Kenywood’s last-of-its-kind Kangaroo ride to return

These "flying coasters" are definitely a unique ride.

Waldameer had "The Bump" for decades.  Very fun ride for a group of kids (unless you were in the outside of the car....).

    I saw that Premier Rides would be assisting in the refurbishment of the ride.  It sure would be nice if they could start marketing this as a new classic ride for other parks to add to their line up.  Kings Island could use a classic flat ride or two.

    I'd be really curious to know what Pennsylvania's laws are on rides being up to ASTM code and/or ADA standards and/or other standards, whether Kangaroo was already there or not, and what change(s) will be required to get it running again. One could speculate that if the ride was carefully dismantled at the end of last year and did not have any issues meeting the standards required by law, there would be no reason to involve Premier in this process at all...

    Back when it was just a rumor I heard that a change to the restraints may be coming in order to bring it back.

    There is a video on YouTube that has one of these Flying Coasters at Cedar Point in 1963 located near Pagoda Gift Shop.
