Norwegian loop

A Norwegian loop is a double-inversion. While ascending, the train inverts before diving towards the ground in a half-loop manoeuvre. The train subsequently rises in another half-loop and once almost inverted, the train rolls out and descends, exiting the element in the same direction as it entered. It is similar to a dive loop followed by an immelmann.

The Norwegian loop first appeared on SpeedMonster which opened in 2006 at TusenFryd in Vinterbro, Oslo, Norway.
