SheiKra

SheiKra was the first Dive Coaster to incorporate an inversion.  This prodigious 145-foot Immelmann Loop is the ride's only inversion.

The first two Dive Coasters lacked inversions.  Every one built after SheiKra has at least one inversion.  12 subsequent Diving Coasters were built with 1, 2, or 3 loops.  One Dive Coaster, 2019's Yukon Striker at Canada's Wonderland, has 4 inversions!
