Boomerang is a Vekoma roller coaster currently operating at Parque de la Costa since 1998.

Design

Ride

When the coaster starts, the train is pulled backwards up the lift hill, then dropped through the loading gate through a cobra roll and then a vertical loop. At the end of this cycle, the train is pulled up the lift hill at the end of the track, then dropped once again allowing the train to go back through the loops backwards. This is the standard Vekoma Boomerang roller coaster design found at forty-three different amusement parks worldwide.

Trains

Single train with 7 cars. Riders are arranged 2 across in 2 rows for a total of 28 riders.
