Diamondback is Kings Island's newest coaster, set to debut in April 2009. The ride reaches a height of 230 feet and a top speed of 80mph on its 5,282 foot long track. The $22 million dollar Bolliger & Mabillard hyper coaster is Kings Island's largest single investment since its opening in 1972. Diamondback utilizes Bolliger & Mabillard's new hyper train style, currently in use on only one other coaster (Behemoth at Canada's Wonderland) and will be the first hyper coaster to feature a splashdown. Bolliger & Mabillard is recognized as the leader in high quality roller coasters, having 20/50 steel roller coasters on the Amusement Today Top 50 Steel Roller Coasters list, more than any other manufacturer.

@horsegal1121 It takes about 30-45 seconds to get to the top. But it does seem longer.

I go to Kings Island every weekend but after I rode Millennium Force, this rollercoaster seems kinda suckish... The Beast is still my favorite!

when I rode diamondback, it literally sucked the air out of me! haha this ride is intense! seriously! right before you're about to go down the first hill, you look down and see no tracks whatsoever. It literally pretty much goes straight down. The hills are so high! It took like, almost 5 minutes to get up to the top of the first hill. What a ride!!
