The Skycoaster is a sport/amusement attraction
designed by Sky Fun 1, Inc. of Boulder, Colorado. The attraction
offers all the thrills and excitement of skydiving and hang
gliding. The attraction operates by putting the participant
in a full body harness (usually referred to as a flight suit),
that supports the flyer (from one to three at a time), in
a prone position. The harness is then connected to the flight
support cables. From a static point approximately 6 feet above
the ground, the flyers are then pulled aloft by a launch cable
to nearly the top of the launch tower. At this point the flyers
are approximately 143 feet above the ground with the flight
cables taut and the flight is ready to begin. Upon being given
the signal, the flyers pull the rip cord, releasing them from
the launch cable and rapidly swing towards the ground at speeds
reaching up to 80 mph. The overall feeling is similar to that
of swooping along the ground in a hang glider, or that of
skydiving.
This attraction is not included with Lagoon Ride and Season Passports.
Price for Skycoaser - $15.00* per person

Top Eliminator combines competition and
skill with a thrilling race experience. This attraction is
modeled after a drag race and utilizes real dragsters and
a special track system. Top Eliminator is designed to give
regular drivers a taste of drag racing. Anywhere from one
to four cars can race each other side by side. Each lane is
individually timed and the results are displayed after each
run for the driver and spectators to see. Drivers have control
of their dragsters' gas and brake pedals from starting position
to the braking area. The key to winning the Top Eliminator
dragster race is in the quick reaction time at the starting
line and shifting at the right time. At the finish line cars
are stopped with a specially engineered roller coaster braking
system.
This attraction is not included with Lagoon Ride and Season Passports.
Price for Top Eliminator - $12.00* per person

In the amusement industry, the "Catapult" is
frequently called the world's hottest new attraction providing
rider a unique, high adrenaline, vertical experience. The
Catapult, manufactured in Europe, utilizes a specially designed
spring machine that operates by applying over forty (40) tons
of force to extension springs. This incredible propulsion
energy is then transferred to the rider capsule prior to launch.
When launched, riders will experience forces similar to astronauts
as they are rocketed from ground level to well over 200 feet
in the air. At the highest point, riders will become weightless
momentarily as they freely rotate forward and backward before
they are pulled back to Earth. After several oscillations
up and down, the capsule is lowered to the boarding area to
unload and load another group of riders.
The Catapult is designed and manufactured to the highest amusement industry
safety standards including the A.S.T.M. standards of the U.S. and the
T.U.V. standards of Europe. The two riders are secured in the capsule
seats by full harness restraints with multiples, redundant locking mechanisms
for safety and comfort. Four independent steel cables connect the rider
capsule to the spring machine and all connections consist of two independent
systems to maximize rider safety. All ride systems are monitored and
controlled by an integrated computer to provide every rider, whether
light or heavy, the same amount of thrust.
This attraction is not included with Lagoon Ride and Season Passports.
Price for Catapult - $20.00* per person
