Booster (Fabbri ride)

Booster (Fabbri ride)

Booster is an amusement park ride made by Fabbri. It is a pendulum ride, similar to the later Speed by KMG (which, due to its similarity to the Fabbri ride is often referred to as the "KMG Booster"). Neither of these rides is remotely similar to HUSS Booster.
