HUSS Park Attractions has achieved a landmark moment at the IAAPA Brass Ring Awards, securing two prestigious honors for its innovative ride concepts.

A Legacy of Excellence at IAAPA Brass Ring Awards
Renowned as a hallmark of excellence in the global attractions industry, the IAAPA Brass Ring Awards celebrate innovation and outstanding achievements across theme parks, water parks, museums, zoos, and entertainment centers. Named after the brass rings on early carousel rides, these awards are a symbol of distinction in the leisure industry. HUSS®’s recognition at this year’s IAAPA Expo Orlando continues its decades-long tradition of showcasing excellence as a trusted exhibitor.
Break Dance 5: Revolutionizing a Timeless Classic
The Break Dance 5, unveiled at Vienna’s historic Prater amusement park, reinvents the iconic ride that has delighted millions since its introduction nearly 40 years ago. Known as the “Laser Dance,” this latest iteration enhances the original Break Dance formula with cutting-edge updates.
The ride features 30% more power and an increase in top speed by 30%, delivering an exhilarating experience for thrill-seekers. A standout feature of the Break Dance 5 is its central operator booth, which doubles as a DJ station, allowing operators to orchestrate rides dynamically. With innovative queue systems catering to families and thrill-seekers, plus customizable options for lighting, sound, and themes, the Break Dance 5 is as engaging for onlookers as it is for riders.
Sky Tower Multimedia: Immersive Experiences Meet Iconic Views
HUSS® also impressed with the Sky Tower Multimedia, a concept that blends the classic observation tower with immersive multimedia entertainment. This ride transforms the traditional observation experience by integrating a 360° 3D theater beneath its panoramic gondola. Guests first descend into an immersive cinematic environment, exploring underwater worlds, outer space, or other unique scenarios, before ascending to enjoy sweeping views through the tower’s expansive windows.
The first Sky Tower Multimedia installation, already operational at Golden Bay Resort in Shenzhen, China, highlights its versatility. Adaptable to various themes and customizable with multimedia content and lighting, the ride offers operators endless possibilities to create standout attractions.
A Vision for the Future of Ride Innovation
The dual recognition at the IAAPA Brass Ring Awards underscores HUSS®’s commitment to redefining the amusement experience. With a rich history of developing iconic attractions, the company continues to innovate by enhancing its classics and delivering forward-thinking concepts. HUSS® aims to inspire future generations of riders with designs that prioritize accessibility, adaptability, and immersive storytelling.
As HUSS® celebrates this achievement, it remains focused on its mission to lead the way in creating unique, memorable experiences for the global attractions industry.
