- Gerstlauer Euro-Fighter
The
Gerstlauer Euro-Fighter is a popular roller coaster design built by Gerstlauer. It was launched in 2003 and now has many installations around the world, including a number yet to be completed. The trademark feature of the roller coaster is its 'beyond vertical' drop, which reaches an angle greater than 90 degrees. Although the majority of Eurofigters are custom designed for each installation, every design so far has included the trademark drop. A number of different track elements are possible, including vertical loops, diving loops,barrel roll s etc. In addition, every Euro-Fighter has a vertical chainlift hill , often (but not always) preceding the 'beyond vertical' drop.Riders are transported in individual cars around the track, which feature two rows of four seats. The cars have over-the-shoulder restraints and may be themed (to an extent) according to the customer's requirements.
