Whirlwind at RCDB

The WhirlWind is a roller coaster at Seabreeze Amusement Park in Rochester, New York. It is where Quantum Loop stood until Winter 2004 when the WhirlWind was added.

History

The Whirlwind previously traveled Spain with Family Fraguas. It was painted orange and silver and operated under the name "Cyber Space" (different from the one that traveled Germany with Bruch and Kaiser). Before arriving at Seabreeze it was repainted blue and yellow (the same colors as the Spinning Racer that travels with Angela and Oscar Bruch).
