A short video of the "Wave," a themed Trabant ride owned by Tommy's Midway. This video was taken at the Feast of Corpus Christi Carnival in Chatham, NJ.

I also shot this using my digital camera's movie function; it actually doesn't look too bad (before YouTube compressed it at least) but the sound isn't that great.

  • That is SOOO not fair. The one I've been on about 100 times, simply goes forwards, up, then down, then suddenly stop. None of the variable speed changing and going backwards :mad:!!!! RAWR! Can you post a full video of this ride, if you can?

  • Sorry, I don't have a full video.

    However, I'll probably get a full video next time considering how few Trabant videos are on YouTube.

  • When's next time? Also, true about the 'few' bit... and if they are, it's usually a really crappy soundless video recorded on the lowest quality mobile phone camera possible, and lasting about 10 seconds <_<

  • Like next year. lol

    Around April is when fairs and carnivals start happening again around here.

  • these rides are becoming increcingly rare

  • That's what I thought last year when I saw a travling Trabant. However since then I've seen at least three different ones traveling aorund the NJ/NY area!

  • That ride looks so fun... I wish they would just come back with a generation of ancient flat rides. Trabant, Rotor, Octopus, Rock-O-Plane, Sidewinder... I miss 'em all

    No one needs a ride called the El Nino or Satan's B***h Slap

  • knotts berry farm hahews a ride like that called wipeout. except the sseats face eachother so one person goes forwards and one backwards.

  • @theultimatekoopa2 Yeah who ever is operaterating this ride...Sure knows how to bring out the full potential of the machine..really knows how to screw with people and make this ride fun!!! Most operater of the rides are just lazy and do the basics and in 3 mins the ride is over...

  • I've been on the Trabant several times. Once in KC I happened upon the Cloudpoofer 2000, an indoor Wipeout. Unfortunately, I got sick on it but made it to the end without ruining others' rides. Just that one particular installation. My favorite older ride is the Octopus.

  • My all time favorite ride. This one needs some TLC.

  • damn dude my kind of ride! HELL YEAH

  • I went on one of those at the fair this summer, I HATED it, it and the Spider.

  • cé comme le hully gully
