Batman: The Ride is a steel 4D Free Spin roller coaster in the DC Universe area of Six Flags Discovery Kingdom in Vallejo, California. It was built by S&S Worldwide, designed by Alan Schilke, and opened on May 25, 2019.
Riders sit in seats on either side of the track, some facing each other. An elevator-style vertical chain lift raises each car 120 feet, and magnets on the cars control head-over-heels flips as the car drops and dives along the course, including two beyond-vertical drops. RCDB lists a 1,019-foot track, a 55-foot drop and a top speed of 38 mph; it counts no inversions because the flips are rotations of the seats, not of the track.
Five cars seat eight riders each. The minimum height is 48 inches and the maximum 77 inches.
