Your favorite HUSS ride

[simon8899]

Which ride by HUSS do you like most?

[Rai Fox]

A classic Enterprise is still one of my favorite rides anywhere. I've almost certainly been on the one at Lake Compounce more times than any other ride, coaster or flat ride, out there, and I just can't ever get enough of it.

[thrillrider]

I picked troika, but I like the condor even more. Did not see it on the list.

[BaMiTsPaT]

Giant frisbees (or regular frisbees for that matter) are awesome rides, and I'd like to see them at more parks.

[TPDave]

I went for the breakdance, you can't beat a classic!

 

Some of their rides (topple tower comes to mind) promise a lot but really don't deliver, the breakdance endures.

[3Mutts]

I think their frisbees are the best.

[RCF]

I have always wanted to see them build one of their Deliriums. It looks like it would be quite a fun family ride on such a big scale.

I'm gonna have to go with the Suspended Top Spin. I find these a lot less uncomfortable than the regular versions, and in my opinion Knott's Riptide runs a much better program than any normal Top Spin I've been on. Frisbees (the regular ones...not a fan of the Giant version) are second place, and the rare UFO (not listed) comes in third. I find most of HUSS's other attractions that I've experienced (Break Dance, Pirate, Troika, Enterprise, Jump2, Swing Around, possibly Rainbow, and possibly one or two others) underwhelming, and I generally find similar rides built by other manufacturers to be better.

[TPDave]

^ The only suspended top spin I really rate is Talocan at Phantasialand, and that's only really for the theming (and the fire!!) rather than the ride experience itself.

Break dancer/Rodeo... Especially indoor ones set to lights and techno surf tunes!

[ECZenith]

Giant frisbee! Kings Island's Delirium is one of my favorite rides in the park . I bet Maxair is even nicer, seeing how close it is to Lake Erie. I have to give runner up to Nightwing (SFNE) a Huss Fly Away, RIP.

[crazywolf88]

The frisbee at Adventureland in farming dale was moved from a German fair... And by the way it runs I doubt it was reprogrammed. This thing is one of the most insane flat rides I've been on to the point that I couldn't take more than three rides!

[Double0Kevin]

Gotta go with Giant Frisbee. Loved MaXair. I was bummed Delerium was closed when I visited KI back on '05, but still have MaXair under the belt none the less.

[rollin_n_coastin]

So many classics! Hard to chose just one favourite, being a total flat ride fan

 

My favourites aren't listed so I'll go for "other".

 

I'd vote for the Jump2 as my current favourite but also close up are:

Swing Around

Jump

Skylab

Ranger

UFO (my favourite prior to the Jump2)

Giant Frisbee !I<3Delirium. Even with its excessive down-time its awesome!. Hate trokias because there way to spinny.(sorry trokia lovers)

[Ed Farmer]

Only thing better than a Giant Frisbee to me is a second-gen Intamin Drop Tower.

[caffeine_demon]

flic flac for me please!!

[Sammy*]

Giant Frisbee is my second favorite flat ride, unless you count test track to be a flat ride then its third, both under the drop towers.

[JonnyRCT3]

Giant Frisbees!

 

maXair is Cp's 2nd best flat behind the airtime machine SkyHawk .

 

Black Widow is even better (not a huss) because it spins you right next to a valley. I was looking about 300' down when 1/2 upside down .

[larrygator]

Of the choices listed I probably would have picked the Breakdance if I had not ridden a TakeOff.

Just an incredible and intense flat ride.

[OISU8P]

^ Wow, I have never seen one of those before, that is pretty cool looking.

 

Does Huss still sell rides? I have not seen a part install one in years. I thought I heard at one point they just do parts for existing rides now. I am not sure if that is true since their website still has a catalog. I wonder what the downfall of Huss was. At one point they where one of the hottest flat ride providers and then went cold all of a sudden. Seems like Zamperlas is the new Huss for flats.

[Jew]

^Cost and weight. Other companies make the same rides for less, and their big traveling rides are too heavy for the U.S. (The only traveling Top Spin in the U.S. has to go by train).

[wildcatroc]

My favorite ride was always the Tri-Star. I was sad the day it was removed from Riverside and they seem to have gone into a near extinct state over the years. A real bummer!

[Blue Fire Guy]

I picked the Breakdance, any ride where the intensity depends on the weight balance ranks highly in my book. Even if I don't get a really wild, whip-me-around ride, Breakdances are still a lot of fun. One day, I shall ride the Kinzler Breakdance (or should I say, Epileptic Seizuredance) that travels German fairs. This offride video here shows its long cycle, special effects, and the "Never in America" speed setting later on.

 

[Angry_Gumball]

^That looks insanely fun!

 

Closest we have around here (which is a very good ride and what I was referring to as my favorite Huss ride) is this thing:

Everyone who's gone to Santa Cruz I'm sure has ridden it. I displaced the weight so much that towards the end of the cycle I got myself into this endless spin so when the ride had stopped, I was able to keep it spinning at a fast rate for several second after the ride cycle (until the brakes kicked in). Probably my most insane moment on these rides!

 

Though not as intense but still proven to be a fun ride, I'm happy that my home park CGA also has an identical ride sans the cool lighting effects...if only it ran a tad faster (it does have variable speed which can make interesting rides if you displace your weight just right).
