Chaos
Chance’s first Chaos was first produced in 1996, with just over 50 rides being built till production ceased in 2007.
Like Chance’s Turbo and Zipper, the ride movements involve the random balance of its cars on an axis. The ride consists of what Chance describes as “a three-dimensional rocking, rolling and rotating motion” as two-person bucket seats flip around freely, while attached to a main wheel with an electric, variable speed drive (holding 18 twin-seats), that varies in angle hydraulically.
The ride is very well presented with a good colour and light scheme. Unlike the Zipper, the seats are totally restrictive on body movement with an ‘over-the-shoulder’ restrain system.
Upholding Chance’s reputation for easy portability, the complete ride racks up on a single trailer.
I work a Chaos at my job so if you like I can provide a photo of the controls etc.

This ride was fun. I know they took one out of Hershey Park, but I believe Cedar Point has one. Pretty cool Chance ride.

This is a pretty fun ride. I work at Valleyfair Amusement Park in MN and we have one there. Also I believe Cedar Point’s is for sale

The rides where mechanical nightmares with numerous incidents and were too costly to maintain.

We had one for 10 years, was a trailer mount, but in a permanent location. I had great comments on the ride, but between the updates and frequent parts replacements, and that quite a few were being pulled out of service, we opted to do the same. Replaced it with a Moser Flipping Action Arm.

I rode this ride when it first debuted many years ago. It was a lot of fun and unique. Few years ago I rode it again. It aged a lot. Due to the age it wasn’t as smooth. It didn’t spin as fast either.
This ride is more fun at night as the many lights on the ride provide eye candy.

“Mayhem” seems Like a better name for this ride, and if you’re fan of “Thrillville: Off the Rails ” you’d know exactly what I mean. :)

everybody talks about ride
s work ,but nobody talks about "chances ride accident in 2001″… Ride collapses at Michigan’s Adventure; 31 injured (7/30/01)ridesaccidents... - October 5th, 2011 at 11:00 am
As Red and many others pointed out, The Chaos was a mechanics nightmare. We had one for about 3 years and traded it in for the Chance Inverter. I think we spent more money on its maintenance than it actually made.

Oliver Liell - December 4th, 2011 at 10:53 am
i saw it once in my country(costa rica) and it was very scary for my taste at that time, i was just 10 years old, but i got a crush on it, so i’d said next year i will ride it on, but unfortunately didn’t show up, such a pity, and since that year(1996) never come back again, i ‘ve been waiting for it, but never came, and now it’s worse cuz i cannot ride any funfair, anymore or i get really sick, for my positional vertigo problem, well it’s such a pleasure to share my history with you guys ciaooooooo, y saludos desde costa rica
