The Dance Party has been thrilling visitors to amusement parks and FECs for over a decade, but now the pendulum ride from the SBF/Visa Group has just got a little more intense


aunched this season at Silverwood Theme Park in Idaho, USA, SpinCycle is the first Maxi 360 version of the Dance Party to be delivered by the Italian manufacturer. Featuring 24 outward-facing seats on the end of a mighty 32m-long (104ft) arm, it takes passengers on a full 360° flight, in which they feel forces of up to 3.5G as not only the arm itself turns but the gondola rotates at 13rpm. Could you handle it?


worldwide. Whilst the Maxi360 is arguably one of the group’s more extreme attractions, a


large share of its output is in fact represented by family rides and children’s attractions. Pictured is the beautiiful two-tier carousel supplied recently to Vialand in Istanbul. The Turkish city is widely acknowledged as the meeting place of Europe and Asia, a fitting outlet for SBF/Visa’s products given its global footprint!

May, two more Maxi 360s have been shipped, and a further two are on order. In total over 90 Dance Partys have been built by SBF/Visa to date, in multiple different configurations. In fact, there are typically three to four rides under construction at the factory in any month! “We are very pleased with the ongoing success of the Dance Party,” confirms SBF/Visa sales manager Vittorio Frisson. “It’s a phenomenon that is quickly esyablishing itself in many amusement facilities.” The baby brother of the Maxi 360 is the 8-seater compact version – perfect for family entertainment centres – featuring either 120° swing or 360° rotation, while the midi version comes with your choice of 24, 32 or 40-seats, in heights of 19, 27 or 33metres. All are available with either swinging or looping formats, with either inward or outward facing seats. Party on folks!
