History

The ride was the first and only Rollover to be built by Nottingham UK. The Rollover was Nottingham UK's attempt at trying to compete against KMG's Para Jump. Instead of one large outward-facing gondola, the ride featured 8 sideways-facing gondolas on the bench, which were capable of turning upside down as the ride picked-up speed. The ride was not a success, and the ride was converted to a standard Miami in 1999. After being converted to a standard Miami, the gondola originally had a lap-bar type bench, but in 2008, the gondola was converted to a dangly feet type bench.

The ride in 1998, with the original Rollover seats
