The amusement park said the new and improved El Rio Lento will have a new lift hill and two big drops, including a giant, steep nosedive.
The current three-and-a-half-minute ride, which was first introduced in 1963, moves riders along at 15 mph and takes thrill-seekers as high as 30 feet in the air.
