Bobbejaanland
____________________________________________________________________________________________
Breakdance was a classic breakdance ride in Bobbejaanland. It was opened in 1987 and constructed by Huss. It is a ride with a sad history, since it was used in a transfer for the new Thrillenium ride. Together with Rainbow and Draaiend huis in 2001. But the company went bankrupt, and the Thrillenium ride couldn't be built. As a pity Bobbejaanland also lost their rides Rainbow and Draaiend huis due the transfer. But Breakdance still could be saved, and returned back in the park in 2002. Then the ride was in opration during 2007.
Breakdance was firstly located near Revolution and Condor, but after a few years it received a place by the loopingstar, between the Troika and Trapeze tower. When the troika was removed, Breakdance moved for the last time to the spot of the Troika. The ride had a western background painting. The cars were painted in different colors troughout the years, and also the cowboy changed his color once. It is sold to a new owner who uses the ride nowadays on fairs.
