I really liked how this one articulated. 

How about in your neck of the woods?

On a thing like that you'd need a brolly or a raincoat to protect you from getting chunks in the neck  ;D :o

I rode one of those before too; her name was 'Sally'.

Another type of protection needed maybe  :P

It's Windshear at Divo Ostrov in St Petersburg. People seem to think's it's a Vekoma Waikiki Wave Super Flip, but it looks completely different to me.
