If you haven't seen it in action, you've missed trade show and fair crowds lined up in anticipation. And you haven't seen the smiles and expressions on the faces of thrill riders as they disembark from any of the sensational simulator programs.

CA Thrillrides is a mini theatre that moves!

Thrillrides use the same technology as the motion simulator that tours with the famed Canadian Air Force Snowbirds demonstration team, not to mention Disneyland's famous Star Tours and Body Tours and the Tour of the Universe attraction at the CN Tower in Toronto, Ontario.

The system synchronizes a computer generated movie, complete with sound and motion, to give passengers an unbelievably realistic experience.

Several programs are available on land, sea, mountains and air - all incorporating the sights, sounds and feel of the real thing!

"I was at the Saskatoon Car Show," recalls Curly Arlein, owner of CA Thrillrides, "and I can hear all this screaming. I went to check it out and I see this motion simulator, with a line-up a mile long to get on.

Inside people are going crazy! When the ride was over, I watched These people getting off - they're laughing, their legs are wobbly - and I'm thinking to myself 'there's something here'."

"I kept coming back to check on the crowds - and people just kept coming."

It was right then that Curly knew the direction his career was going - and CA Thrillrides was born.
