VALLEJO, Calif., Aug. 28, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- What goes around, comes around, and in the case of the new Dare Devil Chaos Coaster opening at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom, guests will find an exciting new thrill ride guaranteed to get their adrenaline pumping.

Dare Devil Chaos Coaster is a single looping coaster that builds anticipation as riders seated back to back travel backwards and forwards until momentum takes them at top speed revolutions, only to stop upside down at 70 feet high and reverse direction.

Six Flags Discovery Kingdom will open the all new Dare Devil Chaos Coaster in 2015, a pendulum-style thrill ride that takes passengers on 360 degree revolutions. This ride brings the total coasters at the park to nine. (PRNewsFoto/Six Flags Discovery Kingdom)
