Calypso was a Calypso ride in Attractiepark slagharen. It was an outdoor ride with small roofs. The ride is about turning around an spinning. A real family ride that is not too intense. The ride was located near the old Autoscooter, and was a popular ride. When it was getting old it was replaced by a new, selfbuilt Calypso named Rodeo Rider. This one also has been removed.
The ride also had a location near the bumperboat ride Botsboten Bassin. It changed from locations during the years, and also it's style has changed slightly. The old location it was pretty simple without theming. Later it did get new paintings, and some theming was added in the form of lights, and paintings on the floor.
