Jetline / Gröna Lund

Gröna Lund's Jetline is, without a doubt, among the most intense rides in the nordic countries. It contains numerous banked turns with lots of vertical G-force. The ride is famous among the coaster enthusiasts for its second drop, a compact 180 degree twist taken at a way too fast speed.

The coaster was designed by Herr Achterban, Anton Schwarzkopf. He's considered to be the father of the modern steel coaster and some also say he's the designer of the wildest coasters in the world.

In 2000 Jetline was partially modified by Gerstlauer. The first drop was made bigger and steeper, but in turn the small bump which was at the bottom of the original drop was removed.
