The most recent addition, a Waltzer flat ride, is arguably the company's most distinctive ride in the U.S. market.According to RCS vice president Ben Pickett, the Waltzer is a staple of carnivals in the U.K. and Europe.

Call for Industry Participation To maintain momentum in Washington, the ...   [read more]
