The eventual replacement (for 2006) was yet another Huss Enterprise – sourced from Drayton Manor theme park – that was differently decorated to the original (2001–2004), having a plain white finish on the spokes and minimal red stripes.

Eventually, the suspended gondolas are being forced almost completely sideways at a speed of 13.5 revolutions per minute and the disc starts to pitch upwards into the air on a powerful hydraulic arm.

Once the spinning disc has reached the maximum tilt of 70°, riders are almost inverting in the suspended cars, completing a manoeuvre similar to a vertical loop element of a rollercoaster.

As soon as maximum tilt is reached, the arm lowers again, the disc slows and riders slowly come to a halt as gravity takes over and reorientates the base of the gondolas towards ground.

On the rare occasion that Zodiac (or any other HUSS Enterprise) tilts over 90 degrees, an emergency stop procedure is initiated.
