I'm very curious on this...
What one or two rides (besides rollercoasters), in your opinion, are the most head-spinning, dizzying, vomit inducing flat rides out there?
I'm referring to your own personal experience where even you felt it was a little extreme on it's spinning/flying action.
(this doesn't include rough jerky rides... I'm talkin' about the ones that were made to make you sick!)
Nothing really gets me sick, but I would have to say that I've seen more people throw up after riding the Zipper than any other ride.
Tea cups and Mad Cows. Before I get on tea cups, I have to pick a spot to lay down after I get off, because I will be so out of it that I can't pick one out when I get off. The only time I ever lost it on a coaster was when I made the mistake of ridding Medusa right after making myself sick on the Mad Cows at SFGAdv.
I would say Tasmanian Devil (Huss Frisbee) at SFMW can get me kinda sick. It only happens though when it starts spinning one direction and then changes to the opposite direction.
Teacups, Rotor, and Evolution...all of which can be found at SFGAd!

Is there a web site I can go to, to see what these flat rides look like. I always feel so lost with the names, because my home park is the one and only PKI. Home of a scrambler, an octopus, Shake, Rattle, and Roll, a swinging ship, bumper cars, swings, and flying dutchshoes(eagles). Yep that's it(our enterprise, Flight Commander, and ferris wheel went bye-bye).

Nothing induces vomit on me, but for my mom and sister a ferris wheel will do it.

The Zipper. Period. Go to the Thrillride.com Ride Review for it if you don't know what it is.

What is a zipper ride?? The most vomitting ride for me would have to be the constantly spinning rides, such as the tea cups and the spinning gravitron. I take after my father, if I spin around and around in circles constanly for awhile, I get really really dizzy :( It sux!

At the Wisconsin State Fair, me and my friend got stuck in the Zipper.
IT WAS AWESOME!!! Spinning doesn't affect me at all, I have an iron stomach, but my friend that was with me was getting kind of sick.
I tried to spin the cabin over and over again, and it worked, cause even though my friend was sick, he helped. We spun around many times.
Like after an hour, the carnies finally figured out what was wrong and we got out.
I love the Zipper :)

Has anyone ever ridden a Zamperla 'Wind Shear'?
It looks kind of like a Huss Top Spin that's gone hay wire! If you have ridden it... where was it at? It looks completely wikid!
I see all these great dizzying, dazzling spin & puke rides on Zamperla's, Huss', & Chance's web sites... but of all the parks I've been to, I haven't seen ANY of them!! If you heard of these... what parks are they located at? ->
* The Zamperla Hawk
* The Zamperla Typhoon
* The Zamperla Tornado
* The Huss Frisbee
* The Huss Jump
* The Huss Takeoff
I don't know about anyone else, but rollercoasters never even make me come close to throwing up. Any type of spinning ride can make me a little nauseous, but the only time i threw up was after going on three consecutive spinning rides at a carnival. I have hated anything that spins ever since.
Definitely tea cups. They're really the only thing I've ever gotten sick and/or dizzy on, but they sure did the job well.
Try spinning around really fast in your computer chair!
Just a joke.;)
ive been on zipper and have been on a ride thats much worse. zipper doesnt do anything to me but GRAVITRON will easily get me sick. what it is is kinda like a spinning cake mix. you are against the walls and not strapped in. once it gets started the force pulls u against the walls and u can rotate yourself upside down. im gettin sick just thinking of it. its all indoors and gets u soo sick it suxs
There is a Zamperla Hawk at Kennywood, I don't remember the name, something like Aero36. There is also one at SFMW called "Great White"
Various parks have a Huss Frisbee. There is one at SFMW, SFFT and Jazzland, just to name a few.
The only park I know has a Huss Jump is SFGAdv. I think it's called something like "Jumpin' Jack Flash."
The only time that a ride made me sick was when I was able to go on 3 consecutive runs of the Rotor. I don't know how the rotor man does it.
Spider and Tea Cups for me. It is strange that I don't feel any effects when on other rides like Chaos etc.

The old fashioned Tilt-O-Whirl after chewing on a pack of gum, I have no idea why but it made me quesy. I've pretty much avoided spin & Spews since
