Construction

The tower is constructed from steel girders and contains large pneumatic cylinders to launch the car upwards.

Approximate Cost

$800 upwards

Size

3 x 3 tiles

Other Information

The Whoa Belly has an additional operating mode, "Downward Launch" (Corkscrew Follies/Added Attractions and onward). This pulls the ride up to the top of the tower and drops it, like the Roto-Drop, but then it "bounces" back up after hitting the bottom.

This ride is called Launched Freefall in both RCT2 and RCT3.

In Real Life

Whoa Belly is modeled after the pneumatic drop/launch towers manufactured by S&S.
