The experience starts as you step into the ride. after being secured the arm begins to spin. You are out in the open, spinning at the speed and height of a roller coaster, but with the added thrill of the seat being able to rotate 360 degrees and flip head-over-heels. The ride can be run with an up-charge capacity of 8, or with 16 or 32 seats to offer amusement park capacity of several hundred people per-hour.
Ride Restraint
Riders are restrained by an over-the-shoulder-restraint. The seats and restraint are covered in a layer of soft-foamed polyurethane, which ensures maximum passenger comfort as they rocket in a circle.
