Note on "Scorpion" & "Cheetah Hunt"

The original query mentioned "Scorpion" and "Cheetah Hunt" as water coasters. Correction:

• Scorpion (Tampa) is a classic steel looping coaster—not a water ride.
• Cheetah Hunt (Tampa) is a launched Blitz coaster with a water splash element at the end, but primarily a roller coaster.

Always check the park's official app or website for current ride availability, height restrictions, and seasonal operation.
