harvesterofyoursorrow Posted June 24, 2005 Share Posted June 24, 2005 This may be weird to some people, but I have been looking around at stats for the XL Frisbee and the Giant Frisbee on hussrides.com and I've seen that on their website it seems that Delirium is a XL Frisbee not a Giant. Here are the stats for the Giant Frisbee. Here are the stats for the XL Frisbee. Notice how the picture in the XL has a catwalk? Notice how the Giant doesnt? Also, on the XL page, Delirium is pictured. I know it is Delirium becuase in one of the pictures you see Sligshot in the backround. I'm not sure what this means but it really confuses me.

You can even see the Eiffel Tower in one of the pictures. That is cool to see that on their web site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HelixSpiral Posted June 25, 2005 Share Posted June 25, 2005 A Frisbee XL seems to be a slightly smaller (therefore, cheaper) version of the Giant Frisbee, holding 40 riders instead of 50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral Ackbar Posted June 25, 2005 Share Posted June 25, 2005 Well there is a HUSS rides plaque on the front of the Delirium drive box, and a sign below it clearly labels it as a Giant Frisbee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I know there is, but the fact is that the pictures and technical drawings on the XL page are of Delirium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HelixSpiral Posted June 25, 2005 Share Posted June 25, 2005 I think the XL drawings are simply more detailed. The drawings on the Giant Frisbee page are just simple representations. They probably used the Delirium photos because a regular Frisbee looks a bit different from a Giant/XL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harvesterofyoursorrow Posted June 25, 2005 Author Share Posted June 25, 2005 Actually, the Giant Frisbee (pictured on hussrides.com) dosent have the catwalks. If you look at all the themeing ideas you see that the catwalks arent there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coasterfan Posted June 26, 2005 Share Posted June 26, 2005 While on the web site it does say that the Giant changes directions and doesn't show a catwalk, there are three things that show the Delirium is definatly a Giant and not an XL. 1: On Huss's site it says that the max speed for an XL is 63mph, but on PKI's site and on Delirium it self it states that the max speed is 72mph. 2: The XL can only hold 40 people while the GF can hold 50, on PKI's site and Delirium it says the ride capacity is 50. 3: The XL's max swing height is 120' while the GF's is 137', again on PKI's site and Delirium it says the max height is 137'.

Vortex Posted June 26, 2005 Share Posted June 26, 2005 (edited) PKI does have a Giant Frisbee. While back under giant they had video of Delirium being tested before it made its way to PKI. here is a link to the video.
