Interlocking Corkscrews-http://www.coastergallery.com/2000/sfo08.html
Dive Loop-Opposite of the immelman, half twist, then a half loop.
Trim Brake- A set of brakes used somewhere in the course of the ride, these are used to take off some speed. Trim Brakes are commonly used on wooden coasters to keep the trains from tearing the tracks apart. Trim Brakes should not be confused with Block Brakes, which is a straight portion of track in the middle of a ride with brakes.
Barrel Roll-http://www.coastergallery.com/2001/AW31.html They are on straight pieces of track.
While Zero G rolls-http://www.coastergallery.com/2000/hp05.html(foreground) are usually at the tops of hills, providing negative gs while twisting.

Please disregard anything said by me that is incomprehensible, incoherent, or just dumb. I am and will be drained from the arduous school year, thank you!
oh and trim brakes are commonly used on steel coasters to lower inteensity is some areas.
