Space Roller - June 15-04

I had to post this one.

When Mondial in Italy, built, some 6 years ago, the first Space Roller, i was checking all fancy fairs for it's first time to be seen at them. This is my favoured "toy". For me, no body shaker can be "rough" enough. This one is close to what i would call a real big experience.

Some advises if once you are interested for a trial. Take all out of your pockets first, never climb on one when drunk. The experience is what I would call "real hardcore".

And be prepared to be just anywhere, in any position your body can go to and allways ignoring, where, why and how.

Another shot of this "toy" is here : http://www.pbase.com/image/30198134

This is about the most terrible instrument I can imagine! Can't understand what makes somebody want to be treated like something in a washingmachine. I know my daughter likes it too. She can't explain why. But once she wanted to go in something similar, but less raw and I said no, because I had to go along. Then she kicked me in frustration. And, fool as I am I said OK, and is was just as terrible as I had thought. She learned that that's what you experience when you kick your daddy and get away with it..... Maybe too many women get away with kicking their father's butt?? ...The picture is good though- and really shows the terror painted in these people's faces?
