TIGRIS: BUSCH GARDENS’ NEW ROLLER COASTER
After going on the traditional roller coasters in Busch Gardenssuch as Montu it’s at SheiKra, I confess that when observing from afar I wasn’t very excited about Tigris. She seemed too small for so much emotion. But, my friends, I was completely wrong. Was amazing.
As the space was small, the challenge was to create a compact and exciting roller coaster. They achieved exactly that. They used the space very well with curves, loops, descents and ascents, as well as a turn on its own axis. All this almost 100 km/h.

There are 46 seconds of back and forth. Yes! Comings and goings, since she goes front and back. It’s all so fast and surprising that it’s impossible to explain. Suddenly, it moves quickly forward and back. After, there are a series of loops. As if all this weren’t enough, Tigris has a propelled climb of 45 meters in height and a spin on its own axis. In fact, one of the falls is so radical that it is almost 90 degrees. Sensational!

Ahh, how heavy the roller coaster is, It is not possible to wear glasses. From what I understand, they will provide a support to attach them to the head in case someone wants to go with them. To store your cell phone and other items, they provide a fanny pack. When in doubt, I thought it would be better to store my glasses in it too.
From up there, the view is incredible. You can see the park and the sky. Ahh, and the fact that the new Busch Gardens roller coaster is called Tigris has a very specific reason: it imitates the agility of the tiger on its 550 meters of steel rails.

Tigris is located in the area of Stanleyvillenext to Jungle. As in all amusement parks, when leaving the roller coaster, we come across a little store full of cool things (and we want to buy them all, right?). The cool thing is that in this case, 5% of the product value goes to the SeaWorld & Busch Gardens Conservation Fund to contribute to the preservation of tigers in the wild.
With the launch of Tigris, Busch Gardens has nine roller coasters in total.
