Blue Tornado, Suspended looping coaster at Gardaland, Italy
The Blue Tornado roller coaster stretches 765 meters through the air, reaching speeds of 80 kilometers per hour with five complete inversions during each ride.
The installation of this Vekoma-manufactured steel coaster in 1998 marked a significant expansion phase for Gardaland, introducing advanced roller coaster technology to Italy.
The design incorporates a Panavia Tornado fighter jet model above the station, reflecting Italy's military aviation heritage and technological advancement.
Riders must measure between 140 and 200 centimeters in height to access the attraction, which accommodates 1500 visitors per hour across three separate trains.
The extended track layout features an additional helix compared to standard Suspended Looping Coaster models, creating a longer ride duration of 102 seconds.
