FLYING RIDES – Larson International

Description

Larson International, Inc. also has the classic Flying Rides including the Jumping Jumbos, Bumble Bee Bop and Star Command. Each themed ride is designed to attract children but also accommodate adult riders. Guests load in one of the eight vehicles and as the ride begins rotating each vehicle may be propelled up or down with the push or pull of a control bar. This gives the guest the option to ride up in the air or down closer to the ground or both.
With both park and portable models of each ride available, these classic fun rides will please even in the smallest of spaces.

Bumble Bee Bop moves in a circular motion with the colorful friendly bees flying up and down. Eight elaborately detailed bees buzz around a realistic looking hive. Each bee will comfortably seat one adult and one child or three children. Each bee is equipped with a control bar that allows passengers to raise and lower the vehicle as desired. With a diameter of 34 feet, this ride can fit many locations, but still has a high capacity.

Jumping Jumbos feature eight brightly colored elephants rotating in a circle at 7 RPM around the center base, that features a mouse. Riders can move the elephant from its starting position, eight inches above the ground, to a maximum ascension height of eight feet. Each of the eight elephants has a bench seat that holds three children or one adult and one child. A small perimeter makes it a very versatile ride in terms of where it can be placed. It will fit a variety of locations, and with eight vehicles, it also offers a high hourly passenger capacity.

Star Command fits well with the high tech, fast paced world of today. The ride features eight bright red, silver and lime painted spaceships, which rotate at seven RPM's around a moon shaped base. Passengers can control their flight using a control bar, which moves their spaceship from eight inches above the ground to a maximum height of eight feet. The bench seats in each space ship are designed to accommodate three children or one adult and one child.
