Design
A Wild Swing is essentially a Top Spin that doesn't invert. It features one bench with 8 seats on either side, making for a total of 16 seats. The bench is attached to two arms, which are controlled by electric motors. The connection between the arms and the bench isn't controlled by a motor and swings freely, unlike on normal top spins. This prevents the ride from inverting and allows it to give a family friendly yet thrilling ride.
