Gyro Swing

Swingi, a Gyro Swing at Linnanmäki operates with a 25-meter long arm combined with a rotating gondola accommodating 40 passengers. It swings back and forth, reaching heights of 42 meters at a 120-degree angle. Each swing provide riders with complete weightlessness at the top. Meanwhile, the enjoyable rotation ensures a dynamic ride experience with each swing and adds beautifully to each ride. Despite the ride’s thrilling visual appeal, Intamin’s Gyro Swing enjoys a wide ridership and is considered as one of the most favorite round ride in the world.

In addition, Swingi features a direct drive system, proven to be the most powerful on the market. It results in an incredibly smooth and dynamic ride experience. Furthermore, Intamin advanced this technology over the years resulting in a very low noise level from the direct-drive power unit.

Furthermore, the drive system enables the recovery of up to 40% of the power needed to operate the ride. Resulting in energy savings, and reduced operational costs for a more sustainable ride investment.

Moreover, passengers are seated in the suspended seating, secured by our most comfortable and service-proven restraint system without upper-body restrictions, which offers a high level of freedom to riders.

Linnanmäki introduced Swingi as a replacement for an old round ride, seeking a thrilling and iconic attraction that would fit within a restricted footprint. Therefore Intamin’s Gyro Swing is a great addition to the park’s lineup of rides.

Thanks to the fantastic collaboration with Linnanmäki’s creative team, Swingi’s theming was fully customized to match the unique musical theme of the ride.

We extend many thanks to our long-standing partners, Linnanmäki, for once again having placed their trust in us and to the whole team for their great collaboration on this beautiful project.
