Finnish active play company Valo Motion will showcase its two newest attractions to visitors for the first time at IAAPA Expo 2026. The company will show off Groundfall and ValoBoard to US operators for the first time. Groundfall is a floor-is-lava attraction that runs without staff and has no floor sensors or LED tiles. The two-player attraction puts riders into fantasy board sports games and is already live at three pilot venues in Finland, Germany and Spain. Sessions last between two and a half and three minutes for four to 10 players, and the largest configuration can accommodate up to 200 players an hour at full capacity. ValoBoard is Valo Motion’s first attraction to feature a physical controller. Riders steer, aim and dodge by shifting their weight on a tilt board, with full-body tracking putting them inside the game.

 

It launches with three games for ages six and up. Sunset Skaters is a fast-skating run through three lanes, Trickpunk Snowboarding lets each rider choose their own way down the mountain and Spinblades is a head-to-head battle for two players on a floating platform. “We launched two new products this year because operators asked us for two different things: a group attraction that fits into space they already have, and a compact attraction for teens and young adults,” said Dr Raine Kajastila, CEO and founder of Valo Motion. “Groundfall answers the first, ValoBoard the second. Both run without an attendant and fit into a few hundred square feet, so operators can add revenue without adding staff or floor space.”
