dropzonefan Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 I was browsing youtube, and came across this ride... It seems like a Kamikazee mixed with a Mondual Capriolo, but I was unable to get any I go on google... Does anyone have any info about the ride? Here's a video showing it in action: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 It appears to be a Fabbri unit (based on the fences, gearbox positioning etc.) and the "booster" style seats the ride uses also appear to be Fabbri seats... So it appears the owner of this unit has modified it (or was possibly built as a one off / prototype in the factory) I've looked on the website and can't find anything for it. Will try asking around with some people though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingRCT3 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 I saw this ride last year in Barcares (Southern France). It was once a normal Double Ranger and has been modified with booster seats by Fabbri. A few caracteristics can be find here. Otherwise, if you want a mini booster with Mondial's kind of seating, here you go: This ride is build by TopFun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon8899 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 I would have liked it more as a Ranger type ride. Wide loops or hanging upside down don't bother me while this short spaced spinning makes me lightly dizzy. The rear gondola seems to be fixed - or broken....

Wonder how many one off rides Fabri made (ie. this, hard rock etc.). Also very interesting to se that another company's keys a legit version of this. Do you know what park/showman owns it, and what happened to the Fabri version in the vid I posted above (that vid was shot 3 years ago). After hunting around some more, I found an onride vide. It shows just how god darn intense, and, as Alvey would say, kick@$$, this ride is... From the onride perspective, the ride seems almost like it combines the best of a capriolo and (dive booming at the ground, and being able to unlock /lock the gondola), and a zipper/topspin (able to do multiple flips extremely quickly, as demonstrated in the vid below) Edited August 13, 2013 by robbalvey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingRCT3 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Do you know what park/showman owns it, and what happened to the Fabri version in the vid I posted above (that vid was shot 3 years ago). The owner is Mr Righeshi (as seen on the link I provided you, no more info of him online) and the ride is still standing at Luna Park of Barcarès each summer (until August 31st). EDIT: Early this year it was at the Luna Park Avignon (84), and in June at Pierrefeu Du Var (83). So if you want to ride it, you'll have to come in France.

dropzonefan Posted August 13, 2013 Author Share Posted August 13, 2013 ^thanks... As for the original ride I posted, I really wish they made more of them and it was a legit thing. It truly looks like a great ride, something I'd have to try at least once if I end up in Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canadianparkfan Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Sorry to bump thread, but WOW! That onride video looks crazy!.... In a good way. Reminds me of when I've gotten great cycles on the zipper. Definetly puts the larger boosters, and maybe even capriolos to shame. Anyone here been on the ride, or its larger fabri/Mondial counterparts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
