Acrobat (Japanese: アクロバット, romanizedAkurobatto) is a flying roller coaster built by Swiss ride manufacturers Bolliger & Mabillard (B&M), located at Nagashima Spa Land in Kuwana, Mie Prefecture, Japan. The coaster debuted on 18 July 2015.

The 1,021-metre (3,350 ft) long track is 43 metres (141 ft) tall and features four inversions: a pretzel loop, two inline twists, and a corkscrew. The ride is a clone of another of B&M’s flying coasters, Manta, located at SeaWorld Orlando in Florida.[1]
