Koamalu Roller Coaster

Koamalu, a Hawaiian themed roller coaster, just opened, and is perfect for thrill-seeking riders! Koamalu means brave, bold, and fearless in Hawaiian cultures. This makes Koamalu an extraordinarily unique roller coaster because it has a Hawaiian theme, very adventurous hills, and bright colors like blue and lime green. During Koamalu, you will have a Hawaiian experience! You will see just how fascinating this exclusive roller coaster is when you ride Koamalu! My roller coaster is ideal for hot summer days because the wait for the ride is in the air-conditioned volcano for your comfort and pleasure. Also, for the passengers’ convenience, when boarding Koamalu, the seats are inside the cooled volcano. The height restriction to ride the roller

Red and yellow lava “strips” blow inside the volcano. When you emerge from the volcano, you gain speeds of 85 miles per hour! It is as if you are being launched. The volcano is realistic in that it gives you, the passenger, the effect of shooting out of a real volcano like hot, fiery lava. Then, at the top of the first hill, you slow down to approximately five to ten miles per hour and accelerate to 90 miles per hour in 1.8 seconds.. At this point, around 56 meters high, the train approaches its highest potential energy, which happens when you are at the tallest peak of the roller coaster. Suddenly, you drop down a steep hill at 90 miles per hour achieving the highest speed. At 90 miles per hour the train also attains its highest kinetic energy and terminal velocity. Also, near the bottom of the hill, a hidden camera will snap a photo and vibrant palm trees hide the camera. After descending to the bottom of the hill, you go up a miniature hill that leads into a heat tunnel. The heat tunnel makes it feel as if you are on the hot, white beaches of Hawaii. Descending from the heat tunnel there is lots of velocity because of its downward force, mass, and direction.Soon after exiting the heat tunnel, you will enter three corkscrews in a row. During these spirals, a parachute will project into the air causing air resistance. These coils symbolize parasailing through the ocean representing

Strong blue support beams run all throughout the roller coaster. This makes the roller coaster safer because the beams hold up and support the rail, or track, to the roller coaster. Each train has two seats across. Then, there are four trains linked together, for a total of eight people to be able to experience the ride at once. A total of two carts will be running, while one train loads passengers, the other train is riding Koamalu. In addition, this eliminates the ride wait time for passengers. Finally, my crew and I test the Koamalu everyday to make sure all safety features are working properly. In conclusion, the Koamalu is a great, fun, and fantastic roller coaster to
