Revolutionary Thrills On the Way!
Ready for some new thrills?
Wait'll you see what's coming!
Seabreeze is proud to announce the addition of a major new ride for the Summer of 2010. The REVOLUTION 360° is the first of its kind in the area, and comes from manufacturer Antonio Zamperla SPA of Vicenza, Italy. It will be located on a site between the Whirlwind roller coaster and Arcade building, and will open in May.
The ride experience: Climb aboard a giant disk and onto a motorcycle-like pedestal seat. You'll face outward at the extreme edge of the platform with arms and legs free from restraint. Hang on tight, as the disk rotates 360 degrees in both directions. Feel like you're floating on air as the platform glides back & forth, rockin' n rollin' on a gigantic half-pipe track. Get ready for full circle fun, 5 stories high!
