Carnival Rides

What's your favorite carnival rides? I love the Chance Zippers. They give you so many flips and the really old ones are much better than the newer ones.

Zippers are amazing! By far my favorite carnival ride. I also like the yellow frog hoppers that say mooseburger (sp) at the bottom, the USA, 1001 Nachts, and the original octopuses. I wish i knew manufactuers for the frog hopper and octopus, but i don't.

Yeah, Zippers are the sickest carnival rides on the planet there so fun, but I never feel very safe in them.

There is one at Timber Falls in Wisconsin Dells.

The one at Timber Falls is a different make and by a different company.

Seatbelt restraints and a comfy headrest.

What could be better than the Zipper?

One that comes close though is the Turbo Force. That thing is AMAZING and very forceful. It also had a nice view of Chicago's skyline. Actually, what am I saying, it was either just as good or even better than the Zipper. If I could ride it again I would be able to say it.

Both Turo Force ( http://www.versmold.de/assets/images/au ... _Force.jpg )
and after burner ( http://www.flatrides.com/Ride%20Index/K ... burner.jpg )

I totally forgot about that ride ^. I went on it sometime over the summer, it was AWESOME but the forces hurt the part where my legs bend. So it was not a very enjoyable ride.

Looks alot like a Chance Revolution 32

Usually the carnivals I go to have crap kiddie rides.

That reminds me of a free carnival I went to, there were only 5 boring rides and the lines were all long. I was pissed.

[ragingbullchick]

Probably Zipper. Feels really unsafe, but still a grat ride. 1001 Natchs is fun too, just not when the op is drunk.. long story.

[sfgam05]

I do remember turbo force at the Dells, i was small though and had little interest in rides, plus i think it cost like 15 bucks.

My faveorite rides so far are ring of fire and spin out. I would like to say zipper but i've never rode zipper but I would really like to.

[FParker185]

Hard to pick one, but my top tier would be....

KMG Tango, Chance Zipper, Mondial Top Scan, Mondial Shake, Mondial Super Nova, KMG Expierience, Fabbri Space Jam, Fabbri Booster, and believe it or not Top Fun SpinBall/Spinfly is pretty good also.

there is spinfly/ball if anyone is unfamiliar with it, also the rest can be found on that site.

Of course there are alot of other good rides, but those are just some of the best of the best, and I'm sure I'm missing plenty.

[DejaVuGurl1203]

^ Those rides look pretty cool. I've been on the Move It, its on the site, and it's really fun also.

http://wipeout.free.fr/step3/23.htm - That looks interesting. I wish they had these rides around here, lol.

[Galvan]

^ That ride looks like Quake from SFKK, but if im not mistake Quake was built by Vekoma.

[FRD714]

Yea, those are strange but cool.

[CoastsToCoasters]

My favorite carny rides are the inverters and something simular to the burner but as the floor spins, the arm rotates and goes upside down and around as your goin around-?

I dont know I rode it this summer in Downers Grove @ heritage fest.
