Desert Storm is a double looping roller coaster located at Castles N' Coasters, an amusement park in Phoenix, Arizona.[1] It is one of the two roller coasters there, the other being the smaller Patriot roller coaster. Desert Storm passes over top of the Li'l Indy go-cart track and extremely close to Splashdown, the park's log flume. The track has a green and white color scheme and the queue line passes by the Flying Bugs and Spinning Tops kiddie rides, climbs stairs and enters the boarding area.
Desert Storm is also briefly featured in the Macgillivray Freeman film Dream Big.
After boarding the train, it moves forward and begins going up the hill. At the top, it takes a narrow turn and takes a steep dive, does its first loop, makes a wide turn, does its second loop, does a 360 degree turn that interlocks with the second loop, makes a wide turn and does another 360 degree turn, takes another large drop as it makes a last wide turn, and returns to the station.
The roller coaster has one train that has seven cars, each car with two rows of two seats, four seats per car, and in all seats twenty-eight people per ride. It has a chain lift hill and lap bar restraint.
