After many years in the amusement business, we are pleased to find you reading and ­e njoying our new
corporate presentation and product brochure. As we continue to design new attractions for parks and
their guests’ enjoyment, we feel it is important to also renew the presentation to reflect this. In this
new edition you will find our latest developments and realized attractions.
Our strength in this terrific industry is our continuous new development and improvement in the creation of new attractions and with
latest underlying technology applied. Our dedicated, knowledgeable, experienced and highly qualified staffs, are the fundamentals of
our success.
Over the last 10 years, we have experienced an increased interest in new, innovative and more often unique custom designed ­attractions
and we are responding to this with great enjoyment. We have expanded our team to accommodate this growth. ­Keeping up and improving
our standards for Safety, Quality, Service and Innovation have been and still are our highest priority as these are the basis for success for
Vekoma Rides and for the entire Amusement and Theme park industry. We have implemented new design, engineering and manufacturing
processes and experienced the successful results of these investments.
We provide existing parks with the highest possible service they are used to, and assist newcomers in the rapidly expanding markets
with the best advice and designs suitable for their projects. The industry is progressively looking for the unique, ­exciting and high quality
designs and techniques and with our in-house disciplines we are able to respond to this demand.
We care about people; commitment, customer responsiveness and team work. As in the past, we hope to be able to continue to
‘Turn Your World Around’ in the future.
On behalf of our management and staff, we thank you for your continued support and trust in our company

Custom Design
Our experienced team will work with you to create an unique experience with a layout, adapted
to your site plan, your creative goals and any other specific wishes.
Uniqueness
As more parks look for uniqueness of designs and are often limited to specific locations in
their parks, Vekoma Rides has designed many custom designed layouts, specifically adapted
to either a small or long stretched area, or even against steep hill sides, interacting with
existing attractions and buildings, while saving trees and natural surroundings of the park.
This requires thorough and inventive thinking of our concept engineers, who typically visit the
parks to discuss the potential for the park’s site plan restrictions and opportunities.

entertain your guests and build up the excitement. Then the guests enter the coaster and the
train is pulled backward onto the top of the lift. After the train is released, the train makes
a fast drop, reaching a speed of 60 km/hour after which it runs into a horseshoe element,
pulling an exciting 3G. The train continues and dives into left and right ­swerving elements
onto the second tower where they will experience a really fun and unexpected double dip....

backward and forward gives double fun and the attraction offers excitement for children,

where riders see the shadow of the Yeti on the wall as he tears up more track. During this time,
a second track switch is activated. As the shadow moves away, the train rolls forward and dives
down at a speed of 80 km/h, out of the mountain and down the main 24 m drop. The train makes a
steeply banked turn and speeds up a hill disappearing in another cave in the mountain, in which
the roars of the Yeti are heard again. The train dives down low again and spirals around twice in
a loop outside before going back through a cave into the mountain a final time. There it meets the
Yeti, but escapes by dropping suddenly - all explorers are safely brought back to base.

Cutting edge ride
The Giant Inverted Boomerang is a cutting edge ride that has been designed to draw roller coaster
connoisseurs from afar. True to the nature of Vekoma’s Boomerang rides, it puts as much thrill
into your park as possible within a compact space. It is a cost-effective investment because it
combines three rides into one: a free-fall, a looping coaster and a forward-backward trip.
Despite its impressive height, and heavier gauge construction, the GIB is easy to install. An
ingenious feature is the patented catcher system that picks the train up on the fly as it climbs
up the second lift hill on the opposite tower. Vekoma Rides’ Giant Inverted Boomerang is an
excellent choice for die-hard roller coaster fans and will give a theme park exclusive major
