This is the world's first drop tower that drops riders face first. It was installed here in the Pantopia section of the park and opened on September 2, 2014. It is a Skyjump tower from Intamin and is 335 feet tall. Riders oard the gondolas in a sitting position and the gondolas rotate inwards at the drop tower. The ride holds riders between 1 and 6 seconds before dropping riders. The gondolas swing out to a seating section just before the ride hits the brakes.
