Curse of Novgorod

The train departs from the station, and travels through a small indoor dark ride section filled with special effects. The train then drops down a small dip which leads onto the launch track. The train is then accelerated from 20 to 100 km/h in 1.4 seconds, immediately into a hard banked turn to the right, curving upwards, and out of the building. The train passes a top-hat which provides a moment of airtime, before dropping back down. The train then travels through a large overbanked turn to the left and into a pretzel-turn. Following the pretzel-turn, the train travels through a heartline-roll and onto a brake run which slows the train to a halt before entering the show building once more. The train then climbs a 90 degree vertical lift hill with more special effects in complete darkness. The train crests the top of the lift hill and drops down a 97 degree, beyond vertical drop. The train then moves into a quick banked turn to the left, and onto a straight track , which has brakes to slow it down. The train then rises up a small hill, and onto the final brake run, which leads back into the station.

The 97° drop makes the ride the steepest dark ride rollercoaster in the world, and the steepest roller coaster in Germany. It is the first combination of a Euro-Fighter and a Launched roller coaster.
