Giant Ski Jump

Hire from £2,895 plus VAT.

A flying coaster with a snowman in the middle

The Giant Ski Jump is a mechanical Flying Coaster - the round sort of ride where your car travels an undulating circular track, climbing the raised sections and dropping over the other side rather than sitting flat. Six enclosed cars ride the track, built like sleighs with painted snow along their edges, and the up-and-over motion is where the ski jump name comes from.

It gives a fair more movement than a children's roundabout without turning into a white-knuckle ride. Children ride it, and so do the adults with them, and the adults tend to come off grinning as well.

The winter theme is proper rather than a sticker job. There is a top-hatted snowman stood in the centre, winter sports artwork on the panels, an illuminated SKI JUMP sign and snow-covered fencing right round the perimeter, which makes it a natural centrepiece for a Christmas event or winter wonderland. It pulls a queue at a summer corporate family day just the same, and it sits happily between the Waltzer and the Runaway Train in a mixed line-up.

Giant Ski Jump at Your Event

  • Undulating Track

    The six enclosed cars travel a circular track that climbs and drops over raised sections, giving the ride its ski jump motion and a fair bit more than a roundabout.

  • Winter Theming

    A top-hatted snowman stands at the centre, with winter sports artwork on the panels, an illuminated SKI JUMP sign and snow-effect fencing around the whole perimeter.

  • Christmas Centrepiece

    The snow-and-ice look makes it a natural centre for a Christmas event or winter wonderland, and it runs just as well at a summer family day.

  • All Ages Together

    Children and adults ride together in the sleigh-style cars. Age and height rules apply and are confirmed with your quote.

  • Fully Fenced

    The ride arrives set up inside its own fenced surround, so riders and onlookers are kept apart without the venue supplying barriers.

  • £5m Public Liability

    Five million pounds of public liability insurance, with risk assessments and safety documents for your organiser or venue available before the day.

Space, surface and access

Exact space, access, power and rider requirements must be checked for your venue before booking, so send us the site address, surface, access details and event times with your enquiry and we will confirm the practical details rather than guess at them.

Outdoors it goes on grass or suitable hard standing, and indoors it can work on artificial grass or a hard floor where the clear height and route in are right. A site plan is the most useful thing you can send, along with photographs of the vehicle approach.

If there is no mains power where the ride is going, we can supply a generator - just say so when you enquire.

The film shows the cars climbing and dropping round the track with the snowman turning above them, which gives a better account of the ride than a photograph taken between cycles can.

It is a mechanical Flying Coaster. Six enclosed sleigh-style cars travel an undulating circular track, climbing and dropping over the raised sections as they pass the snowman in the middle.

Is the Ski Jump only for Christmas events?

No. The winter theming makes it a natural centrepiece for a Christmas event or winter wonderland, but it goes out through the summer to corporate family days, schools, community events and private funfairs as well.
