New ride at Busch Gardens?

[missyc]

I saw a post earlier today about a new ride at Busch. There was a link to an artical. I can't find it now.
Can anyone help?!
(I want to tell my kids about about it and show them the picture.)

I haven't heard of any new rides being added this year.

Could this be what you are referring to?

Or possibly this?

It's coming to Busch Gardens Tampa.

Here's an article from the St. Petersburg Times:

I'm not too excited about this one. The B&M Dive Machine seems like one of those coasters you ride once and don't re-ride with much enthusiasm.
