The classics Midway

I am currently working with my rides, and setting up what I call the classics midway. It will include classic rides like the swings, scrambler, carousel etc etc. Here is a pic of a fleet of racked rides.

I also will be posting alot of new pics and videos so stay tuned.

New pages layout

I wanted to point out that, the picture tabs for the pages are gone. It took too long to load, making the blog very slow. Now you will see a tab on the right that says pages. click on it, and it will take you to a list of pages, including the new units page. Click the name of each page, and it will redirect you to said page. Also, the ride list page, and a few pieces pages have been updated. If you have problems comment and tell me. Enjoy.

The lavender, aqua and maroon base, of my own design. As are the cars.

I also put up a video of the swinger being lowered. Click the videos tab to see it.

It begins with a Z

I am working on a new ride. The first ride I am ever doing that has a color scheme based off my own design. Its a classic ride. Almost every midway has one.

The classic zipper was introduced to the carnival midway in 1968. Since this time over 200 have been built, and operate all over the world, making it one of the most mass produced modern day rides of all time. Its the standard to which all other thrill rides are measured. weighing in at 19 tons, the zipper is not out to impress its audience with any themes, its just pure mechanical chaos. And now Shenandoah shows is getting its own model of the classic midway staple. (thanks ride jocks YouTube channel for the info on the history of the zipper)
