So I learned recently about the element called a "banana roll", the shape certainly fits the name. It's the element on the Gerstlauer coaster Takabisha, the one that comes after the inverted top hat. I've used this element on a coaster before and seen it used on some other coasters, but this seems relatively new to real coasters. Edit: Inserted better image.

Looks like a cobra roll with a barrel roll instead of two corkscrews at the top. | |

If you look at it from the side, it'll look like a banana. A weird black banana. It looks weird when you don't look at it from the side. | |

I think it would be fun to ride a coaster with that inversion. You'd be leaning to one side of the train, but it would be fun otherwise! | |
