Busch Gardens theme park in Tampa, Florida, US will open the world's fastest and steepest hybrid coaster in March.
Iron Gwazi, manufactured by Rocky Mountain Construction, is a wood and steel hybrid coaster that is also the tallest of its kind in North America.
Opening on 11 March, Iron Gwazi plunges riders from a 206ft-tall peak into a 91-degree drop and reaches top speeds of 76mph.
Riders on the crocodile-inspired ride will experience a dozen "airtime" moments, including three inversions.
The ride is the reincarnation of the former wooden rollercoaster, Gwazi, which opened in 1999 and closed permanently in 2015.
Roller coaster enthusiasts are already describing the new ride – which combines the nostalgia of a wooden coaster with technical innovations enabled by its steel coaster elements – as the "best roller coaster in the world".
Busch Gardens is owned by Seaworld Entertainment.
