InterLink LG Ltd

To provide fun and entertainment through the provision of high quality, affordable attractions backed by superior customer service. The Interlink Group was founded in 1982 by John Hudd with the express purpose of designing and manufacturing a range of high quality, water based attractions for amusement, theme and water parks. With this philosophy in mind, the company has since developed a variety of water rides to suit a wide range of customer requirements, including those such as the Rapid River and Shoot-the-Chute attractions, while in addition to these it also offers a range of "dry" rides, from sedate scenic trains to thrilling roller coasters. But it is the principles behind this philosophy which make Interlink stand out. John Hudd's vision was, and remains, two-fold - to design and manufacture exciting and entertaining major attractions for all types and size of park while at the same time being able to adapt these to specific customer requirements and budgets. Many examples of how Interlink has successfully applied this ideology can be found in operation throughout the world and it is a way of thinking that has proved a winning formula time and time again in what is today an increasingly competitive marketplace.

HAFEMA Water Rides GmbH

The HAFEMA Water Rides GmbH has established an international reputation for offering high-quality water rides worldwide. You may find our Water Rides in over 20 amusement parks in Germany, Europe, the Middle East and the USA.

Our services include the sales and on-site installation of spectacular amusement rides. HAFEMA offers full service to its customers, from planning and the individual designing through mounting to maintenance and technical support.

Founded in 1990 the mechanical engineering company extended its product portfolio to cover attractive rides for amusement parks in 1992. In 2004 the HAFEMA GmbH concentrated fully on the business line of water rides. Since then electronic engineer Harald Wendling and hydraulic engineer Paul Sommer manage the GmbH located in Laudert with professional competence.

„German engineering“ is more than a mere phrase for HAFEMA. The words refer to the high quality standards, which we aim to meet. HAFEMA Water Rides can be found just about the world over - proving, that our mission statement is right on target.
HAFEMA offers a wide range of innovative and high-quality products.

We gladly install wild raft rides and several other "wet and wild" attractions for you! Your advantage: The rides will exactly fit the special needs of your amusement park.

Some of our bestsellers are: wild raft rides/rapid rides with round boats for nine passengers, mini raft rides with smaller round boats for four to six visitors and the HAFEMA splash rides with long boats.

In addition we construct flume rides, panorama rides/slow boat rides and combination rides/multi rides with special effects, which may be realized on an individual basis.

The patented HAFEMA conveyor system operates all our rides. A dry platform allows for easy and safe boarding and unboarding of the passengers.

Further fantastic effects may be integrated: geysers, fountains, waterfalls etc. The HAFEMA whirlpool promises the utmost thrill: It gives the passengers the feeling of being in a vortex.

We have created a unique new boat type - the flying boats. The three cockpits admit two persons each and are connected by a rubber tube. The result: Even more thrill for the passengers! Because the flying boats automatically adjust to the wave pattern of the ride.

Our custom designed multi rides offer a combination of the various HAFEMA features. For example we can equip the wild raft ride with lift, chute, whirlpool and flying boats.
