I think in this instance, Zamperla have produced a superior design (at least looks-wise) with their pioneering Disk-O.

I rode a Disk-O in USA and was pleasantly surprised by it, a good family thrill ride and very comfortable and innovative restraint system. The only downside of this design is it uses up a lot of frontage, and unlike say a Kamikaze, you can't slot it in from the side and still have it visible. This is its only downfall for the travelling showmen, as pointed out to me by a ride owner.
