The first Unicoaster is finished and final testing has started at the Chance Rides factory in Wichita, Kansas. This fascinating new ride features eight rotating arms with two passenger vehicles on each arm. This ride uniquely allows each vehicle’s passengers to control their own spin, both in forward or backward direction. This passenger interactivity gives the riders a completely different experience each time they ride.
Co-creator Bill Kitchen said, “We were looking for a way to reinvent the roller coaster but on a smaller footprint. The Unicoaster gives riders all of the thrills of a looping inverted roller coaster at a fraction of the space and price.”

Sounds like a great candidate for smaller theme parks and fairs. Hopefully I'll see one of these around my next of the woods sometime.
