Makes me want a Chance Yo-Yo in my backyard! You can also manipulate the swings to maximize the “in-out” motion coordinated with the “up-down” tilt to really get that Flying Scooter feel. Feels borderline dangerous but if it’s not I hope they never change it.
This is the only ride at Indiana Beach that made me scream in terror in a good way. Going backwards and feeling like you are going to fall out yet you don't and the view of it all, it is so exhilarating.
Canobie Coaster said: The cycle duration is solid, not too long, not too short. It almost seems like the operator will slow the ride down once the swings start getting a bit too wild. Imagine saying: pretty wild quite wild very wild a bit too wild Those three terms mean they are wild, but I think there are differences between them. What are? What do you think? Canobie Coaster would say: A) Pretty wild crosses beyond the threshold what should be the proper cycle. B) Quite wild crosses beyond the threshold what should be the proper cycle. C) Very wild crosses beyond the threshold what should be the proper cycle. D) A bit too wild crosses beyond the threshold what should be the proper cycle.
It's only cause of the right people such as yourself telling me not to miss it that I rode this ride on my second IB visit whereas I purposely skipped it on my fist. The reason was that I initially presumed it was just another yoyo or wave swinger which I find so boring. Ok, the Orlando star flyer terrified me. I didn't vocalise or shut my eyes, but I was sort of just frozen there till we started coming down. It did not help that it wasn't a very calm day either. OTOH, Water Swings did NOT terrify me or even scare me a little, but it really was fun. It kind of reminded me with the weird motion in the video (and we got heaps of it) of the Tampico Tumbler (RIP, loved that ride) but also nothing like it LOL. I can't get anywhere near a 10, as even Cornball express didn't get a 10 from me and I spent most of the day on that and Lost Coaster (about a 7, a 9 many years back without such a forceful trim, Cornball was an 8, Hoosier a 2) which I preferred riding to this. So I'm gonna go about a 7. Also, I am tall, so had to be very careful with the swing in front, and I do warn other tall riders about that, to watch their legs.

Michigan's Adventure has one of these Trapeze Swings by Chance Rides. If they could get this over the water and have a bridge to make everything closer to that darn pond, they could kill two birds with one stone here.
I went to Indiana Beach for the first time today. I thought at first this video was hyperbolic but I TOTALLY get it now. It truly does feel like you're about to get yanked and yeeted right into the lake when this thing hits its max speed.
I never thought much of the 'Yo Yo' version of swing rides; I always felt the traditional Waveswinger (with its rotating center) made for a more pleasing ride. Perhaps I need to rethink this notion.
@@CanobieCoaster oh absolutely and imagine walking into a fair here in Florida many many years ago and seeing that on the midway. It was owned by sky attractions who also owned a KMG Fun Factory and a Soriani and Moser Big Ben.
@@CanobieCoaster yeah I figured that maybe it was just because nobody was riding it, i was the only one on the flying scooters, it was my first one too
That ride would probably trick me into riding because it looks like a nice scenic ride at the waterfront, but I would certainly end up with white knuckles from grabbing everything that feels secure.
Water Swings were even more unhinged back in the Apex days. The motor would speed up and slow down during the ride, so it was a guarantee you’ll be colliding with other riders.

I still kick myself for not riding this during my one short visit to Indiana Beach 😮
It's easy to miss if you're unaware how wild it is.
@@CanobieCoaster I saw it and had a feeling, but ignored the little tig to go ride it 🤷♀️
@@CanobieCoasterdo a review and top rides/reviews at skyline park in Germany
Unfortunately it was closed when I visited last year. But hopefully I can get another visit in soon
This was a sleeper hit for me, I’d honestly argue that this is the best ride at Indiana Beach. It’s that crazy
I prefer a few coasters, but it's one of their best rides.
I agree
Such a surprising ride.
This ride looks awesome!
It is!

I've inadvertently done that while leaning backwards to avoid another swing.
I'm pretty sure they were closed most of last year. Wonder what they replaced/ fixed
Glad it was open for me this year! Seemed similar to past years.
good
Great

It honestly may be the scariest ride there.

Even shorter guests have to watch their legs on this. The swings have a mind of their own.
Which give more adrenaline this or snapping on flying scooters
Flying scooters

Usually I prefer wave swingers, but this one is unhinged.
I usually skip this type of ride, but not these.
This one is special.
The amount of times I’ve kicked my friends on this ride 😂😂
Even if you try not to, you often hit the swing in front of you.
I live down the street, and have always hated this ride the most. Until they made the triple loop coaster.
I like both those myself.
I think the world’s best is the KMG Sky Swing. Not to tall but a beast at 200ft for a traveling swing.
Sounds awesome!
@@CanobieCoaster oh absolutely and imagine walking into a fair here in Florida many many years ago and seeing that on the midway. It was owned by sky attractions who also owned a KMG Fun Factory and a Soriani and Moser Big Ben.
Man, I wish I rode this when I went. I went a few days ago and didn’t ride it. I don’t know if it was operating though, as I didn’t ever see it spin.
I was the only rider a few times I was on it.
@@CanobieCoaster yeah I figured that maybe it was just because nobody was riding it, i was the only one on the flying scooters, it was my first one too
I wish i got a full cycle when I rode, the operator accidentally ended the cycle right before it sped up to max speed
Oh no! Couldn't ride again?
@@CanobieCoaster The operator offered but i was really short on time so i ended up leaving
That ride would probably trick me into riding because it looks like a nice scenic ride at the waterfront, but I would certainly end up with white knuckles from grabbing everything that feels secure.
It's shockingly wild.

Wow! That's crazy.
@@CanobieCoasterIt was amazing! I came off bruised 😂
samurai would hate this
Why?
@CanobieCoaster Love coasters. but like you said it's terrifying !!!
😂.
Fast ride. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Yes it is.
Wow
Very fun.
