The ride experience on Sound Wave

Sound Wave combines a circular ride with the gondolas’ lifting movements. You experience a rhythmic rise and fall as the view of your surroundings moves around. Ten gondolas, each with three seats, let you ride together with other guests. The appeal lies in the alternation between spinning and vertical movement. There is no long track, but a compact ride whose movements you can easily follow before boarding. Music and lights accompany the ride.

Technology and data

The following values describe the specifically named attraction. Set-up dimensions refer to the assembled ride; for rides that rise, the maximum movement height does not indicate the free-fall distance. The number of seats describes simultaneous occupancy, not hourly passenger capacity.

The actual ride duration and programme may vary between engagements. Check the information at the ride if you want to experience a particular ride variation.

The history of Sound Wave

Danny Schwerin’s ride was built in 2024. Ride-Index records the 16 August 2024 at the Bremerhaven Freimarkt as its debut. It is based on the Super Jump concept by SBF Visa. Here, Sound Wave refers to Schwerin’s ride, not the similarly named Shock Wave by Hortz.

Operator

Danny Schwerin operates this ride on the travelling fair circuit. When looking for dates, it helps to search using both the ride name and the operator: rides with similar names may have a different design and history. You can find confirmed appearances in the funfair dates.

Tips for your visit

If you are visiting with children, it is best to check the seating arrangements in advance. The three seats in a gondola do not automatically mean that every age combination is allowed to ride without further conditions. Fares and terms of participation are set or displayed at each engagement. Before buying, ask about the minimum height, age limits and whether an accompanying adult is required. Follow the instructions when boarding and stow loose items as directed by the team.
