Dive coasters
A held moment on a vertical edge, then a steep release — signature B&M dive machines.
Held drops and dive moments
When the train pauses before the fall, anticipation becomes part of the element.
Bolliger & Mabillard (B&M)
Swiss manufacturer known for smooth inverts, hypers, dives, and wing coasters.
Centripetal force in loops
Loops are engineered so the track pushes you into the seat — not so you “hold on by gravity.”
