History
KumbaK was founded in 2001 as KumbaK Coasters. The original mission was to provide completely new attractions to our clients. However, in 2009, the focus of the company was shifted from developing new roller coasters to providing specialized engineering services, the upgrading of older roller coasters, the reverse engineering of replacement parts and the development of safety products as main product lines. Since then we are known as KumbaK ‑ The Amusement Engineers.
