The Lindy-Loop ride opened at Olentangy Park in 1932.[1] It was built by Spillman Engineering Company.
According to Coasterpedia, the ride "consists of two-person benches that are mounted to two runners on each side that bend and form a loop-like appearance around the bench. Riders traverse around a circular track while the seats rock back and forth freely throughout the ride. Riders are able to control their rocking by shifting their weight in the seats from front to back and back to front."[2]
It is unknown how long the ride lasted at Olentangy Park, having been mentioned only once in the Columbus Dispatch.[1] It most likely was in operation for part of the 1932 season.
Later versions of the ride were called the "Alan Herschell Looper."
