I think I read somewhere that this ride was made in Adventure Islands own workshops, the big building next to this ride and under the Barnstormer. This would explain why I've never seen a ride like this anywhere before. With the popularity of the rocking tug rides at the moment, this is a ride with potential, as it aims at the same market.

It set up like a small Ferris wheel, where you sit facing outwards. The seats are set up so they can rock left and right slightly. The wheel then spins round at a reasonable speed. This causes the seats to rock at the top and bottom of the wheel, and creates a noticeable, although pretty tame bit of force when the gondola starts descending from the top of the wheel.

As a thrill ride for young kids it does a nice job, but the tame and repetitive nature of the ride experience on offer means it only a novel distraction for anyone older.
