It was known as the Sky Princess prior to the 2007 season.[2]

Ride experience
After the train leaves the station, the ride makes two turns before riders climb the 55-foot (17 m) lift hill. After the 50-foot (15 m) drop, the ride turns and goes up a bunny hill.[3] It is followed by many bunny hills, a tunnel, and even banked turns. Shortly after, the ride hits the brakes and returns the train back to the station.[4]
