An Impulse roller coaster is a form of a launched inverted roller coaster manufactured by Intamin. The first Impulse roller coaster appeared in Japan, and the ride type has since evolved to include four specific layouts, three of these varieties being built in the United States. It uses LIMs to launch a train out of the station and (in most installations) up a vertical spiral. The train then falls backward, is powered again through the station, and heads up a back tower. The train then falls forward, and continues in this fashion for a total of 2½ cycles per ride (three forward launches, two backward). On the final forward launch, with a slightly reduced speed, the train is sent up the front tower, and brakes then deploy on the launch track. The train then slows down and heads back into th

| - Impulse Coaster ist die Bezeichnung eines Stahlachterbahnmodells des Herstellers Intamin, welches erstmals 1998 ausgeliefert wurde und zur Kategorie der Inverted Coaster, Launched Coaster und Shuttle Coaster zählt. Es existiert in drei Varianten: Spike & Spike, Twist & Spike und Twist & Twist. Die Strecke verfügt über eine Beschleunigungsstrecke und zwei 90° steile Türme, die entweder beide gerade, beide verdreht (twisted) oder sowohl gerade als auch verdreht sein können. Die erste Auslieferung, Linear Gale in Tokyo Dome City, ist die einzige Anlage, die über zwei gerade Türme verfügt. Eine Besonderheit stellt Flash: Vertical Velocity in Six Flags Discovery Kingdom dar: Die Anlage der Variante Twist & Spike verfügte ursprünglich über einen geraden und einen verdrehten Turm. Aufgrund der Höhenbeschränkung von 150 Fuß der Stadt wurde die Bahn aber Anfang 2002 umgebaut. Der gerade Turm wurde in der Höhe gekürzt und der verdrehte Turm wurde um 45° gekippt. Aus diesem Grund verfügt der verdrehte Turm nun über eine Inversion. (de)
