Kangaroo Overview
Circular ride with cars at the ends of arms and a circular track underneath at ground level. Each car has a hydraulic dampener on its arm, and a wheel underneath.
As the ride rotates, the cars run around the track, however at one point the track ramps up to a jump, thus as the ride rotates, each car is forced to travel up the jump and drop off the end (with the hydraulic dampener controlling the fall back down) creating strong airtime for riders.
