Volcano Pictures

Amusement Park Pictures > Kings Dominion > Roller Coasters > Volcano Pictures

Volcano was the first inverted coaster to feature a launch rather than a chain lift.

A look at the entire coaster. The big building behind Volcano is the Flight Of Fear roller coaster.

The entrance to the well themed Volcano.

While waiting to ride, the queue weaves along the top level of this building. The bottom is a gift shop which you exit through after your ride.

The loading station at the base of the volcano.

You exit the loading area, make this short left turn and then are immediately launched.

The volcano periodically blows a huge fireball.

After the first launch, you turn back towards the volcano and hit the second set of LIM's (Linear Induction Motors) and are given another thrust of speed to make the vertical climb and inversion out of the top of the volcano - right where the fireball was just blowing out.

The layout of the coaster is little more than a series of inline twists and turns.
