The Amusing Ads Archive - Huss 1996

Huss Rides has been around the amusement industry for a long time, and has created some of the most popular amusement rides in the world. One of them, which is featured in this ad, is the Top Spin.

Not only to Top Spins provide quite a wild ride, programmable from mild to near insane, they've also proven to be one of the most frequently themed flat rides around. This ad is a great example of that, but there are many more out there. And hey, there's even a really big on in a box! (Heh)

You could probably say that the Top Spin's prime has come and gone at this point, but with so many of them out there in the parks (and in fairs), I'm sure there are plenty of years left to get in your tumbling, flipping, and spinning action.

Huss King Kong Ride Video

Screamscape has posted a video on YouTube of the model of the new Huss King Kong ride.




This ride looks cool! Maybe there's not that much of a point to it but the animatronics and such sure look awesome.

The first of these rides will open at Bobbejaanland in 2008.

Huss King Kong Ride

Huss Rides revealed a new attraction they have ready to go on the market earlier this summer. Normally I wouldn't care, but it's this interesting King Kong themed ride.

24 passengers at a time will enter the ride vehicle, and then King Kong will pick it up and "shake" it. It will lift the vehicle up to the gorilla's head amid several special effects.

The ride is 40 ft. tall and handles 500 people an hour. Sadly, that capacity will restrict it from most large parks, but it'll be interesting to see if one turns up nonetheless.

The ride will be officially launched during this year's IAAPA trade show. It looks weird but sorta cool.
