"Suspended"

This is a newer and specialized type of roller coaster train. To give riders a feeling of floating, the track is located above the cars so riders can see below them. Several superhero theme rides have used this design to add to the realism of the theme. Some examples are the Big Bad Wolf at Busch Gardens Williamsburg and Ninja at Six Flags Magic Mountain. These are able to swing freely to the sides.
