 Dueling Dragons
Universal's Islands of Adventure
Dueling Dragons located in The Lost Continent at Universal's Islands of Adventure theme park in Orlando is without a doubt one of the most incredible steel coasters ever built. Dueling Dragons is the first ever, inverted, dual tracked, dueling roller coaster . Each side is themed after a different dragon, one called Fire and the other, Ice. On five different spots on Dueling Dragons the trains duel each other, at times passing within only 18 inches of each other. Each track is 3,200 feet long, but features its own unique layout, each with five inversions.
