What is the deal, did Intamin change their name to intaride? I saw it on Maverick's website...

Well, if you go to Intamin's website:

http://www.ridetrade.com/

 

I kind of think IntaRide is some convergence of Intamin and Ride Trade.

Yeah. Even at Intamins IAAPA booth it said "Intaride"

I googled IntaRide and some site said it is the US Intamin manufacturer.

Intamin isn't really just one company in Switzerland that builds everything under the Intamin name anymore, for several years it's actually been made up of several subdivisions. IntaRide is their US division that builds rides. It's been around for a while but up until now all the rides they built just carried the standard Intamin AG name.

Yeah, IntaRide, LLC. is Intamin/Ride Trade's North American ride broker/constructor. They handle everything in North America to make it easier in terms of manufacturing and transport.

I read recently that Intamin is an abbreviation of INTernational AMusement INstallations - which, if correct and true, I hadn't realised!
