Larson International is an amusement ride designer and manufacturer based in Plainview, Texas, USA. The company has designed its own collection of amusement rides, as well as owning rights to rides originally designed by Bisch-Rocco and Sellner Manufacturing.

History

Larson International was founded by Walter and Sharon Larson in 1967. The company originally manufactured custom trailers, but unveiled its first ride - the Super Loop - in 1972. Larson also partnered with Chance Rides and A.R.M. on specific attractions, including the Aviator.[1]

In January 2011, Larson acquired Sellner Manufacturing after the company had been dealing with financial issues for several years.[2][3]

Larson partnered with Rocky Mountain Construction in 2023.
