caption_attribution_description: English: Diamondback's splashdown from the station at Kings Island amusement park.
context_page_description: The Hyper Coaster is a model line from Bolliger & Mabillard. It has produced 20 models 21 years of production, one of the more successful models manufactured by the company.
context_section_description: Every B&M Hyper starts with a long lift hill, followed by a long drop with an average angle of 71°. Then the roller coaster has a number of airtime hills that feature Ejector and Floater airtime. Then, depending on the location of the Coaster, there is an over banked turn or something of its nature to change the direction of the coaster. Following this there is a turn around section utilising either a hammerhead turn or on larger scale coasters: a treble clef.
  Diamondback at Kings Island is the only B&M Hyper to feature a splashdown, where the Coaster goes through a pool of water and a massive fountain is pushed out the back creating a fountain effect when the train goes through. Shambhala features a similar element, however instead of water being shot out of the back, while the coaster passes through, either side of the track small water cannons shoot up creating a sort of passage way for the roller coaster to pass through.
