Leolandia in Italy is expanding its family ride lineup with a brand-new roller coaster for 2026 – Reversum, a family-friendly spinning coaster manufactured by Mack Rides.
Set to become the largest coaster at Leolandia, Reversum promises fun for riders of nearly all ages with a dynamic spinning motion, smooth pacing, and surprising thrills without extremes.
A Proven Ride Experience
Reversum is based on the same Mack Rides spinning coaster model and track layout as two popular attractions overseas:
-
Sierra Sidewinder at Knott’s Berry Farm (US)
-
Storm Chaser at Paultons Park (UK)
Both of these installations have been well-received by parks and riders alike for delivering engaging family thrills with a controlled intensity level that suits a broad audience.
This model is known for its playful spinning cars that react differently on every ride (especially at the back of the train), a well-paced course with plenty of directional changes, and a compact footprint that packs lots of excitement into a pretty efficient space.
