[Presse] Le Pal erhält zweiten Huss King Kong

Zitat HUSS King Kong ride to open at Le Pal in 2009
French park chooses new family ride from renowned German manufacturer

For Immediate Release

Bremen, Germany (July 7th., 2008) German ride manufacturer HUSS Park Attractions has
announced the sale of a King Kong ride to Le Pal, in France, for the 2009 season.

King Kong is the latest addition to the wide range of family rides available from HUSS and was
originally developed in conjunction with animation and theming specialist Heimo animated
attractions Mordelt GmbH and Co. KG. It features a host of newly engineered movements,
numerous special effects and highly detailed theming both on and around the attraction to
create a unique experience.

Inspired by the world famous King Kong movie, the attraction features a single, 24-seat
gondola which passengers enter at ground level. As the ride sequence begins, the huge figure
of King Kong, positioned behind the vehicle, appears to grab the gondola and stand up
straight, before slowly shaking it, creating swinging and tipping motions. As the experience
continues, the gondola is lifted to its maximum height adjacent to King Kongs head, at which
time a series of special effects including sound, mist and vibrating seats are triggered, as the
gorillas eyes shine in a show of crazed anger.

The gondola in which passengers are seated features bench style seats with a single safety
restraint for each one. The attraction has a height of 12.7m, a width of 11.5m and a depth of
10m. Hourly capacity is approximately 500 and rider height is from 0.9m to 1.95m. Three ride
programs are featured on the attraction.

We are very happy to announce the sale of one of our King Kong rides to Le Pal, commented
HUSS Park Attractions vice-president/director of sales, Michael Hesse. This is a great family
park and I am sure the King Kong ride will complement the wide range of attractions on offer
very well. It is a really fun ride, suitable for most age groups, and with excellent theming which
helps to create a complete experience. Im confident it will be very popular with visitors to
Le Pal.

Also delighted with the prospect of opening the new ride is Le Pal President and Director
General Arnaud Bennet, who commented: The park opened in 1973 with a zoo and in 1981
we added the amusement park element. Our first attraction at that time was a King Kong
themed ride, 6m. high with a truck which carried four passengers and was lifted into the air
by King Kong. It had a big impact on the children at that time and worked very nicely.

We took this off the park about 10 years ago and since then have received a lot of letters,
and more recently emails, from people who used to visit us when they were children and didnt
like the fact that we had taken the King Kong ride away. This attraction had a very strong
draw for our visitors and now there is still a call for King Kong to come back.

So when we heard about HUSS doing this new ride, which is obviously very different to the
one we used to have, we thought it could be a very good addition to the park which we could
promote as the return of King Kong to Le Pal. Also, it is a very family orientated ride so most
ages can ride it, which was another reason we chose it.

We think it will be very popular with visitors, particularly those who have known the park for
many years. It is a good attraction in itself, but because of the story and the history of
Le Pal relating to a King Kong ride, it will be very popular.

King Kong was chosen as the original theme for the ride by HUSS and is the standard version
available to customers. Alternative theming concepts can be created to incorporate the ride
into existing themed areas, while pre-show areas can also be developed on request, with
custom-built design according to client requirements.

Headquartered in Bremen, Germany, HUSS Park Attractions is a market leader in the
development, manufacture and sale of amusement rides throughout the world. HUSS was
founded in 1919 and is a limited partnership.
