This sound effect can be found on Cartoon Trax Volume 1, which was made by The Hollywood Edge. It was originally a Disney sound effect, and should not be confused with Joel Valentine Rapid Swishes 01 or TWIRL, CARTOON - FRISBEE TWIRL BY, CONSTANT from Hanna-Barbera Sound Effects Library due to sounding similar.

This sound was known for its use in SpongeBob SquarePants and other TV shows.

In the summer of 1992, The Hollywood Edge added this sound effect to the Cartoon Trax Volume 1 library. In 2014, The Hollywood Edge went out of business, due to bankruptcy. After that, Sound Ideas took over to acquire it, along with other The Hollywood Edge sounds.

This sound has still been used in most media today, along with other Disney cartoon sounds from the library.

This original Disney sound effect has many whooshes (or "whips"), which vary in pitch, often ascending and eventually unsteady balances of pitches.
