This is an awesome ride, probably one of the best coasters in the park. The take-off is great and shooting out of the volcano is really cool. If you havent rode this before, check it out!

My #1 favorite coaster of all time, each time you ride it you get that thrill of riding it for the first time, the launch just rockets you at 70 mph and takes you straight up out of a Volcano! How many parks can say they have a ride like that! Three? Maybe? NO! ONE! King's Dominion, Volcano is truly a crowd-pleaser and a one of a kind coaster that simply cannot be cloned.
