The “Top Spin Suspended” ride was created by Huss, which describes it this way:

38 riders sit back-to-back on our floorless suspended gondola with nothing at their feet but the open air on this compact, easy-to-install HUSS® Original. It’s never the same ride twice on this extreme thrill ride, with multiple ride pattern combinations including pendulum swings, exciting rotations in any position, sudden, unexpected turns, and dizzying spins.

Looks fun, and they did a great job with the theming on this installation, but there are other ride manufacturers like Moser’s Rides that build pretty much the same ride except that the arms can also pivot independently of each other for an extra dose of queasiness:

AYKM? Nooooooooooooooo…

OK, for $10 grand or more. OK, make that $9,999.99. Not a penny less!

Looks like some stupid and needlessly elaborate mass torture device designed by some ridiculous cartoon villain.
