THE ZIPPER |
The Zipper is the standard measuring stick to which all other "scary" rides are measured - if you can handle two and a half minutes on the Zipper, you can handle any other ride on a carnival midway!! This ride is lean and mean. The Zipper's 12 passenger cages are all about practicality - just large enough to encase two human bodies - side by side. - Not for the weak-hearted, certainly not for the claustrophobic!. Each cage rotates freely on an off-centre axis, while the cages move around the main boom at 4 rpm. While this is happening, the whole boom rotates on its own axis. This creates a completely chaotic, totally un-natural ride pattern - flipping riders with maximum force, while their knuckles are white - instinctively gripping onto the rungs …for dear life! Definitely not something to take your grandma on! No carnival is complete without a Zipper - no ride even slightly resembles it - it's truly unique and it will always hold a space in any carnival of the future. It's not exactly fun for the whole family, but it will always appeal to a strong minority regular riders. Brave the Zipper with Cole Shows Amusement Company! |
