Valravn

I really enjoyed riding Valravn.  My only real complaint was that the ride seemed rather short.  It has a fantastic drop and a few nice loops, but I would have enjoyed a longer experience.  This picture shows how the massive Immelmann Loop is the only element between the huge first drop and the mid-course brakes.

On the other hand, Valravn is the world's longest Dive Coaster, so I shouldn't really complain about its length.  It has a lot more to it than the first Dive Coaster, Oblivion at Alton Towers in the United Kingdom.  That coaster, which is only a third as long as this coaster, consists of just a large dive into a tunnel and a simple turn back to the station.
