 Cole
Amusements will be back again for the 2008 Denver Days Fall
Festival. At last years 2007 Denver Days Fall Festival, Cole Amusements Inc.
provided a wide variety of fantastic rides! We added more rides for our younger guests and plenty of awesome rides for the more adventurous
guests too. When the sun goes down the fun just kept on going as
the festival came alive with the beautiful lights and sights of
the festival's thrilling collection of amusement rides!
Here's a look
at the exciting rides that were at last years 2007
festival, check back soon for a look at the rides planned for
this year's 2008 festival....
The
Zipper
NEW
to Denver Days this year, the Zipper is the standard
measuring stick by which all other "scary"
rides are measured - if you can handle two and a half
minutes on the Zipper, you can handle any other ride on
the carnival midway!
The
Zipper has 12 cages - each just large enough for two
passengers side by side. - Not for the weak-hearted,
certainly not for the claustrophobic!.
Each cage
rotates freely on an off-centre axis, while the cages
move around the main boom at 4 rpm. While this is
happening, the whole boom rotates on its own axis. This
creates a completely chaotic, totally un-natural ride
pattern - flipping riders with maximum force, while
their knuckles are white - instinctively gripping onto
the rungs …for dear life! Definitely not something to
take your grandma on!
The
Zipper will leave you screaming - no ride even slightly
resembles it - it's truly unique. It's not exactly fun
for the whole family, but if you're a thrill seeker with
nerves of steel you're gonna love this ride!
Brave the
Zipper at this years 5th annual Denver Days Fall
Festival! |

The
Super Shot
Imagine
sitting in mid air with your feet dangling, then CLICK!
Now accelerating towards the earth you SCREAM! And then,
you gently slow as the car glides in to the magnetic
braking system, SMILES! That is the Super Shot drop
tower experience, it's Wild, it's Amazing, and Denver
Days Fall Festival was one of the very first to feature
it!
Up to
Twelve riders are securely fastened into the gondola
using seatbelts and over-the-shoulder restraints.Then
rising 90' in the air riders soon plummet back to the
ground! Unlike some drop towers, the SUPER SHOT gondola
is launched from the top of the tower downward using two
hydraulic cylinders to give riders the ultimate free
fall experience.
You won't
believe this 90 feet tall giant until you see it! It's a
ride we dare you to try! |

Just wouldn't seem like a

kiddie ride that's been a favorite for generations. The ride
provides memorable sights and sounds as the beautifully decorated 30
ft carousel carries 32 riders on a magical romp. The ride rotates
