The ride
Dominator is a 200-foot tall, three-tower structure. One of the towers features a
Space Shot ride, where 12 riders are blasted upwards to a height of 160 feet at speeds of up to 50 mph. The second tower is a
Turbo Drop ride, where 12 riders are lifted up 175 feet then released downwards at speeds of up to 40 mph. Both rides use compressed air to power the attraction.
A total of twelve passengers may ride either of the attractions at one time. Riders sit in outward-facing, open-air seats with their backs to the towers and their legs left dangling.
