Round and around – where will the Zodiac take you?<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
<\/span><\/p>\n
Zodiac is a staple theme park ride. In pictures it may look like a Ferris wheel but in fact, this spinning wheel of centripetal force rotates as fast as 45rpm, starting out flat and tilting to an 87\u00b0 angle into the sky. There are no restraints or seat belts on Zodiac \u2013 but don\u2019t worry, it\u2019s built like that! Riders sit in pods and because of the speed of rotation of the wheel, centripetal force keeps riders firmly in their seats even when practically vertical as they spin above the Lost City!<\/span><\/p>\n
Once securely locked into your pods, the ride starting and you rotate around the central axis. At first it\u2019s like going in a high-speed roundabout, then suddenly the ride lifts up out of the ground on a central arm and sends riders spinning into the spies above. After two minutes, Zodiac begins to slow and the ride returns to its normal position, ready for its next batch of willing adventurers!<\/span>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_margin=”0px||||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_testimonial portrait_url=”https:\/\/www.thorpeparkmania.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/TwitterLogo.jpg” quote_icon=”off” portrait_width=”45px” portrait_height=”45px” _builder_version=”4.16″ background_image=”https:\/\/www.thorpeparkmania.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/patt28.jpg” background_size=”contain” background_repeat=”repeat” background_layout=”dark” custom_padding=”23px||10px||false|false” animation_style=”fade” border_radii=”on|10px|10px|10px|10px” border_width_all_portrait=”3px” border_color_all_portrait=”#ffffff” box_shadow_style_image=”preset1″ text_shadow_style=”preset3″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n
