To clarify: The ride model is just called the "Speed," but certain installations are named "Speed XXL." When I researched this, the page made it sound like "Speed XXL" was the name of the model and not just that specific installation. The footage shown in this video is not of the specific ride named "Speed XXL", but the model is exactly the same. Also, the Inversion 24's gondolas are capable of unlocking and rotating freely. However, regulations prevent them from unlocking at the top height. So most operators leave them locked throughout the ride cycle. Every clip of the ride I've seen shows them staying locked during the whole ride. But apparently, some operators will unlock them. Its just rare

[@A7x_Forever]

Yeah. And unfortunately, there is no point. When the Infinity was still in its early years, operators stated in an interview that the gondolas will eventually flip when released, like you mostly get on Inversion 12s. However, the gondolas are way too heavy and since German regulation prohibits them from unlocking them at full power (since you could hypothetically flip upside down at the loading station and experience an honestly red-out inducing -5G, the operators don't even bother anymore. It is what it is.

Hey Theme Park Crazy, I hate to correct your great work, but Serengeti Flyer at Busch Gardens Tampa stole the record of tallest and fastest Screamin' Swing from Tidal Surge. Keep the wonderful videos coming!

[@ThemeParkCrazy]

@@thenerdyenthusiast Technically they tied the record, so now two SeaWorld parks have it : ).

[@lightningboat]

@@A7x_Forever Tundra Twister does this, albiet rarely. One time when I rode it, the gondola didn't flip at the bottom and I blacked out completely (I was on the wing seat)

[@ninjaemilee]

The zipper has always been my favorite ride at my local fair. I love how unpredictable it is and the amount of force pulled on you at each turnaround is insane. It's a bit harder to ride now as an adult but it doesn't stop me.

[@Crafting_Through_Life]

Haha glad I wasn’t the only one to mention the zipper. That is one ride I have never gotten back on. As a kid my brother whom was 5yrs older than me got us spinning so fast it flung me out of the seat and buckles and I tumbled around the cage until the ride stopped. I was covered in bruises for weeks and broke my pinky finger.

[@skrounst]

Hell yeah! If Im driving along and see a carnival and it has a Zipper, I pull over and hop on (okay I've done that two or three times, but I always at least think about doing it every carnival I see lol). I challenge you next time you're driving along and see a carnival, stop what you are doing and hop on. It can only make your day better, even if you're a few minutes late to what you were on your way to do.

[@LawnBunny777]

@@Crafting_Through_Life OMG that's crazy! I went on that once and never again!

[@FXwashere]

For a long time, I was unable to go on thrill rides because there was a ride named the "Booster" at my local fair. It was the first time that I went on a ride that made you go upside down. Unfortunately, I got stuck on the ride upside down for over 20 minutes, and I panicked. For years, I refused to go on any ride, but thankfully, now I'm okay.

The Zipper was my mother’s favourite carnival ride. As a kid I would have wanted the new restraints on the Zipper than the ‘classic’ mode. For my first time on this ride, I felt very uncomfortable with holding onto nothing BUT the bar. After I got off it I told my mom how rough and intense it felt. She said that it’s an older ride that got a more rough over time. Little did I know that the Zipper, out of 30 other thrill rides is considered to be the MOST INTENSE!

[@LawnBunny777]

Yes, I was surprised to see that as well! I thought I was just a wuss by doing the zipper once and then vowing Never Again!!

[@angelmalarkey7946]

Me too, but I 3 times and it was terrifying.

[@skippythealien9627]

i freaking love the Zipper. but the problem is they don't allow single riders :(

[@MEGalomaniac6829]

I remember crying my eyes out because I was too small to ride the Zipper at my local carnival. The following year I was tall enough...and instantly regretted it. My dad had the operator spin it as soon as we got on it and little Meg almost lost her funnel cake! Lol. Another great memory I have with my daddy. :)

[@MechaTheSpider]

Big agree on that Zipper, when you hit the corner while it's spinning, it basically whip-cracks your whole body and force spins your goldola, absolutely intense. Love it.

[@Coolharry64]

I can't tell you how excited I was to hear you call the spaceship ride Gravitron!!! So many people I have encountered don't remember the original name. When I was younger, Gravitron floors dropped out!! Most people don't remember that detail either.

[@ChibiProwl]

I do! Before the Clay County Fair here in Green Cove Springs, Florida which takes place every late March, early April renamed their Gravitron, Starship 2000, its floor dropped out.

[@GiftsbyChosen]

Was my favorite as a child, and still til this day!!

[@TheMasterZero19]

I just LOVE the Gravitron. It's not particularly intense imo but the fabulous interior, the gravity pushing you down to the bed as you feebly play with resisting physics, and the cozy nature of the spinning makes it fun at all levels any day or night.

