Dueling Dragons The Dueling Dragons are two dueling roller coasters at Universal Studios' Islands of Adventure. The ride is the only inverted dual roller-coaster, in the world. Dueling Dragons is composed of a red carriage, named fire, and a blue one, named ice. It features a layout where the two trains share a common hill, but then take two completely unique courses. The ride features three near misses with the trains, two of which bring riders feet within 12 inches of riders on the opposite train. The ride was constructed by Bolliger and Mabillard of Switzerland. (references)
