You take your seat in Slingshot and buckle up. Then you hear the giant Spring Machine groaning with power as your seat tilts back. Your heart is pounding and your mind is racing….then BBOOOMMM….you are catapulted over 360 feet into the air, straight up reaching speeds of 0 – 100 mph in less than 2 seconds, then you experience weightlessness for a split second before you freefall back towards the ground. And wait…the steel cables and giant Spring Machine then grab you and launch you straight back up to do it all over again.
The Vomatron is best described as a 200-foot, giant propeller with seats on each end powered by six huge electric motors. A similar mechanism was used by NASA to train astronauts for space flight. The Vomatron rotates riders at speeds up to 70 mph as individual capsules spin putting 4Gs of force on the riders. And just when a rider thinks they’ve conquered the Vomatron, it then spins in reverse order with the same degree of intensity!
Prices: Slingshot $30.00 per person
