Description
The Frog Hopper ride is a kid-friendly mini drop tower that delivers big thrills in a small package—perfect for school events, community festivals, birthday parties, and corporate family days. Designed especially for younger riders, the Frog Hopper can seat up to 7 passengers at a time.
Once the safety bar is lowered, riders are gently lifted 18 feet into the air before bouncing down in a series of fun, controlled drops. This exciting cycle repeats multiple times, bringing laughter, smiles, and just the right amount of adrenaline for kids. The bright, playful frog-themed design makes it a visual centerpiece at any event, and its compact footprint allows it to fit in a variety of spaces—both indoors (with sufficient ceiling clearance) and outdoors.
The Frog Hopper is safe, operator-controlled, and inspected before every event, ensuring parents can feel confident while kids have the time of their lives. It’s the perfect ride for entertaining children while giving them a “big kid” thrill in a size that’s just right.
Available for rental anywhere in Michigan, the Frog Hopper is a must-have for carnival-themed parties, school fun fairs, church picnics, and community festivals. Book today to bring this bounce-filled adventure to your next event!

Frequently Asked Questions about the Frog Hopper

Some adults may be too big to allow the lap bar to close. The maximum weight of the whole ride must not exceed 700 pounds of the ride will not operate.
How tall is the Frog Hopper?
The Frog Hopper has a tower that is 19 feet tall. With the decorative frog piece on the top, the whole ride stands 25 feet tall.
What does this ride do?

Each cycle downwards drops about 5 times, then the car raises back up to the top and drops them again about 5 times with bounces in between. We’d recommend watching the video for a full picture of how this ride operates.
With only 7 seats, how can it accomodate 140 riders per hour?
There are no individual seat belts for the Frog Hopper, instead there is one lap bar that goes down over all of the riders. Only have the one lap bar instead of 7 individual seat belts makes the unloading and loading process very quick and efficient. In addition to a speedy ride cycle, every ride cycle is about 1 minute long.
Can I supply power for the Frog Hopper?
The Frog Hopper takes 3 phase power which is generally not available with the exception of large convention halls (like DeVos Place in Grand Rapids). We provide generators that have 3 phase capabilities to power Frog Hopper and our other attractions that require three phase power.

The Frog Hopper is a very popular ride at events, especially with the little ones but teenagers like it too. It’s definitely an add on attraction, it would not be recommended as the first or second ride for your events lineup of attractions.
