Attraction Types

Since LogRide’s conception, classifying attractions has proved to be a useful organization tool.

Although fans have various opinions on how attractions should be classified, the LogRide team has developed a series of standards to help keep our attraction listings consistent.

We’ve included parts of our standards below to help users understand LogRide’s classification process.

Roller Coasters

There are many definitions and opinions concerning what qualifies an attraction as a “roller coaster”. Although LogRide does not have a textbook-definition, please consult the following information when classifying.

Attractions with Roller Coaster Elements

The most common classification issue stems from attractions that contain roller coasters elements (i.e. sections of water rides, dark rides, etc.). All attractions should be classified according to the most substantial portion of the overall ride experience.

Although a water attraction might have elements of a roller coaster, unless the roller coaster elements contribute a substantial portion of the overall ride experience, the attraction should be classified as a water ride.
