  Hydra the Revenge @ Dorney Park - Theme Park Critic - Nation's Best Theme Parks and Rides
The zero G roll which was the best place to take pictures of the ride and it was a fun part of a ride then u go through the next inversion then the cobra roll and then thats pretty much it.
The Jo-Jo roll is totally awesome as well as the other zero G roll and having finally been on a floorless with a zero G roll my suspicions have been affirmed that Dominator at Geauga Lake would be one of the best B&M's in the world if it only had a zero G roll.
The cobra roll caused the ride to lose a lot of its speed, unfortunately, but precious airtime was not entirely destroyed on the two hills that follow.

The Cobra Roll has a catchy name and sounds tough, doesn't it.
Smoothly raise the nose until you are in a 45 degree nose high climb and release the elevator.
Instead of a smooth roll on the up line and down line, some patterns call for 2 points of a 4-point roll.

Ended up with Stainless double roll bar from Don with a Hella brake light mounted in the middle of the bar (milling of the brake light mounting is about $80).
I had actually ordered a roll bar from RMC in W.A. with the light in it but when it turned up it was blu$$y awful....wrong bend radius and looked like they just used a pipe bender and crimped the tube at the bends.

I measured the roll bar supplied by Pilgrim to check that it would fit OK over the mounting posts provided, ensuring that none of the zinc coating on the chassis would get in the way.
Regards your roll bar, I suggest you talk to one of the guy's in the factory, (rather than Den), about your problem, and suggest they either send you a modified roll bar, or you get estimates to have your roll bar or your chassis modified or replaced and they re-imburse you for the costs incurred.
Never Ever compromise on safety, it is easy to roll a car, whatever the centre of gravity, all you need to do is lose it on a corner, and off into the ditch you go and ditches and feilds are never flat and one tyre digging in will roll you.

 New Aircraft Maneuvers   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Cobra: This maneuver is only useful in an atmosphere due to the fact that air drag is an important factor in the maneuver and can only be done by aircraft with engines that the vector of the thrust can be changed.
Disadvantages: The Cobra maneuver has the disadvantage that while being done, the aircraft has a +2 bonus to be hit due to being a larger target and reduce any stealth by half.
The second problem is with collision, if the skill roll for Cobra is missed, the pilot must make a second piloting roll and if missed, the chasing aircraft pilot must make a piloting roll.

 SFNE Central Forums -> The Chiller Gets Stuck Upside Down With 20 Riders
Half of cobra roll: THis isnt forcefully possible, because the train would go to either the center of the roll or back to the ground, and even if it managed to get stuck there, only a few riders would be upside down, not the whole train.
Because the roll is on a slant, the train would simply go backwards down it and get caught between the cobra Roll and the Zero-G roll.
It was on the cobra roll of robin and only half of the train was upside down, that had to get the other half right side up to get the people off the coaster.

The only potential problem is that the roll bar is suppose to be welded to the frame of the Cobra.
Of course this means the roll bar can't be chromed or even painted (until after the bar is mounted to the car).
If using a connector like shown in the picture is "legal" for a roll bar then I can weld in the roll bar, cut through the legs, remove the bar to have it plated, and then install the bar with connectors.

The Cobra Verde singer/guitarist was discussing the films of Leone, Kurosawa and Tarantino, but he could very well have been describing the tension that informs his band.

The cobra roll has been completed and track for the zero-g roll and turn-around has arrived.
The outter edge of the roll has two supports instead of one at the center, and one of those is supported from both sides with an upside-down "U." I suspect Raptor's support that keeps creeping off of its footer might have something to do with that.
Before anyone starts complaining about the exit section of the cobra roll having a brake installed, please remember that there is a chance it won't be used.

The “JoJo” roll, which was named for one of the long-time maintenance workers at the park who suggested the element, is a slow rolling inversion that will leave riders dangling upside down for a brief moment as the train slowly negotiates the inversion.
Since Hydra is not the fastest floorless coaster, this cobra roll is noticeably smaller than most other floorless cobra rolls.
After the cobra roll, the train goes up into a little “bunny hop” and a drop where riders get a decent pop of airtime before going through the last inversion, another spiraling corkscrew.