[@firstflowerinspace]

Personally I find the Roundup super chill. No fear just vibes.

I love the Zipper! The best is when everything lines up just right and your gondola hurtles toward the ground face first only to whip around at the last second. So much fun!

[@gpcoasters7824]

Scat2 at Beech Bend in Kentucky is by far the most intense flat ride we've encountered. The crushing positive g's make it feel as if there's a rhinoceros sitting on your chest for 3 minutes straight! The Haunted Mine Drop at Glenwood Caverns is a close second, but there was a tragic accident on it just 2 weeks after we last rode it, and its future is still uncertain as far as we've heard.

[@bigpboy1012]

The ride has reopened as Crystal Tower with a new theme, fully enclosed gondola, and car-style seat belts that riders are not allowed to buckle themselves.

[@SunshineStateCoasters]

The Zipper is indeed intense the main thing that sucks is when your not moving and just rocking back and forth as another cage is being loaded/unloaded. I did it one time at the Jacksonville, Florida Fair, knocked it off my bucket list but never again! That feeling in your stomach when your rocking back and forth is not worth it in my opinion.

[@Strob_GD]

Hey the not moving part is fun xd you can do flips and stuff "i was on the unharnessed one!"

[@skunkman9815]

Wow great video man

[@kermitlovers1039]

Great video peter!

[@Galistia]

I rode a Speed XXL model once and never again. My ride in particular got the short end of the stick, and the weight distribution was probably the worst it could be. Every time we came around back down to Earth, my seat rotated facing the ground, and continuing to face the ground, including through the transition of going back up. So, I was getting pushed into my harness pretty hard and clinching my legs into the seat to keep me from sliding forward. Every single time lol.

[@Rengoku500]

I would imagine how bad that would be I went on a ride with 5 teens on one me and 2 other kids on the other. We where upside down the whole time.

Thank you for posting the I miss a lot of the flat rides as it seems like most of the amusement parks just have roller coasters now and we can find these rides at carnivals and fairs. I've been on majority of the ones mentioned in the video flat right as I love them.

[@thatrandomkid13]

The sky roller version at canada's wonderland is my absolute favorite ride. I get motion sick easily but for some reason it leads into the top speed so smoothly it feels amazing

[@sl0pster]

The Remix is quite fun, went on it 3 times with my step-sister. I went on something similar to the Gyro Swing/Giga Discovery at Oaks Park in Oregon, and it was very fun. I did both the 180 and 360. I go on the Gravitron almost every year at the fair, it is a favorite of one of my ex-friends. This year at the fair, I went on the Rotor [called the Rave at my fair] 3 times and it was super fun. I went onto something very similar to the Zipper as well, but I don't remember much of it and my step-sister didn't allow me to flip the cart.

[@liladjgal1204]

Hi TPC, loving the content as always.... I was wondering if you could do a video for thrilling rides built before 1950s? I'm really curious about how intense they were able to make rides back in the day (I know that video will likely be challenging to do).

[@SuperballsSupervidsOnYT]

Wow, the Rotpr. What a pick. The small town of Amherstburg Ontario had a small island park called Boblo Island that closed permanently after the 1993 season. Nothing special when it came to theme parks in general but one of the Boats that used to go there from Detroit was used in I think the third transformers movie, one of the rollercoasters there was used for the love shots in final destination 3, and their falling star ride is operating at Michigan's adventure (I think). There was a Rotor model amd it was my introduction to "big kid rides". It was such a memorable park and a great place for local families to bring their kids, of course it was often derided by people who favored nearby Cedar Point. My daughter's introduction to big kid rides was just th8s summer and it was the gravitron.

[@cynicalsix]

the silly disclaimer at the beginning is funny, i do find myself feeling sick watching some ride povs XD i still love them though!

I could live on the Remix, I love it, you love it, WE ALL LOVE IT

[@Fox_on_a_Rollercoaster]

