Spinning at 24 revolutions-per-minute, the STARSHIP 2000 uses centrifugal force to float passengers off of their seats giving them the feeling of weightlessness. Touted as the best thrill ride in the amusement industry, the STARSHIP 2000 can seat up to 45 passengers.
About the Tilt-A-Whirl
One of the world’s most popular amusement park rides, the Tilt-A-Whirl consists of seven freely-spinning cars which are attached at fixed pivot points on a rotating platform. As they move along the platform, the cars randomly spin in different directions and speeds.
About the Scrambler
A crowd favorite, the Scrambler sends 12 cars, each seating up to three passengers, in a chaotic spinning motion.

Similar to a carousel, the mini-swings provides its riders with a thrilling swinging ride with no pushing required. As the ride spins, the swings move back-and-forth and side-to-side.
