Falcon's Fury | Busch Gardens Tampa

Introducing Falcon’s Fury, Busch Gardens® Tampa’s newest thrill ride that lets you soar and dive like a magnificent bird of prey.

You’ll climb nearly 300 feet to an incredible view of the terrain beneath you, then pivot 90 degrees in midair to a daring dive position, eyes fixed on the ground far below. An instant later, you'll plunge at 60mph straight down to where you started, with speed, power and adrenaline like you’ve never experienced before.


Take to the skies with Falcon’s Fury – only at Busch Gardens. Rising Spring 2014.





In short an Intamin drop tower (stated by BGT's Jim Dean) that's 335 feet tall and drops you completely FACE DOWN!!! Wow!

A bird of prey themed ride that drops straight down? Where have I heard that before?

But seriously, look awesome. Great new twist on a concept that's always a winner.

I so excited for this ride since I live so close to the park this is going to bed awesome and scary too. I hope the tilting effect will work in the years to come like other tilting drop towers have come to then. I can't believe it's going to be 300ft wow this will be cool and they should of moved sandstorm somewhere else the park whatever! It'll be like 4 seconds probably for the drop and I thought the giant drop at six flags great America was scary, tall, and fast yesterday ahh I can't wait now!!!!
