Kite Flyer in operation.
These rides are a staple at smaller American parks, but are rarely seen elsewhere.
The Kite Flyer hang gliding ride.
A side view of Free Fall.
You can see how this ride was the inspiration for Intamins "Reverse Freefall Coaster"
Paratrouper was not operating during our visit.
Water Ace & Viking
Viking is a regular sized pirate ship.
Water Ace boats, with a mixture of swan and whale designs.
The unload area is separate to the load area, and the sleds drive themselves automatically between those two points.
There's literally no reason to not run at full speed through the course, with no possibility of crashing off the slide, as can happen on gravity powered toboggan runs.
There's also some rudimentary bunny hops.
Plenty of crossing over and under.
The station.
Two tracks operate in parallel. We'll let you guess how many they had open during our visit.
Power is supplied via a busbar that is under a perpsex cover. An arm at the back of the sled reaches over, around and under to make electrical contact.
An example of one of the sleds.
The entrance.
Bobkart is a unique ride where guests can control the speed of powered sleds around a stainless steel course.
There's three rolls total, plus an airtime hill.
Whist the cars can roll, they cannot turn, so a transfer system is used to allow the cars to complete the 2nd half of the course in reverse to get back to the station.
