Giant canyon swing always gets me. Obvi it has the positives and floater like any s&s swing, but the acrophobia of feeling like youre about to be hurled off a cliff, combined with the amazing scenery makes it such a top notch installation for me.

    If you want a permanent attraction it’s either Twilight Zone Tower of Terror at WDW or Forbidden Journey at IoA.

    For simple ride there is nothing that beats a Zipper or nearly any old school Chance ride… Gravitron (with a good light/sound system) is a close second.

      Hmm that forbidden journey seems more like a dark ride. But yeah do you know if there’s any permanent zipper installs? I really don’t frequent fairs lol. I tried to get my buddies to rip the rock o plane at lagoon but they were not into that.

        The classification of dark ride is really subjective… Both TZ:ToT and FJ could go both ways but I think of them more as thrill rides.

        As for a permanent Zipper I had rumors of one at Jolly Roger in Maryland (30th street) that’s permanent but I can’t personally confirm that…
