The Cyber Cycle -
Midair Motorcycle Madness!
Towering fifty feet in the air stands the Cyber Cycle. During the show, John continually drives his motorcycle around the disk, keeping Tina in constant motion around the track as she performs on an aerial trapeze attached to the motorcycle by a ladder-like rigging. Beginning the show, Tina daringly performs a series of incredible death-defying stunts on the aerial trapeze. Next, she places a strap around her neck and lowers herself until she is held in mid air by nothing but the thin strap. John continues to race around the disk with Tina spinning by her neck as she circles the disk. Tina completes the last part of her act by spinning around the disk, hanging by her toes. Tina hangs suspended in air with nothing but her feet and balance to keep her from falling - no nets or safety devices. At the end of her routine, Tina asks the crowd to direct their attention to John as he revs his engine and races around the disk faster than ever. As his speed increases, the motorcycle comes completely off the base of the track and the sparks fly as he performs aerial flips from his motorcycle.

Galaxy Girl-
The Highest Sway Pole in the World!
Galaxy Girl has been called the newest extreme action superhero, and for obvious reasons! Galaxy Girl begins her act by climbing an eighty foot ladder high in the air before performing an incredible aerial gymnastic routine from a trapeze dangling eighty feet above the ground - with no safety nets or devices. Next, after asking the audience if they'd like her to climb higher, she begins her perilous climb to the 127-foot sway pole towering above the ground. As she arrives on the Aerial Space Platform atop the sway pole, the pole sways and bends drastically to near breaking, but Galaxy Girl retains her balance to perform a handstand on the very peak of the pole. To return to the earth's surface, Galaxy Girl gracefully slides down a cable in her "Slide for Life".

Winns' SkyCycle -
The Sky's the Limit!
The Winn's aerial SkyCycle can be seen high above the crowds at outdoor events and indoor arenas, featuring a motorcycle atop a steel cable with a trapeze dangling beneath it. As the show begins, John races the wire-climbing motorcycle high up the cable, where Tina and Ashley perform various gymnastic feats from the trapeze and John completes several death-defying stunts, including free-standing on top of the motorcycle. Next, John and Tina amaze the crowd by defying gravity and flipping the bike and trapeze numerous revolutions around the cable. The show ends with the motorcycle climbing to the very peak of the cable, where, following the audience's countdown, John completes and maintains a perilous mid-air handstand as the bike slides back down the cable.
