Robb Alvey interviews Mark Rose, VP of Engineering and Jim Dean, Busch Gardens Park President:

Hooray! After months of following the construction of Cheetah Hunt, the media day is here!

The ride looks....AWESOME! (And it actually rides as good as it looks!)

This has to be one of the most amazing works of "coaster art" I've ever seen!

Going up....

Falling back down!

For you coaster nerds...brake fins! Hooray!

And here are the little guys that make the train go FAST!

The Cheetahs....they look peaceful now...but they will chew you a new....yeah...you know what!

This is "Cheetah Run", which is the animal exhibit right next to the coaster.

See! We weren't lying!

This cheetah looks like they are on the hunt!

The ride itself is amazing! Here you can see it hop over the sky ride.

How would you classify Cheetah Hunt? It's an "extreme family coaster."

It has a lot of awesome thrilling elements...plenty of airtime...

Lots of speed throughout the ride...

...even goes upside down!

The Cheetahs seem to approve.

The launch sections do take you by surprise and are REALLY effective!

It's in a different class than Kumba, Montu, or SheiKra. This IS an "extreme" ride, but it's not so over the top and intimidating that it can totally be enjoyed by the whole family.

"Cheetah Hunt...it's kind of like California Screamin' on steroids!"
