The design of the second generation Enterprise
German manufacturer Huss Park Attractions has re-launched its ‘Enterprise’ ride with a new and improved design.
It will now be available as ‘Enterprise 2G’, a second generation of the ride. Options include ‘Enterprise 2GH’, a hybrid design combining suspended seats and classic style gondolas, and ‘Enterprise 2GH-Plus’, the same ride but with a new tilt action.
The Enterprise was originally introduced in the 1970s and more than 75 rides have been sold worldwide – with almost all of these still in operation.
The ride features a lifting arm which pivots up to 90°. Its wheel disc is driven by a motor and rotates fast enough to allow the gondolas to swing out as it rotates. In the vertical position guests experience a permanent looping ride, at which point the gondolas reach a height of approximately 18m. An acceleration of up to 2.5g is experienced by riders.
On the 2GH-Plus version, the wheel disc can be moved from the upright vertical position into a horizontal position and/or vice versa, providing a totally new experience. Alternatively, the wheel disc can be maintained in a horizontal position while the lifting arm is raised to the upright position. If used in this position at medium or low rotational speed, the attraction can also be operated as a form of panoramic ride, according to Huss.
The maximum passenger capacity is 40, leading to theoretical hourly capacities of 1,200 guests.
The redesign follows a similar initiative with the company’s ‘Condor’ ride in 2013.
