Motion simulation amusement park attraction

A rider support assembly, comprising:

• one or more rider support units, each rider support unit of the one or more rider support units comprising:
• a moveable base having a first end, a second end, and a surface extending between the first end and the second end, wherein the moveable base is configured to support and position a rider substantially horizontally in a facedown position;
• a restraint system comprising:
• a torso restraint comprising a rotating restraint extending from the moveable base and configured to move relative to the surface from an unrestrained configuration to a restrained configuration;
• a leg restraint positioned adjacent to the second end and comprising a fixed member and a moveable member spaced apart from the fixed member, wherein the moveable member is configured to move relative to the fixed member to move the leg restraint from an unrestrained configuration to a restrained configuration;
• and
• a cross-frame coupled to the moveable base, wherein the moveable base is coupled to and configured to rotate within the cross-frame to move the moveable base from a substantially vertical position to a substantially horizontal position.

A motion simulator ride assembly comprising:

• a rider support assembly comprising a plurality of rider support units, each rider support unit of the plurality of rider support units comprising:
• a moveable base having a surface configured to abut a rider, wherein the moveable base is configured to rotate about an axis of the rider support assembly from a substantially vertical loading configuration to a ride configuration in which the rider is positioned substantially horizontally in a facedown position, and
• a restraint system configured to secure the rider onto the rider support unit, wherein the restraint system comprises:
• a torso restraint comprising a rotating restraint;
• and
• a leg restraint comprising a first member and a second member, and wherein the rotating restraint and the second member are configured to move relative to the surface to transition the rotating restraint and the second member from an unrestrained configuration in the substantially vertical loading configuration to a restrained configuration in the ride configuration;
• and
• a display screen configured to project a simulated environment wherein the display screen comprises a virtual reality (VR) display screen coupled to the rider support assembly.
