    NOT A TEACHER.

    None of those sentences are correct.

    "Since that day he hasn't been on that kind of ride/those kinds of rides anymore" is a possibility. I'm not sure what kind of rides you're talking about.

    Using ride as a verb and noun together makes them all a bit clumsy. As an aternative to Jasmine's version, you could also use He hasn't taken that kind of ride, etc.
