Devil's Loop (pl. Diabelska pętla) is a roller coaster located in Legendia. It was moved in 2007 from American Park of Adventure in the United Kindgom[1].

It was the first ever roller coaster in Poland to feature inversions. The second-to-last row of seats faces backwards, akin to DC Rivals HyperCoaster[2][3]. It also features an unusual wheel assembly without a distinguishable up-stop wheel or side wheel. Instead, it has a hybrid up-stop/side wheel that does both jobs. Between the 2018 and 2019 seasons, it underwent an extensive refurbishment that included a name change from Tornado to Devil's Loop[1].

Ride summary

Immediately after leaving the station, the train climbs a 20 meter lift hill, then goes down a right-hand curve into a drop. After the drop, it traverses two consecutive loops and a low turn to the left. It then goes into a right hand helix into the station.

Theme

From 2007 to 2011, when Tic Tac was the sponsor, the logo appeared on the front of the train, at the entrance, as well as on a wall on the station[4].

After the 2018–2019 refurbishment, the station received a mining theme with elements of folklore. The track is green with dark gray supports, however, the running rails are metallic gray. The train has a blue-brown color[1].
