Calaway Park Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 (edited) Galaxyland has recently added a new flat ride to their repertoire, the Sonic Twister, which is a 12 seater 'sidewinder' from Moser Rides. Galaxyland is also set to have another attraction opened either later this year or next season, but information is scarce. That's the ride, and while it looks really childish, wait until you see the video on Moser's site! If my predictions are correct, the acceleration forces on this thing because of it's size, will give you CRAZY ejector air and positive G-Forces, it HAULS A**. http://www.moserrides.com/funnyrides/sidewinder%20mini/sidewinder-12/sidewinder12.htm http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4PuJSDWHmQ That's a super bad quality cell phone camera video, but you can see how freakin' fast it goes! This ride replaced the aging Moser Top Spin that was there before, which, for all intensive purposes, was pretty boring. I definitely wasn't a fan, and the lines were always empty, plus it was down for repairs constantly. So this is a great replacement IMO!

DBru Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 I rode one of these at Boomers! down in Fort Lauderdale this winter...it was absolutely insane. Probably some of the most outrageous fun I've ever had on a flat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCFreak Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 I rode that at IAAPA This last year and I agree for being such a little guy he sure packs an amazing punch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkStitch626 Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 (edited) I must admit it does look like a great ride.Now if KMG did this with the afterburner on the German programming. Moser has always made great rides and especially the spring tower!. This just adds to the awesome rides for indoor parks genre.

Calaway Park Posted March 21, 2010 Author Share Posted March 21, 2010 Nice! I'm glad it's awesome, It looks like it's insane! And as with every ride, it looks tiny in video and on the internet, but I'm sure it looks a heck of a lot larger in reality. Either way, I was kind of sad about MOA getting a new 'brain surge' ride and Galaxyland was getting left with nothing.... again, but I didn't realize Galaxyland was getting 2 new flats, even if they're replacing old ones, the old ones kind of sucked.

nln00b Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 That actually looks REALLY fun. I mean, it's small, but it's fast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themeparkologist Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 At first, I thought it was a Huss mini-frisbee. That shows how observant I am and how I'm always skip over the text, look at the pretty moving pictures, type of person. But this looks way more intense withe the high extremes of forces created in such a short time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
