The Italian ride manufacturer Technical <strong>Park</strong> has<br />
a surprise to offer the industry, namely the novelty<br />
attraction “Wild Spark”.<br />
With its bouncing gondolas the attraction is currently<br />
very much the trend. According to the wish of<br />
several customers, the manufacturer has equipped<br />
the “Wild Spark” with fixed gondolas, to provide a<br />
family-friendly ride experience. The gondolas, accommodating<br />
three passengers each, are mounted<br />
on 14 arms. This results in a capacity of 42 passengers<br />
per ride. The seats are equipped with<br />
pneumatic shoulder restraints, already used and<br />
well proven on the “Loop Fighter” attractions from<br />
Technical <strong>Park</strong>. An original compressed air system<br />
built in Spain – in other words, where the best<br />
“Saltamontes” come from – provides for the bouncing<br />
movement. The attraction, with a diameter of 16<br />
metres, requires only one transport vehicle. The first<br />
example is to go into operation in autumn. According<br />
to Technical-<strong>Park</strong> Manager Marco Grigolo, the<br />
ride will be approved by TÜV Süd before it is<br />
delivered to a customer in Germany.<br />
