Yes that is made by HUSS. It is a Frisbee XL. They are starting to build more of them. Cedar Point has one called MaXair, which is a lot of fun.

A furious storm once roared `cross the sea, catching ships in its path, helpless to flee. Instead of a certain and watery doom, the winds swept them here to Typhoon Lagoon!

It's not a Frisbee XL, it is a Giant Frisbee.

Frisbee XL is a suspended frisbee with 40 seats and is 36 meters tall in full swing, it swings to 130 degrees and it's top speed is 94kph, also no Frisbee's XL's have been built to date. Giant Frisbee is 50 meters tall, holds 50 people, swings to 120 degrees and it's top speed is 120kph.


CP spent 10 mil when they installed MaxAir, so figure 4-8mil for the ride itself would seem reasonable (rest of that $$ was probably other stuff they did).

I personally perfer the KMG XXL, it's 5 meters taller, it's faster and it's portable :)

^But I thought the KMG XXL only swings to about 85 or 90 degrees?

XXL swings to 120-125 degrees depending on the operator (by the book it swings to 120 degrees)

I guess, it was an optical illusion :lol:

But 120 degrees, that tall, must have amazing airtime.