My experiences: • The Remix is just insane. My feet start tingeling because the blood rushed down there. Very very fast ride. • The Star Shapes weren't all that intense. I rode the one at Skyline Park and the traveling one "High Energy" in germany. They are nice and comfy and not really that fast, but pleasent! The new brakes in the gondolas are just a dealbreaker for me. Now they are reeeeaaaally slow. Look at "Air" from the UK with the inner seats missing, almost no swinging occurs. • The Rocket was nice, but repetetive. Rode it on the Oktoberfest. A more thrilling version of a Starflyer pretty much, but the flipping is at a more graceful pace for more hangtime. I rode it while it was raining like crazy, but still very fun. • Yeah the KMG speeds are awesome. I prefer the Booster Maxx models by Fabbri (why listed below). • The Top Scan has to be my fav. The laterals in the outer seat are unmatched. My face is glued to the restraint. This is just crazy. the "Skater" on german fairs cranks it up to the max everytime. • Maybe I'm just used to the Top Spins because I've ridden them a ton, but I don't find them all that intense anymore. We have 2 traveling in germany and one suspended one at Phantasialand. Awesome, but the traveling ones have very uncomfortable restrains. Also I prefered the Top Spin 2 models. They are smaller, but the flipping is crazy fast. Best: KMG Discovery 1.0. • The Capriolo 10P is a mixed bag. I actually prefer the older models without the extra spin. It always feels like you crash head first down which is more terrifying to me personally. But I have to say: These were the most intense negative g's I've ever experienced. My head wanted to pop after 3 rides in a row. This is like the Top Scan no joke. You really should be in a good condition when riding these. • The Inversion 24 is fun, but goes only upside down once. ONCE. It just takes so long and needs so much power to get up there. The positives are good, though. • I have to disagree with the HUSS Booster: It does not feel like a Mondial shake, not at all. A shake really feels like a breakdance thanks to it's aditional axis of rotation and it is a LOT tamer than the Booster. The laterals are insane. One moment you're upright, the other moment you get flug upside down instantly. The sideways swinging also can give some awesome airtime when everything is right. • The Rotor is advertised as a family ride in germany on the Oktoberfest. The laughing from people who never tried it before (mostly tourists) is always a joy to watch. - Rides which could be on the list for next time: • Soriani & Moser Top Star Tour. I rode Predator in germany. Not only does it look impressive, the negative g's when it flips back to normal are shockingly strong. I didn't expect that. • Technical Park Pegasus models. Great speed, great laterals and pretty much the same amount of flipping as with a top scan. The op can lock the gondolas at the top so you blast though the station upside down for some wicked negative g's. My fav. with the Top Scan. • Mondial Heartbreaker. Not the most intense, but lots of flipping on a very small footprint. Really really fun! • Huss Take Off. The ones on germany still go full speed. Heavy positive g's like a never ending pretzel loop. • Fabbri Contact. Really heavy positive g's and laterals. Really odd looking, but man what an odd but intense experience. • Fabbri Heavy Rotation. Also really insane positive's in your back and very fast spinning. Similar forces to the Take Off. • Fabbri Booster Maxx 55/16. Really really fast and crushing positives. I case you the reader didn't notice: I love flat rides and I rode them pretty much all my life. If you made it to the end here: respect mate.

Before I rode Rebuliço, the newest Zamperla's Air Race in Beto Carrero World, Huss' Top Spin was my favorite flat ride. Even though the only one I rode, Hopi Hari's Ekatomb, don't operates at full cycle, with three spins at most, I still found out way too thrilling. Unfortunately, it's the only one in Brazil as well. The other ride I rode on this list was Top Scan. When I was visiting Knott's Berry Farm, my mom wanted to ride Sol Spin. I asked her if she was sure of that, and she said "yeah, let's go". She though it was a gentle ride. At the first spin, she yelled really loud that I couldn't help laughing at her! I did not enjoy the ride per se, but her reaction worth it!!

At Six Flags Magic Mointain and many other parks, the "Rotor" was known as "Spin Out". The empty space where it once stood is still visible in the park if you are across from the Gold Rusher and about to trek up that hill. You can look to your right and it's near the empty unused gazebo thing that used to serve as the lower station for the defunct Dragon ride (it was a transport ride that would get you up that side of the hill; the upper station is now used for Ninja).

The Capriolo 10P is a tamed down version. The original model, Capriolo 8, is also able to do that upside down dive, but engage in a series of flips afterwards. It's just more whippy overall and is a much more intense experience

Totally agree, I've been on both if them and nothing beats the negative G's of "Eclipse" going upside down through the station at maximum speed. It's shockingly intense 😳

Wow by just looking at most of these rides it makes me feel like im on the ride ❤lol

Been on the zipper once as a teenager…. And that was enough for me!! It was more terrifying than the Doppel Looping. It was a staple of the Canadian National Exhibition in the 90’s. It was a simple double looping coaster but it only had a metal restraint bar… that was it. No seatbelts… just the bar.

@ThemeparkCrazy I would like to point out that the seats of the inversion 24 can flip, like its little sister. But Hoefnagels only does it when its not that crowded on the funfairs. I had several rides on it where they did flip, but when they flip, it doesnt make a full inversion with the main arm. Its then more like an XXL swing. But when its crowded on the fair, or when the ticket price is lower (on familien tag/family day) i have yet to expernience it where it does swing. Usually on these days, or when its crowded, it just goes 1 time upside down, and then it lands already.

my carnival is in town rn. I have always been to scared to try the zipper, but I might just give it a go.

My first time on a Top Scan was the only time I’ve been openly bawling on a ride. I was not expecting it to be as intense as it was.

Imagine someone riding all of these inane rides without getting dizzy.
