Maelstrom
Maelstrom is a stomach-churning, head-turning gyro swing that will have thrillseekers on the edge of their seats. You’ll face outwards as you’re raised into the sky, gaining massive height with every arc before you plunge towards the ground. But that’s not all – you’ll also rotate a full 360 degrees as you fly, sending you into the heart of the maelstrom. Adrenalin junkies won’t want to miss this one – in a unique twist, riders’ legs swing freely, giving the sensation of freedom and flight in this jaw-dropping thrill ride. This white-knuckle experience is like nothing you’ve experienced before. If you think you can handle the power of the storm, test your limits on Maelstrom\
Storm Force 10
You’re out at sea and a huge storm is building on the horizon, threatening to send your boat on a wild, white-knuckle ride like no other. Your mission? To survive Stormforce 10, a heart-stopping, three-drop water ride with a twist that will thrill any adrenalin junkie. The journey begins with a drop that sends you into the heart of Stormforce 10. Hold on as you weather the storm and face another plunge, which you experience backwards, before finally reaching the last peak, ready for the third stomach-churning drop. One thing’s for sure: Stormforce 10 might be the wildest ride of your life.
