It accelerates to a maximum speed of 53В mph (85В km/h) before entering the 'step-up under-flip inverted roll' element.ДЄfter turning left out of the inversion, the train goes up a hill into a 180-degree stall featuring several head chopper beams. The train will then ascend up its first hill of 100 feet (30В m), followed by a curved drop at 78 degrees вЂ“ re-profiled as a steeper drop from the original Roar coaster. As the train departs the station, it enters several small 'bunny hills' and turns, reminiscent of pre-lift elements on Twisted Colossus.

The roller coaster would also receive new trains themed to the Joker comic book character and would feature three inversions, including a new element marketed as a вЂњstep-up under-flip inverted rollвЂќ.Д«ased on the success of previous roller coaster conversions in its partnership with Rocky Mountain Construction, Six Flags anticipated that Roar would benefit from the overhaul and transition into The Joker. The renovation would be performed by Rocky Mountain Construction using the company's patented I-Box steel track technology on all of the original wooden coaster supports. Several weeks later on September 3, 2015, plans were revealed to convert the ride into a steel-tracked coaster called The Joker for the 2016 season. In July 2015, Six Flags announced that Roar at Discovery Kingdom would be closing on August 16, 2015. The coaster featured a height of 94 feet (29В m), a first drop of 85 feet (26В m) and a top speed of 50В mph (80В km/h). When it debuted on May 14, 1999, Roar was the park's first wooden roller coaster and one of its first rides overall during the transition of adding amusement park rides to the marine mammal park. Roar was a roller coaster at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom constructed by Great Coasters International. The original Roar roller coaster was constructed by Great Coasters International and opened in 1999. This hybrid configuration was implemented by Rocky Mountain Construction and is themed to the Joker, a comic book character villain featured in DC Comics publications. The ride opened on May 29, 2016, as a rebuild of former wooden roller coaster Roar, adding a new steel track on top of Roar's wooden support structure. The Joker is a steel roller coaster at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom in Vallejo, California.
