The Looping (TL59) was a steel roller coaster model from Pinfari. It was the first inverting roller coaster produced by the Italian company. It was introduced in the early 1980s and only three were produced. It was superseded by the more compact Zyklon ZL42 and ZL50 looping roller coasters.
Design
The roller coaster has a single vertical loop with a diameter of 28.5 feet. It has a mass of 70 tons.
One of the three roller coasters, now located in Iraq, has an unusual support structure. The other two have more typical supports seen on other Pinfari roller coasters.
Trains
2 cars per train. In each car, riders are arranged 2 across in 2 rows, for a total of 8 riders per train. Riders are held in by over-the-shoulder restraints.
