The Vekoma Junior Coaster is a model of steel roller coaster built by Vekoma.[1] It was originally introduced by Vekoma as the "Roller Skater" due to the roller skate shaped cars found on some of the installations,[2] and is credited with greatly influencing the concept of the junior roller coaster, which is found at many theme parks today.
