SheiKra is a Bolliger & Mabillard diving roller coaster located at Busch Gardens Tampa in Tampa, Florida. SheiKra was the first dive machine coaster in North America. Two years after its opening, SheiKra was converted into a floorless dive roller coaster because of Griffon at Busch Gardens Williamsburg, with its revolutionary trains, made to enhance the experience. The name SheiKra is derived from a Shikra, a hawk that is known to dive straight down for its prey.
