Twist Coaster Robin (ツイストコースター ロビン) was a steel roller coaster located at Yomiuriland in Inagi, Tokyo, Japan.
While it shared similar elements to El Loco roller coasters, this roller coaster was designed and built by Japanese company Sansei Technologies, Inc., the largest share holder of S&S Worldwide.

Single car trains. Riders are arranged 2 across in 2 rows for a total of 4 riders per car.
Incident[edit | edit source]
On March 19, 2014, a car ascending the lift hill rolled back around five feet and crashed into a car in the station. None of the three riders were injured.[1] After two years and many attempts to reopen the ride, Yomiuriland eventually demolished Twist Coaster Robin in March 2016.
