Description
This is the Sheikra at Busch Gardens, T.B., about a month after it opened. It is North America's first diving coaster, another by Bolliger & Mabillard. (& dang, it's so smooth!)Related content

Well, I get anxiety EVERY time I'm in line for it. The drop worries me, but after that it's great!

SheiKra is awesome. Can't wait until Griffon at BGE opens!

With floorless trains too! Even though I'm closer to Williamsburg I like BGA better but BGE is still a great park.
