Torbellino
Torbellino is Parque Diversiones' spinning roller coaster in San José, described on the official page as combining a classic montaña rusa with an extra twist that turns the lap into a whirlwind. The park lists Giros, Velocidad, and Familiar tags, a 1.20 m height minimum, and a four-rider capacity with a high adrenaline rating. Atlas seeds the ride from parquediversiones.com and leaves manufacturer and opening year empty until Tier-1 sources name them.

Verified on official park listing
Torbellino described as montaña rusa with giro adicional; 1.20 m minimum on parquediversiones.com/atracciones/torbellino.
Background
Torbellino appears on Parque Diversiones' official attraction page as a compact coaster that mixes classic montaña rusa pacing with an added spin. Rider rules on that page set a 1.20 m minimum and a four-person capacity under Giros, Velocidad, and Familiar labels.
This Atlas row comes from the Central America & Mexico region pipeline using only the park's Spanish copy for facts. We do not invent manufacturer attribution or opening dates when the official page is silent.
In the La Uruca lineup, Torbellino fills the family-thrill slot between gentler flats and higher-intensity steel like Bocaracá, and future media or Places GPS can attach to this slug without reshuffling the park bundle.
