Zamperla

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Zamperla Rides is a designing and manufacturing company in Vicenza, Italy. It is best known for creating thrill rides and roller coasters worldwide. The company also makes smaller coin operated rides commonly found inside shopping malls.

Unlike companies such as Intamin AG, Vekoma or Bolliger & Mabillard that concentrate on larger and faster roller coasters, Zamperla focuses on more family-friendly roller coasters that can be easily mass-produced, taken down and transported to different locations. They are also a major manufacturer of flat rides with such names as: Balloon Race, Bumper cars, Disk-O, Ferris Wheel, Water Flume Ride, Galleon/Swinging Ship, Discovery, Windshear, Tornado, Energy Storm, Z-Force, Mixer, Rotoshake, Turbo Force, and Power Surge.

Zamperla also builds roller coasters, like the powered Dragon Coaster, Mini Mouse, Zig Zag, and Tomb Raider: The Ride. In 2006, Zamperla announced a new launched Motocoaster, a roller coaster themed to motorcycles.
