There's something mythical about the Zipper. If the music isn't blaring, you can always make out that distinctive "howling" that the ride mechanisms make. It always sent a shiver down my spine as I got closer to the front of the line, waiting to ride it. Good times.

Wow, that Zipper had every cage filled up with riders. I've never seen every cage with riders on a Zipper before! That is awesome! Though, I wish more carnivals had Sky Divers and the Sky Diver got the same amount of riders the Zipper did. The Diver is more tame of a ride than the Zipper is, I should know, I've ridden quite a few Zippers in my time too. lol Zipper's definitely more wild than the Sky Diver is. The Sky Diver rides like a Huss Enterprise versus that of the Zipper.

The zipper is seriously, hands down the best carnival ride i ever have ridden.The thing about carnival rides is they all consist of circles and spinning, This ride actually gives you the rush and feeling of weightlessness. I say it resembles a roller coaster the best, One of my favorites, and not to jinks it I have never heard of a major accident involving the zipper so even better. I am knocking on wood right now and not the nasty kind either lol, Yall take care, peace out shy town for life, keep it real CHICAGO. And if anyone does know of a incident involving the zipper let me know.

I agree you also feel like your about to crash when your pod/seat/cart/whatever is at the bottom and the ride is almost upright but a tiny bit slanted.

lol ya ya thats just a great ride if i was a millionaire i would have one in my back yard and let everyone go on it none stop all the time for free and have mad zipper ride parties that would be like the coolest thing ever i would make my back yard awesome. I would also make a bad ass pool that was like 20 feet deep and build a rock mountain that you could do cool cliff jumps off of lol

I know one accident I don’t remember exactly where happens but one of the doors open when the ride was in movement but thanks God no one was injured. Anyway I ride the zipper twice in my entire life is awesome ride if I have the opportunity to ride the zipper again I will do no question about it.

10/12/14 Huntington Fall Festival.....myself and my friend Gary (I'm 42 and he's 52 mind you) just broke the record..... 8 consecutive, non-stop flips!!!! Lost all sense of direction, he was screaming couldn't see anymore and all said and done took about a half hour for my heart to slow down. We originally when getting off ride thought we had only hit 4 in a row.... No not the case....my brother, nieces and nephew watched and counted. Blew their mind and my own.

That's so cool. My mom and her friend broke a record when they were younger for most flips at 26 I think back in the 90's. It must be fun doing both.

I NEVER RODE THE ZIPPER IN MY HOLE TIRE LIFE

@jimkerr5426 8 жыл бұрын

I think the first time I took a ride on a Zipper when back in the summer of 1990-91, on the boardwalk in Wildwood, NJ. I was about ten then, and I wasn't sure at first..............hesitated, and then I worked up enough nerve to get on. However, as I made my way to get on, the operator said there needed to be two people per car: single riders were not allowed. Lucky for me, there was another single rider also in line, so we rode together. Great ride!!!!!!!!!!!!

Chance actually made three types...The portable 12-car unit in which the ride body and cars fit into a single truck trailer, and the slightly larger 16-car / 20 car units designed for permanent midway / theme park applications...

@DavidChrisCastillo-im1wg Жыл бұрын

I've never viewed a 16 or 20 car zipper, only the 12 car portable type. So, I reckon those 16 to 20 car types must have a greater "altitude" than 56'?

@Jhihmoac Жыл бұрын

@@DavidChrisCastillo-im1wg - IDK... I only saw an old photograph of a 16-car, 8 carriage _"Super Zipper"_ at Coney Island, taken back in the early 70s... I was told about a 20-car, 10 carriage unit somewhere at an amusement park in New England back in the day, although I never saw that one...There is one at Coney these days, but it's a more modern, standard 12-car, 6 carriage portable unit that they take down and stow somewhere during the winter... I'm not sure what became of the other one... I think there were only a few of the bigger ones made early in the ride's history, (1st gen - when the main boom turned faster), and then those were discontinued due to poor sales when Chance went to the slower 2nd Gen units by the mid 70s...

@DavidChrisCastillo-im1wg Жыл бұрын

@@Jhihmoac were those 2nd generation types the 1st to use that chain attached from the mid top drive shaft that turns the ride as opposed to the previous type that had the larger back circle of the zipper that was rim driven by 2 tires on lower left & right sides?

@Jhihmoac Жыл бұрын

@@DavidChrisCastillo-im1wg - I think so... The first ones had a speed of 11rpm at the rim-driven boom and 7 rpm at the rim and cable-turned (carriage) system...These speeds were found to be too fast, causing whiplash and injuries bumping around due to the excess centrifugal force! I think it was after that they did a speed reduction change on the carriage and switched to the main chain sprocket on the boom which effectively lowered the RPMs of both to their current speeds...
