I saw it tonight on that reality show, The Bachelorette and noticed as they were riding it, the gondolas are able to spin and the Wheel itself is rather tall too! [:0] The only other Wheel I know that has spinning gondolas like that is the Sun Wheel. Strates had the Sun Wheel on their midway at the NC State Fair in 1994 as I have video of it on a VHS tape somewhere around here. Anyway, just wanted to know the exact height of the La Grande Wheel and who's the maker of it? I know just by looking at it, it's most likely taller than that SkyWheel down at Myrtle Beach.. I probably won't ever get to ride it (La Grande Rou) as I've never been overseas before. Therefore, I won't ever get to enjoy those large fairs they have over there either, or a ride on the KMG XXL. ✌ ....unless a park or show here in the states buys a KMG XXL.
