Cloverdale Citrus Fair - Ride Descriptions 2012*
SPECTACULAR RIDES
Yo yo
Passengers take their seats and then slowly rise into the air and they’re
off on a variation of the swing, called the Yo Yo. As it turns the top
leans, giving riders the thrill of ‘flying’! A family ride for youngsters,
teens and adults.
Zipper
The Zipper has been one of the Midway’s most recognizable
attractions for years, providing thrills to riders from teens to adults.
There’s more spinning going on with the Zipper than an out of control top.
While the ‘cages’ holding two passengers each rise and descend on a tower
boom, each spins independently and the entire boom turns, too. Three times
the action, backed by spectacular lighting bringing them back for more.
MAJOR RIDES AND SHOWS
1001 Nachts (Nights) Different from 2011
Our European 1001 Nachts ride is a spectacular bright ride on the
midway and is a thrill to fairgoers. It is a platform ride that goes
completely up and over in a circular fashion as riders leave their stomach
behind. This colorful attraction replaces the older falling star ride which
we used to use on our midways.
Gravitron
The lights and excitement of the midway literally become a blur as
The Gravitron sweeps you off of your feet. Spinning at 24 RPM, The Gravitron
uses centrifugal force to
float the passengers off the floor, giving them the feeling of
weightlessness. All aboard this 45-person capacity Gravitron for one wild
ride.
The Carousel
For decades, audiences have been awed by the beautifully
handcrafted majesty of the carousel. To witness The Carousel is to see this
piece of Americana in all its glory. This 30 foot Americana Themed Carousel
features jumping horses, and 2 chariots. Parents and children create
memories while they enjoy the sights and sounds of this beautiful ride
together!
Cyclone
The Cyclone is a thrilling ride that is enjoyed by kids, teens and
families of all types. The Cyclone has 8 uniquely designed spherical
passenger vessels each with a capacity of 4 persons. Each vessel includes a
centrally located steering wheel which enables the passengers spin the cars
themselves. The Cyclone lifts 7 ½ feet into the air and tilts 20 degrees for
a terrific ride sensation
Voyager
Step into the future with the Voyager. Riders board what looks like
a spaceship and step into virtual reality. The Voyager has a movie for
riders to watch while it rocks them back and forth.
Tilt-A-Whirl
Round and round they go and where they stop, nobody knows! An old
favorite that has thrilled and excited patrons for generations, the
Tilt-A-Whirl is a swirling experience for teens and adults. Separate cars
rotate individually as the entire ride revolves up, down and around!
Mardi-Gras
Celebrate one of America’s brightest and boldest holidays without
having to travel far. The Mardi Gras is a self-contained celebration of the
famed New Orleans Holiday. Two stories of exciting mirror mazes, moving
escalators, music and lights combine for thrills, inside and out – day or
night!
Slide
The Cloverdale Citrus Fair has been a playground for kids of all
ages for years. And no playground would ever be complete without a slide!
Kids of any age enjoy the thrill of this giant slide as they sail down the
undulating path. Passengers climb a stairway, higher and higher to the top
of the slide and then laugh and squeal with delight as they sail to the
bottom.
FAMILY RIDES (Rides that adults and children may ride together)
Wacky Worm
The Wacky Worm coaster is designed for the whole family. This two level
family roller coaster is a great way for the entire family to enjoy the
carnival. This brightly painted worm, surrounded by flower cup lights, is a
charming addition to the Midway.
Hot Rods (different from 2011)
Get your little motor runnin’ on this high-octane kiddy ride. The Hot Rod is
an umbrella ride with mini classic cars to ride in which travel in a 360
degree rotation. This ride will bring out the little grease monkey in any
child!
Lolli Swing
Enjoy all of the fun of the sweet colors and savory sensation of a
lollipop without the calories and sugar! This brightly colored ride has 16
swings decorated with large swirl lollipops and lights. The centerpiece is a
large clown complete with a red nose and floppy shoes.
Jump Around
The jump around is a first of its kind, fully interactive family
ride that is sure to be a hit amongst kids of all ages. The jump around
combines dune buggy themed vehicles with a unique, patent pending
interactive bouncing motion. Up to fours children or one adult and two
children can be accommodated in each vehicle for a capacity of 600 rides per
hour
Shrek
Everyone’s favorite Ogre now has his own themed ride! Shrek the
