Buying notes for the 63m Free Fall Ride
A 63 m free fall is not a ride you buy to fill a gap in the line-up. It is the reason people drive to your park instead of the one closer to home, and it changes what your park is.
DINIS builds this one around a 32-passenger cabin, a 63 m structure and an 80 km/h descent. Before you fall in love with the height, check two numbers: your power supply and your civil works budget.
The ride people drive to your park for
Local visitors come back for a good family park. Visitors from another city come for one thing they cannot get at home, and a 63 m free fall is that thing.
It lifts everything around it too: ticket price, dwell time, photograph value, and the reason a tour operator puts your park on an itinerary.
The two numbers that decide the project: 63 m and 520 kW
Height is the visible number. Power is the one that surprises buyers.
The ride needs 520 kW installed. That usually means a dedicated supply, a conversation with your utility company and a cable route planned before the foundation is poured. Start that early, because it is the longest item in the whole programme.
The site area is 15 x 15 m, which is modest for a landmark of this height.
Capacity: 180 riders an hour and how to sell it
The cabin carries 32 passengers per cycle and the documented throughput is 180 riders per hour.
Numbers like that suit a timed or premium ticket. A ride this tall rarely queues like a family coaster, and most operators price it as the highest-value attraction on site.
How it slows down: the question your inspector will ask
Free fall rides do not simply let go. The descent is controlled at 80 km/h, and the braking system stops a fully loaded cabin safely on every cycle.
We supply the braking description, the drawings and the inspection records with the machine. Put them in front of your local authority before the tower arrives, not after.
Ask for the braking diagram at enquiry stage
It is the fastest way to start a technical conversation with your inspector, and the diagram travels with the delivery documents.
Land, foundation and installation
Foundation
A tower of this height puts real load into the ground. Base loads and anchor layouts are issued with the drawings, and the concrete work is built locally to that specification.
Installation
The structure arrives in transportable sections. Plan the crane class, the access road and the assembly area before shipment, and keep the site fenced while the tower goes up.
Is a 63m free fall right for your park?
Yes, if you run a destination amusement park, a large theme park or a major fairground, and your site already supports a high-capacity power supply and a premium ticket.
No, if you run a family park, a mall or a resort without a dedicated supply. In those cases the 35 m rotating tower delivers vertical thrill on far less power and a much shorter project.
Questions buyers ask about a 63m free fall
How long does the ride last?
The lift takes longer than the drop, which is exactly why riders queue again. Your cycle plan comes from the throughput figure and your own loading routine.
Do we need special certification?
Expect your market to treat a ride of this size as a major installation. Full documentation comes with the machine, and local certification is confirmed with your authority.
Can it be themed?
Yes. Cabin appearance, lighting and the surrounding structure are the usual customizations.
