A new 35-meter Drop Tower now stands at Morskaya Alleya, Gelendzhik’s popular beachfront on Russia’s Black Sea coast — instantly becoming a landmark attraction. For the Russian customer, it marks a bold leap: from indoor play zones to a thrilling outdoor ride. Here’s how Beston Rides made it happen.

The Challenge: Standing Up to the Black Sea’s Salt Air

Our client used to operate indoor amusement projects, and was now looking to expand into large-scale outdoor rides. Their chosen location was Morskaya Alleya, a popular beachfront entertainment zone in Gelendzhik. However, the Black Sea’s salt spray and high humidity put real demands on any outdoor ride equipment.

Customized Corrosion Protection for the Black Sea

To withstand Gelendzhik’s harsh coastal atmosphere, Beston Rides equipped the 35m drop tower with a customized anti-corrosion and waterproofing system:

Stainless Steel Fencing Resisting Black Sea Salt Air Corrosion

Stainless Steel Fencing

The safety fencing was upgraded to stainless steel to resist oxidation from sea air exposure.

Marine-Grade Fluorocarbon Coatings

All structural components were sealed with specialized marine-grade fluorocarbon paint to block salt-air corrosion.

Fully Sealed LED Lighting Glowing Through Humid Coastal Nights

Fully Sealed LED Lighting

Every joint in the lighting system uses complete glue-injection sealing, guaranteeing reliable performance in humid, salt-laden air.

Deep Hot-Dip Galvanization

Load-bearing joints, key structural parts, and platform components underwent deep hot-dip galvanization.
