The Sizzler, unlike Eli Bridge’s cog-drive, uses hydraulic drives to rotate the cars. Many units of the Sizzler were also manufactured in Australia by Ferrari Manufacturing under licence. Similar versions of the original Eli Scrambler operated around Europe include A.R.M’s Twist (now Chance Morgan), Wisdom’s Sizzler of which approx 190 units have been manufactured since 1973. Put simply, Scramblers offer a great ride experience to people of all ages with a minimum of capital & ongoing expenditure for its owner. By the end of 1955, 16 units had been manufactured by Eli Bridge, with over 200 orders from waiting buyers! With this kind of demand, other manufacturers and showmen soon latched onto Eli’s success and developed their own versions such as the Gabrik Merry Mixer.Ĥ7 years later, it is almost impossible to visit a carnival or amusement park that fails to have a scrambler / twist / sizzler on its attraction list. The Eli Bridge company produced the first Scrambler in 1955 – an amazing success which took the amusement industry by storm.
Known in the USA as the Scrambler, UK as the Twist and Australia as the Cha Cha, the design remains a ‘must-have’ among park and carnival operators because of its timeless popularity and low-maintenance operation. Home > Intermediate rides > Scrambler Scrambler
