Hair Raiser is a steel floorless roller coaster at Ocean Park Hong Kong in Hong Kong Island, Hong Kong, China. It was manufactured by Bolliger & Mabillard and opened on December 8, 2011. It is the twelfth floorless coaster ever built.

Experience

After riders have boarded, the restraints are secure and the train is dispatched, the train takes about a half turn to the left before beginning to the climb the Chain lift hill. As the train reaches the top of the lift hill, the train goes through a pre-drop before making a sharp turn to the left towards the first drop. When the train reaches the bottom of the drop, it goes through a loop followed by a slight turn to the left afterwards goes through the second out of four elements, a dive loop. After, the trains goes over a small airtime/bunny hill and goes through the zero-g roll. Immediately after, the train approaches the final element of the coaster, an Immelmann loop. The train then makes a right turn followed by a left which is followed by another right turn leading into the final brake run. After passing the brake run, the train makes a right turn going through another set of brakes before entering the station.[1][2]
