In each car, riders are arranged 2 across in 2 rows, for a total of 28 riders per train. The coaster opened with yellow track and blue supports, later being repainted to featured orange track and purple supports before recieving its current scheme. The ride has been closed since late 2021. The supports were repainted once again, this time to yellow. įor part of the 2016 season, V² was closed for unknown reasons.įor the 2019 season, the ride became part of a new area called DC Universe and the name was changed to The Flash: Vertical Velocity. Originally, the ride had yellow track and blue supports. įor the 2007 season, V² was repainted with red track and maroon supports. These modifications were carried out by Valley Iron. To lower the height, the front tower was tilted to a 45-degree angle, creating the first twisted in-line rollback in the world, and the reverse was tower lowered to 150 feet while still being vertical. During the 2002 season, the ride was temporarily closed while the track was shortened from 186 feet to 150 feet. Eventually, the park chose to modify the ride. Six Flags had to either modify the ride's height, or remove V² completely. Even though Six Flags Discovery Kingdom advertised the ride's height as 150 feet, authorities could tell that the ride was in clear violation of the height limit. However, this violated the city of Vallejo's height limit of 150 feet. When V² first opened, it was 186 feet tall and both sides of the track were vertical. The ride was set to open on May 24, 2001, but the opening was delayed to June 8. Six Flags Discovery Kingdom announced the addition of V² in early 2001. It was built by Intamin and opened on Jas V²: Vertical Velocity. The Flash: Vertical Velocity is a steel launched shuttle inverted roller coaster located at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom in Vallejo, California, USA.
