Liberti, founder and CEO at Fun Crew USA, earned the certification to expand his knowledge about safety in the entertainment rental industry.
ORLANDO, Fla., Jan. 26, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Tony Liberti, founder and CEO at Orlando-based Fun Crew USA, has earned Level 1 ride inspector certification from NAARSO (National Association of Amusement Ride Safety Officials). The NAARSO ride inspector certification signifies that a person has achieved a high level of knowledge and skills about amusement ride operations and mechanics.
Information covered in the certification process ranges from the history of amusement rides to the cutting-edge technology used today. Earning the certification requires understanding issues such as mechanical force, tensile strength of bolts, electrical connections, electrical grounding, safety restraints, blocking, ride signage and more.
"Studying to earn the NAARSO ride inspector certification was difficult but worth every minute, " said Liberti, who has overseen Fun Crew USA for more than two decades. "I think what we offer at Fun Crew USA – the chance for people to relax and have fun – is needed now more than ever. I want to provide that to people in the best way possible, and that includes not only providing great entertainment rentals, but also ensuring safety."

Formed in 1987 by a group consisting mostly of state amusement ride inspectors, NAARSO awarded 4,355 certifications since its creation. NAARSO focuses on educating professionals in the entertainment rental and amusement park industries on the latest, best practices for ride safety.
Liberti said the organization has had a strong influence on the industry, which he has worked in since the mid-1990s. He said that earning the certification, in addition to adding to his knowledge on ride safety, also allows him to meet new criteria in Florida expected in the coming years for operating entertainment rental companies.
Liberti said he plans to continue his education on the latest ride safety technology through NAARSO and hopes to achieve a position of influence in the industry.
