Where's a Huss Topple Tower?

After perusing the Huss site to learn more about the Fly Away from the Nightwing thread, I came upon the page for the Topple Tower, here

It looks like a very entertaining ride, kind of like PKI's Delerium, but in reverse. Is there one of these in the U.S.? If so, where? Thanks.

None in the US, that much I know for sure. I don't think any have been sold...yet.

I remember reading somewhere that one was being installed in Europe, somewhere. It may have been on Screamscape. . .right after the Topple Tower was announced. I, too, would like to see one.

As I recall from attending IAAPA this year, this was a new ride for them. I think it was just developed and from what I know of, it has not yet been sold.

I still maintain that this would be better than the S&S tower at the top of the Stratosphere.

Is that a Q-bot in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?

That's really cool. I want one!

Is that one of the Giant rides, or is that a non-Giant ride?

That's a regular, good old classic ride. I'd love to see a version pop up in the land of the giants, though. Wow.

It's that "classic" designation that had me confused. In my book, you use that description when something has been around a while and stood the test of time. Just imagine if we brought out a brand-new 2004-model car and referred to it as one of our "classics". That's why I figured there had to be a couple in existence somewhere.

Looks like lots of fun, kind of a giant frisbee gone retarded or something.

Holy ****!! That would be so scary! I would have to think twice about actually riding it if it was on the Stratosphere! But I am sure that after I did ride it, it would be AWESOME! :)

The picture doesn't do the ride justice, you must download the animation. It looks crazy.

Exactly! Paramount's Kings Island is already the home of two HUSS scream machines, why not one more?

Does look like an awesomely cool ride....I just hope to get to ride one with the water effects FULLY operating....the TopSpins I've gotten to ride, incl. TR:TR, have been run with little or no water...

Gators *love* the water ya know...;)

Bleh, the water ruins it. If there was a chance I'd get soaked, I'd probably not ride.

The only reason I rode TR:TR is that I forgot you might get wet until I was strapped in. Fortunately the jet stream missed me by a few inches... ;)
