Doug Barnes and Brent Young are at IAAPA 2014 and sit down with the CEO of Dynamic Attractions, Guy Nelson. Dynamic Attractions develops ride systems, structures, roller coaster track, and technologies for the theme park industry, and if you’ve been to a Disney Park or Universal Studios park, there’s a good chance you’ve been on one of their amazing creations. Guy’s story is quite ambitious, jumping into themed entertainment quite recently and has evolved a determination to improve the industry as well as the progression of energetic theme park machinery. A perfect example of this is there newest and most astonishing achievement, the SFX Coaster. If you want to hear where the future of high tech attractions and immersive storytelling transportation is going, then you should take a listen. Enjoy!
We dedicate this episode to our good friends Paul and James. God Bless.
