Sequoia Adventure is an S&S inverted Screaming Squirrel steel roller coaster located in Gardaland, Italy. The ride opened in 2005. Riders spend a considerable time inverted, with 3 'saxophone' inversions where the cars turn 180 degrees onto a flat inverted section of track.
Ride experience
After departing the station, the car makes a 180 degree right turn and begins to climb the 98.4ft lift hill. After reaching the top, it then goes along a short straight piece of track before entering the first saxophone inversion. The car then comes out of the inversion, goes along another straight piece of track and proceeds to do the same thing again. After exiting the second inversion, it travels along a small airtime hill before doing one more saxophone inversion. It then proceeds to do a 180 degree right turn back to the station.
