I went to the Wisconsin State Fair last Friday, and it was awesome. The main attraction was the Schwarzkopf Wildcat, named the "Jack's Pizza Comet II".

Awesome, a KMG Move It 24. I haven't seen one on the dutch fairgrounds since 2004.

And about the Zipper thing. It's a typical American Fairground ride. You won't find them outside the USA. Why? I don't know... [lol] Still need to ride on of those, they look awesome!

Zipper = Pain, a scare the poop out of you oh know the restraints are not holding me in I half to hold my self in with my arms, and more pain.

I love the zipper. Its easy to ride it, just put your elbows/arms above your head against the roof to brace yourself and your all good. Its more fun tho to not hold on, just gotta be careful, I almost ate the door at one point. I've played "catch the floating cellphone" also. Very fun.
