Highest Coaster Inversion?

Vassk, what you're saying is impossible. It's not physically possible on a coaster using solely gravity for momentum to go higher than the point it was dropped from.

I would have to agree with Volcano: The Blast Coaster at 155ft.

Vassk what you are saying is impossible without some sort of launch and DF doesn't have a launch. I do believe though, that while DF was still around that it had one of the highest inversions.

ACE15, Fujiyama is a 200+ ft. hyper-twister with no inversions.

Fujiyama has no inversions.

I would consider M-Forces first overbanked turn as an inversion...if Mantis' inclined loop is an inversion than the overbanked turns are too. I think the overbanked turn is only around 150ft. though right? Not sure on the exact number.

kneemeister said: The Tallest looping coaster in the world is Son of Beast. The highest inversion is Viper at SFMM.

He is correct!! I couldn't have said it better myself.

B&M Tycoon: I believe the first overbank on MF is 168'.
