Over-banked curve

An over-banked curve is an element common on large steel roller coasters and hybrid roller coasters. It consists of a turn or curve in which the track tilts beyond 90 degrees but less than 135 degrees (the minimum to be considered an inversion), typically in the 100-120 degree range.

The first overbank turn on Millennium Force at Cedar Point

Examples

Expedition GeForce at Holiday Park.
Hades 360 at Mt. Olympus Water & Theme Park.
Hyperion at Energylandia.
Storm Chaser at Kentucky Kingdom.
