Orkanen is a Vekoma Suspended Family Coaster at Fårup Sommarland in Blokhus, North Jutland, Denmark. The coaster opened in 2013, and represented a $35,000,000 DKK investment, which was billed as the park's most expensive addition until Fønix opened in 2022.

Overview of Orkanen
A Suspended Family Coaster is a steel inverted roller coaster built by Vekoma designed for families with no inversions. Just like all inverted roller coasters the train runs under the track with the seats directly attached to the wheel carriage. This latter attribute is what sets it apart from the older suspended swinging coaster, which runs under the track, but "swings" via a pivoting bar attached to the wheel carriage.
Woodstock’s Air Rail(formerly Rugrats Runaway Reptar and Flying Ace Ariel Chase) at Kings Island was one of the first Family Inverted Coaster models.
Kenny's Forest Flyer at Dreamworld is a standard 342 m (1,122 ft) model.
