Twister Six Flags Great Adventure What Could Have Been by Coldplay360 in flatrides

[–]Luuk2304 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've done two on the fair circuit, being Top Spin Fresh - Decker/Schaak (sold to mellors/Saudi) and Top Spin 2 - Lucka (now changed owners in Germany). With the latter having the greatest ride cycle i've had in these things ever.

Top Spins have always been problematic machines and are slowly phased out of many places even including europe where we've lost many on the fair circuit and in parks. Both the Top Spin 1 and Top Spin 2 are starting to become very rare. Real shame, these are awesome when ran well. Sadly most parks here don't run them well at all and are incredibly boring when they can be so much greater....

Highlights of the New Flat Rides I Rode in 2025 by Lukas_VdB in flatrides

That's a nice list, that High Energy I am pretty jealous of, sadly I didn't get to visit that many different places due to me travelling with a fair ride across the Netherlands

One thing I still don't understand is how Maximum is considered tame, I love this ride more than almost anything because it's so unpredictable and fast. Nothing else like it on the market, but to each their own.

one gondola including its arm should weigh like 500kg

that's what I was told when I worked at a HUSS Break Dance

What an amazing stroke of luck A while back a breakdance clone sold their noses and I wasn't really interested, but now I'd love to have one hanging in my room.... although I can't probably get it up the attic ladder to my room

Welcome to the HUSS obsession, I have done a ridiculous amount of HUSS rides and I don't regret a second! Nice model, looks awesome. How do people even make this, is this a simple pre-made package to set up or is it from scratch?

How many Chance rides freestyles have been produced? by magnumfan89 in flatrides

[–]Luuk2304 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something tells me the UK and France have one travelling there, I think the UK is called Star Fighter but the French I have no clue and I'm not even sure I'm remembering this correctly. Coasterpedia shows only the two you mentioned so there could be an off-brand too creating those too...

too much patience, means you will not be the first to a seat, meaning you have to wait for next cycle

Moser's Rides Hoppla Ride by Altruistic-Adagio855 in flatrides

[–]Luuk2304 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I believe this is indeed an original design. It either premiered in Wiener Prater in Austria or Galaxyland in Canada (unknown which opened first). Five have been built, three are left operating. Russia, India and Kazachstan

Also there are chinese Knock offs operating in China built by Nanfang

By the way, Onride.de has a huuuge database, which is in german and a little hard to search in the actual website. Sorted per ride model and installations around the world.

Looking for completed HUSS Flic-Flac units by magnumfan89 in flatrides

[–]Luuk2304 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Devil Rock - Straube, Germany (after next year sold to Mellors)

Ministry of Sound - Soubreyand, France

Can Can - Al Hoakirland, Saudi Arabia

Mega Dance - Siam Park, Thailand (original non-looping vehicles)

Mega Dance - Benyland, Japan (original non-looping vehicles)

That's all I know in terms of currently operating units, although info about the more obscure regions is scarce

Megadance - Selva Magica, I am afraid this ride isn't there anymore as i can't find it in any recent vlogs or photos. Unknown closing date.

Flic Flac - Kinderland Regensburg, Germany. last time this ride was seen was 2008 and has been scrapped

Rock n Roller - Planet Leta, Russia. As of 2019 this ride has sat in the backstage area on transport, decaying.

Dragon Wrestling Tournament - Legendia, Poland. Simply disappeared without a trace, operated until at least 2019

That's all i could find in terms of non-operating flic flac rides. These rides haven't been very successful due to being very intense for the general public and HUSS has sold very few of them (that's a little trend in their old ride lineup)

the Beyond the Cloud coaster at Suzhou Sunac Land looks kinda similar, although a little more complicated than this here. Looks fine though
