Viper

Viper had two inversions.  The first one was high up in the air and can be seen partially hidden behind the red circles.

Each seat had two separate over-the-shoulder restraints as well as a ratcheting lapbar.  Nearly every other coaster with over-the-shoulder "horse collar" harnesses has a single U-shaped piece that goes over both shoulders, but Viper's trains had two harnesses on top of each seat... one for each shoulder.  Between the uncomfortable restraints and the roughness of the ride, the coaster wasn't very popular.  I rode it, and I didn't like it at all.  While I usually don't like to see coasters torn down, I wasn't upset to see Viper demolished.
