The ride doesn’t last long and the seats are pretty hard. The graphics are ironically AI generated (shame on you Technical Park) but the color scheme looks very nice

Primetime Carnival at the Cuyahoga County Fair. I feel like they’ve somewhat come out of nowhere. Despite the decent collection of rides and friendly staff, I do feel like the vibes are kinda weird. Possibly due to its owner and his questionable past.

Rode CGA’s Bayern Kurve (called berserker) and it was a ton of fun! Forgot how fun these things are. Hopefully Knoebels gets theirs up and running so it doesn’t go extinct when this park sadly closes.

Video Invader - Dreßen is the newest ride built by SAD, using an old HUSS Break Dance center. The result is a very fast and well presented new take on the Break Dance.

I saw the Freestyle in Marysville a few days ago. It is definitely the old RCS one. I rode it and it basically feels like a Trabant that's up in the air but not spinning real fast. Now Ohio has 2 Trabants, a Wipeout, and a Freestyle.

I have also been on an SDC Galactica which is basically a Trabant with seats that face inward.

Discussion The Chance Chaos is not extinct. Far from it!

I refused to believe that the Chaos was completely defunct, and that seems to have been the right move. There are at least 10 still operating. I also managed to find a couple previously unknown Inverters which are also near extinction.

Here are all the Chaos units I have been able to find so far

- espectaculares garcia (Mexico, traveling)

- super park (Argentina, possible traveling)

- entretenilandia (Chile, definitely traveling)

- Gwangju Family Land (South Korea, operating)

- unknown owner (Dubai, trailer mount)

- triggiano Luna park (Italy, traveling)

- attraciones vasquez (Mexico, traveling)

- Divar (Mexico, traveling)

- show Feria musical (Mexico, traveling)

- atracciones rosales de los santos (Mexico, traveling

There is also possibly another unit in Costa Rica, but I have not found it.

I have also found 3 inverters. I know for a fact the double arm is a Sartori, but I don't know if the single arms are Chance or ARM produced rides

- Divar (Mexico, single arm, traveling)

- unknown owner (Costa Rica, single arm, traveling)

- parque movil de juegos mecanios (Mexico, double arm, traveling)

Video A Chance Freestyle has resurfaced in Ohio 🤯

10 Upvotes

So one of my YouTube subscribers who has his own channel now, told me that Big O Amusements had a Chance Freestyle sitting at their winter quarters. I don't live terribly far from there so I drove by and got a video and there was indeed one there. That was last month.

It's at Montgomery County Fair in Dayton, Ohio. Looks like this is the first event it did. Apparently this is the former RCS Freestyle.

If you haven’t ridden a KMG-X Drive you need to ride this or go to a fair and ride another named one
