strength and try to win a cigar or other prize by using a sledgehammer and lever to drive a small cylindrical weight up a wire to ring a bell fixed to a high wooden backboard.The SwingerResembling a much smaller version of the Flying Aeroplane/Rocket tower, this ride carried 24 individual wooden seats suspended in pairs from cables and revolved at a moderate speed around a central steel tower. It was situated directly in front of the east end snack bar, but was later removed to make way for other attractions.The SkylinerThe Skyliner was installed in the mid-1960s. Very similar in design and operation to a ski-lift, it carried passengers in double seats with a single safety bar, suspended by a cable, at a slow and easy pace along a straight path and back again, affording them an aerial view of the park and the beach beyond.Ferris wheelThere were a number of different Ferris wheels in the park throughout its history, both movable and fixed.The Roll-O-PlaneThe popular name of the Roll-O-Plane was "The Salt & Pepper Shaker", because patrons sometimes reported losing loose change or other items from their pockets during the ride.Round UpThe Round Up was a cylindrical platform ride where standing riders were spun around at a high speed until centrifugal force increased to the point where they were pressed against the wall behind them with such a force that they could not move or fall forward. A control arm would then raise the cylinder to nearly a half-vertical position for a set period of time before the ride was leveled again, and slowed to a stop.The ParatrooperThe Paratrooper was a small, portable "Umbrella Ride", which was installed in the mid-late-1960s when the popularity of the park began to decline.The TrabantThe Trabant was an older version of the Wipeout ride, and can be seen in its original location in the Rollercoaster film in a wide-shot scene where the various rides in the park are slowing to a stop following the crash of "The Rocket".The "Snakes Alive!" Reptile House'The site of the old turn of the century bath house was occupied by the "Snakes Alive!" reptile house in the 1950s and 1960s, with an exhibit of live snakes and, for a time, a fully grown, adult alligator. The Snack Bar A sizable snack bar was located on the east side of the area containing the mechanical rides described above, and
