 As "Blue Hawk" departs the station, it turns to the right, dropping slightly before another right turn to start up the 122-foot-tall lift hill.Upon cresting the lift, the roller coaster dives downward to the right before swooping up into the first major element, a two-inversion butterfly.Exiting the butterfly, the train enters a wide-radius 270-degree curve to the left, setting up the third inversion, a reverse sidewinder.
