THIS RIDE FEATURES

an arm which can be elevated and lowered by using a hydraulic cylinder. Attached to the main arm is a circular structure with spokes. Each pair of spokes hold a suspended car with room for 2 passengers, sitting one behind the other.

The ride starts speeding up the horizontal rotations, which causes the cars to tilt such that they are at a 90-degree angle to the ground. Riders are held in their seats by centrifugal force. Once at full speed, the disk is tilted upwards bringing up all of the cars in an upright vertical position. At this point, riders follow a circular path similar to a vertical loop on a rollercoaster, traveling upside-down with each revolution of the ride.
