Blizzard
Create varied driving sequences for varied fun
Blizzard is a new Thrill-Ride with a multi-dimensional and varied riding experience.
The center of the ride is the hydraulically liftable and lowerable tower. A drive unit is installed at the top end of the tower, consisting of a combination of two slewing rings and a pivoting device. By means of this drive unit, a rim with 5 arms can be moved into a swaying wave movement. On the end of each arm, a rotating circular gondola can swing out freely.
As the inclination and rotational speed of the arm composite increases, the gondolas swing outwards following the centrifugal force. Depending on the individual (manual and / or automatically controlled) pre-selectable directions of rotation and speeds, the blizzard can be used to create varied driving sequences.
