SLINGSHOT
This innovative Slingshot amusement device is by far one the most exciting vertical amusement rides available today. The slingshot machine does not utilize rubber ropes or bungee cords but is powered by a patented spring propulsion device incorporating up to 720 specially designed springs. The Slingshot can be custom designed to cause minimal disruption to existing venues. This includes
tower designs that consume a few square yards of land and use elevated gondola loading platforms where space is at a premium. VOMATRON
The Vomatron can best be described as a giant propeller with seats on each end! Similar to the centrifuge used by astronauts to simulate rocket acceleration except it is mounted vertically. It is powered by 6 huge electric motors that rotate the giant 200 foot arm at speeds of more than 70 miles per hour, throwing the capsules into extreme spins putting 4gs of force upon its unwary passages. Then just as they think it is all over... We spin it in reverse with the same degree of pure torture as before. The passengers are restrained by an overhead lap bar which can be fixed in different positions to match various body sizes, the seats and the overhead lap bar are covered in a layer of soft foamed polyurethane which ensures maximum passenger comfort while they undergo the stresses of this ride. The overhead lap bar is restrained with a double locking rack mechanism which is hydraulically actuated. This locking mechanism can only be opened with an operator activated release key, therefore guaranteeing maximum rider safety.
