Evolution, Pendulum ride in Lichtaart, Belgium
(R)evolution is a pendulum ride at Bobbejaanland theme park where passengers sit in rotating cars mounted on a large swinging arm. The arm swings riders through changing heights and angles while the cars spin independently, combining pendulum motion with rotation for a dynamic experience.
The ride was added to the park as part of its expansion with modern pendulum-rotation technology. It represents how ride manufacturers combined mechanical engineering to create complex motion sequences that thrill visitors.
The (R)evolution ride at Bobbejaanland draws visitors from Belgium and neighboring countries who seek high-intensity entertainment experiences.
Visitors must be at least 120 centimeters tall to ride this attraction. Loose items should be secured before boarding, and it is helpful to follow staff instructions carefully for a safe and comfortable experience.
The cars tip backward 90 degrees during the ride, positioning passengers horizontally while the main arm completes full 360-degree rotations. This unusual combination of tumbling motion and complete rotation creates an intense sensation of weightlessness.
