Vertical Swing Tower, Zero Gravity & Tagada
Sky Kingdom in Surat, Gujarat commissioned Amuse Engineering Ride for a three-ride thrill package designed to establish a signature adrenaline zone within the park. The scope covered the Vertical Swing Tower 75 Ft, Zero Gravity, and Tagada — three well-loved thrill rides that together deliver a complete adrenaline experience across height, spin, and impact-motion categories.
The Vertical Swing Tower stands with a swing-out chair arrangement — 24 riders lifted skyward on a tall central column with rotating chair swings. The Zero Gravity delivers a distinctive tilting-rotor experience — a 19-seat tilting drum that spins guests upward as centrifugal force pins them against the wall. The Tagada is a 24-passenger circular platform ride with an electric-and-pneumatic drive system that generates rapid random movements — a genuinely intense classic thrill experience popular across Indian amusement parks.
All three rides were delivered on a supply and commissioning basis — covering engineering, in-house fabrication at Valsad, transportation to Surat, on-site installation support, drive-system commissioning, and operator training. The three rides were positioned together to form a defined thrill zone within the park layout.
