Superman la Atracción de Acero Movie World Madrid The floorless roller coaster design is a modification of the standard multiple-inversion steel coaster that features cars with no floors for foot placement. This gives the rider a much more open feeling than the view from older looping coaster trains. Once riders board the trains and lower the over-the-shoulder restraints, the floor on which the riders walk while boarding separates from the train and drops away, leaving the track completely exposed when viewed from above. From the front row of the train, riders see absolutely no part of the train and only the track rushing beneath their feet. Wikipedia does not have an article with this exact name. ...
