Skywarp is a steel single rail extreme powered coaster model line by Skyline Attractions. Skyline offers three slightly different variations of layouts: The Skywarp (otherwise known as "The Vertical"), the Horizon (otherwise known as "The Horizontal"), and a not yet produced Orbit layout.
Design
Skyline Attractions uses a single rail track type on all of their coasters. The Skywarp product is a small collection of powered coasters that travel back-and-forth, building up speed. All three layouts are similar but feature a different set of elements. The "Vertical" Skywarp starts with a Tire Propelled Launch that's built into the track, then features two Immelmann inversions. The Horizon starts with the cars tilting from an up-right position into a 45° position. The trains are then propelled using a tire that is located off the track and the course traverses an in-line twist, turns around, and crosses over the mentioned in-line twist. The Orbit layout features an unknown form of propulsion but traverses an airtime hill and a cutback inversion in the shape of a "0".
