Psyclone

Psyclone is a pendulum ride at the amusement park that swings riders high into the air in a thrilling arc. Passengers sit on outward-facing seats mounted around a central pivot point, experiencing rapid movement as the ride swings back and forth.

The ride arrived at the park in 2002 when it replaced a water-based attraction that previously occupied the same location. Its installation represented an expansion of thrilling mechanical rides during that period of the park's growth.

The ride stands as an example of modern mechanical engineering in theme parks, demonstrating the evolution of entertainment technology in Ontario.

Visitors must be at least 137 centimeters tall to ride this attraction. The ride moves through its cycle fairly quickly, which helps keep lines manageable during busy periods.

The ride uses a specialized floor system that lowers before operation to allow the pendulum to swing fully without obstruction. This engineering solution is not visible to most guests but essential to how the ride functions.
