Rider Safety Information. A tower ride with a chair lift-type seat where riders are propelled up or shot down at high speeds. Riders will experience the feeling of weightlessness and elevation change as they ascend and descend each ride tower. A shoulder harness with a between-the-legs safety belt secures each rider over the head and across the chest.
Due to the nature of the restraint, this ride may not accommodate guests of a larger size. On the third tower, known as a Space Shot, passengers shoot from the bottom to the top of the tower and then drop and bounce a couple of times before the ride mercifully ends.
When the rides do happen, passengers experience -1Gs of unsettling weightlessness on the Turbo Drop, while the Space Shot delivers up to 4Gs of crushing forces, according to Rehnborg. He adds that the attractions offer a unique rider perspective. As compared to roller coasters, on which passengers are in enclosed cars and proceed along a track, drop tower riders sit in stripped-down, outward-facing seats with their legs dangling and have unencumbered views.
The wham-bam experience is over in a brisk few seconds. While the tower rises feet into the sky, the actual length of the drop is feet. That tower is also feet tall, but its drop is a bit shorter at feet. The other major manufacturer building crazy-tall tower rides is Intamin. Its Gyro Drop model features a ring of outward-facing seats that gently spins as it slowly climbs to the top of the tower.
It then freefalls down to the ground until magnetic brakes kick in. Up in the air! Passengers get blasted up the foot tower, plummet about halfway down, and then slowly rise to the top again. After a few knee-knocking moments checking out the Dallas skyline in the distance, they free fall down feet to the bottom, followed by an airtime-filled bounce halfway back up.
