The 120° Pendulum ride offers a perfect balance of swinging motion, height, and speed with just the right amount of intensity. It’s a thrilling ride that provides the sensation of freefall and weightlessness while keeping riders secure in their seats. Whether you're a first-time rider or a seasoned thrill-seeker, the 120-degree pendulum is sure to provide a fun and exciting experience with plenty of thrills, but without the extreme elements of full 180-degree.
The ride consists of a long, swinging arm that is attached to a central base. At the end of the arm are seats where riders are secured.
The swinging motion combined with heights, G-forces, and the sensation of weightlessness makes this ride one of the more intense attractions in an amusement park.
Depending on the ride and the park, there may be multiple swings before slowing down and coming to a complete stop.
Riders are securely fastened with over-the-shoulder restraints or Safety belts, ensuring they stay in place during the extreme motion.
The Pendulum Ride is a common feature at many theme parks and amusement parks, especially in places that cater to thrill-seekers looking for extreme rides.
The ride is often highlighted with flashing lights and dramatic swings that make it a visually striking addition to any park, especially at night.
