Wow you're good at teasing us!

Can't wait to hear more about this new attraction. Good news that operators are bringing more rides into Aus; probably never a better time with the Aussie dollar so strong against all the major European and American currencies.

Looking sensational. Can't wait to ride. There can never be too many Zippers operating, Afterall, how many shows do you see with one? definitely room for another.

Yep I'm thrilled another Zipper is about to tour the country. Will this one do a lot of regional shows and carnivals?

Good luck with it; I will definitely ride it some time soon.

The camera idea sounds great. I rode my first zipper this year at Brisbane Ekka. I love all types of rides but this one I have always steered clear off. My mate talked me in to riding it so I did. Well what a awesome experience and of course because he works on the showgrounds as a operator for Paul Buckley the Zippers guys knew him so we got the mega extra spin treatment before we even moved.
I would have loved to see my face riding this for the first time. I think it will definately draw a crowd around the ride too if you have the videos with live feed out the front of the ride like the Gravatron used to do to.
