Peter Theunisz of KMG had a slew of sales and deliveries to report. After the Pandemic, he took many orders from showmen who had either put on hold a previous order or were purchasing with an optimistic look for the coming seasons. Now those orders are being delivered here to the States.
In the coming weeks, a new XXL ride will be delivered to Iconic Midway Attractions, owned by Marina and Johann Small. Mr. Ed's Magical Midways will also be receiving a new Freak Out ride being delivered in the next few weeks.
Other deliveries coming in 2024 include:
A Surf Ride will be going to Beauce Carnaval in Canada in March
Fiesta Shows will be receiving a new Freak Out in April
Sean Butler will take delivery of an XXL in July
An X-Drive is going to Bishop Amusements in Sept.
Butler will also get a Move It in December of this year.
Theunisz will be selling the used Freak Out Fiesta Shows is replacing and is hoping to get some good leads at the show.
In addition to the above rides, Theunisz is working on a deal for an Inversion ride to possibly be sold to a Polish showman this week.
KMG has been busy building and delivering rides and the production slots at the factory are scarce. Currently, they have one slot for November, 2025 and a slot in 2026 before issuing 2027 delivery dates.
Even with all the building and delivery, KMG has had time to develop a brand new attraction, the Lunarix. Announced just last week, the ride moves on the same size trailer as a Freak Out.
Standing 80' tall at its peak, the ride has two large gondolas at either side of the pendulum, There are 8 single seats per end of the ride for a total capacity of 16.
Making the ride unique, the cars are completely free swinging and move sideways. There are three actions to the ride; the swing of the pendulum, the rotation of the ends and the swinging of the cars.
The ride weighs about 38 tons and perhaps best of all, it does not require a water ballast.
The first Lunarix will be going to a showman outside the US. Delivery is scheduled for June of 2025. The second slot available for the ride will be November of 2025. When the unnamed showmen saw the drawing of the ride at the IAAPA show in Orlando, he already had placed a deposit on a ride to be built. Seeing the Lunarix however, he asked if the deposit could be moved to the new piece. KMG agreed, and he will be the first owner of this new spectacular attraction.
Theunisz said the ride is surprisingly similar in price to that of the Freakout and he expects there will be quite a bit of interest in the November 2025 slot for the piece.
In addition I was told that 13, 16, 28, 29 50, 84, 100, 111, 142, 143, 181, 182, 199, 204, 216, 239, 242, 254, 257 & 260 were used for other KMG Projects and not for Amusement Rides.
Mike Demas ist ein Independant Ride Operator, der wohl auch der Besitzer des Unternehmens West Coast Skyways ist. Ich vermute mal, dass ist die Seilbahn auf der Texas State Fair.
Beside his portable equipment, Demas holds the fair's contract for managing two permanent attractions: the Texas Skyway, the fair's gondola ride that transports fairgoers 65 feet above ground; and the Top O' Texas observation tower, a 500-foot structure that made its debut in 2013.
Demas hat wohl bereits mehrere KMG Rides geführt und besessen.
zwei Afterburner:
Fireball => Amusements of America (USA)
X-treme => Südamerika
Rock It (Inversion) => Mitchell Brothers & Sons, Slidell, LA (USA)
Konga (Tropical Trip) nur 2017 => Ray Cammack Shows ab 2018
Ich könnte mir auch vorstellen, dass er Teilinhaber von The Beast ist. Neben Talley wird hier das Unternehmen Sky Spectacle in Dallas, TX (USA) benannt.
Alternativ wird beim Verkauf von Konga 2018 von einem Geschäftswechsel bei Demas gesprochen. Demas war auch der erste Besitzer des Afterburners, der 2017 auf der Ohio State Fair einen Unfall mit Todesfolge hatte. Hatte dieser Unfall eventuell auch einen Zusammenhang mit dem Geschäftswechsel?

Der erste Lunarix wurde in die USA an das Unternehmen Kissel Endertainment verkauft. Es wird die fünfte Ausgabe dieses neuen Fahrgeschäftstypus.
Zwei weitere folgen 2029 für Peachtree Amusement und Sean Butler.
KMG introduced their new Lunarix ride last year, and sales are starting to pile up. The ride, a cross between an Inversion and Speed, reaches as high as 78'. It holds 16 riders at a time. The ride travels on one trailer and does not require a crane for set up. It takes about 4 hours to set up and does not require a water ballast tank. It travels on one road-legal trailer. The ride also comes with a full LED package.

The first edition of the ride is going to Australia, but version #5 will be going to Kissel Entertainment in the US. Other US purchases of the ride include one to Peachtree Rides for an early 2029 delivery and a copy to Sean Butler in April of 2029.
Also coming soon to North America is an X-Drive ride going to Canada and an X-Drive for Power's Great American Midways for summer of 2025. A Move -It is also coming to a park in March of 2029.
