Shockwave, Disk'O amusement ride in Queensland, Australia

The Shockwave propels riders through a 63-meter wave-shaped track while rotating at 12 revolutions per minute, reaching speeds of 50 kilometers per hour.

Intamin, a leading manufacturer of amusement rides, developed the Shockwave as part of their specialized Disk'O series of entertainment attractions.

The Shockwave represents the growing demand for high-intensity rides in Australian entertainment venues, shifting from traditional carnival experiences to modern thrill attractions.

Visitors need to measure at least 120 centimeters in height to experience the ride, and express passes are available during peak times to reduce waiting periods.

The ride combines vertical and horizontal movements with 360-degree spins, generating forces up to 2.5Gs during its operation sequence.
