Mako and Kraken Scale Models
2021
Our Work
When SeaWorld Orlando in Orlando, Florida, USA was renovating its entrance-area coffee shop, they turned to Skyline Attractions to add some kinetic energy into the space. We created two operating scale model roller coasters, based off the real-life Kraken and Mako rides at the park. Both miniature rides were designed and created by Skyline Attractions VP Chris Gray.
To meet the tight deadline, we utilized a modified version of the Coasterdynamix consumer product. Modifications included technical adjustments to the train designs, support structures, and base frame.
