- Take a front-seat ride on Montu, the God of War. Montu is a classic B&M Inverted coaster located at Busch Gardens Tampa in Florida. Despite being 28 years old, it still packs a punch, and is very smooth traversing 7 inversions including the rare Batwing, all whilst your legs dangle below the track.

Wow I love how much they actually leaned in to the swooping avian movement's. Montu being the Avian Egyptian god of war the aggression pairs so well with the diving swoops like a bird snatching up prey from the ground.
Such a fast coaster! Love that first drop. Great stuff!
Nice color scheme on that coaster. The theming is also pretty nice.
The World needs more blue and yellow coasters! Also the whole Egypt area is by far the most visually impressive at Busch Gardens Tampa.
True
Best looking invert along with Alpengeist because of their locations in their respective Gardens parks even after all these years Banshee At Kings doesn’t even come close
In the US, absolutely - I'd say Alpengeist is certainly better situated for an off-ride experience, but Montu has some nice interactions too (though most of the coaster is hard to photograph/video) and is the better coaster. But elsewhere in the world (well Europe, I've only experienced European and US parks so far), the likes of Nemesis at Alton Towers, Black Mamba at Phantasialand, and Katun at Mirabilandia are all more visually stunning as well as being arguably better on-ride.
@@TheThrillHouse You make some excellent points especially about the inverts being more Visually pleasing to look at as well as to ride but in my opinion the three maybe four best inverts are in Europe and America all built by B&M
@@robertd9020 Even the worst B&M invert is a solid coaster, and the best inverts are truly great. It's a shame they've gone out of fashion.
@@TheThrillHouse Yeah they became a Dying breed so did the Floorless Coaster and The Intamin Prehab and Also the Hydraulic Launch Coaster but still the reason is because Newer Models of Coasters like B&M Taller Hypersonic and their Giga Model And Wing Coaster as well the Rmc Hybrid Coaster being the biggest Hit Story of the 10s and that’s why those models died out in popularity after the 00’s
@@robertd9020 Yeah, many models died out due to being unreliable and far too expensive to maintain. And as you say RMC come to town and completely revolutionise the entire industry. Whilst we don't get so many record breaking coasters, the industry is in better shape than ever before.
This reminds me of great white
