Steel Venom is an impulse coaster. What happens is you are launched out of the station and up the spirally bit of the upward track. It then goes back down, through the station and up the other end. It does this several times, getting higher and higher. On the third backwards climb, you are locked in position before dropping back down again.  It's a good coaster but the hold can be a bit juddery, and the launch can "pin" you...especially if you're male!
