has gloss | eng: A dueling roller coaster features two (or more) roller coasters, usually with a similar layout, built close to each other. The rides are designed to do just as the name indicates: to duel. The coaster's layout often consists of strategic maneuvering to produce near-misses between the two coaster trains, designed to induce a greater adrenaline rush for the rider than a stand alone roller coaster. As of 2009, the only inverted dueling coaster in the world is at Islands of Adventure, Orlando, Florida . The Dueling Dragons coasters reach a top speed of about 55 MPH (85 km/h) and pass within 12 inches (30 cm, or 1 foot) of each other at some points. |
