Kiddie Rides USA

Utah State Patrol

This is a fun ride project we just finished for the Utah Highway Patrol. They’re going to use it in a drunk driving campaign. My understanding is it is going to sit in a bar and be available for the adult patrons to ride. The message will be something like, “drive drunk and you’ll be riding in a real patrol car”.

This is a fun project we just completed for the Vancouver Aquarium. They wanted a frog ride painted to look like a Northern Leopard frog. This is just another example of the customization work we do here everyday at KRUSA.

US Navy Test Pilot School (USNTPS) class 136 graduated on December 12th 2009 in Patuxent River Maryland. For their class gift they all pitched together with their own funds and purchased a fully functional jet plane kiddie ride from Kiddie Rides USA painted to look just like their training jets (see below). Each pilot even autographed the nose of the plane!

These are two custom kids hair salon chairs we made for Stylin Kidz Cutz in Springfield, MO. They have an underwater theme so we made salon chairs by mounting the fiberglass bodies off of two of our boat and marine themed kiddie rides on hydraulic lifts. They turned out spectacular!
