Cedar Point

 


Welcome to the Roller Coaster Capital of the World - Cedar Point

Super excited to be back

Gatekeeper was on early ride time today so we marathoned it

Wild Mouse was a new addition since our last visit.  Fun ride, but not a worthy replacement for Wicked Twister

I don't quite understand the addition of the Pavilion behind the wheel, but it does look nice

Windseeker

Maxair

Raptor was a fun ride, but is definitely showing its age

The park has one wooden rollercoaster - Blue Streak and still cannot maintain it properly.  Very rough

Valravn was a lot of fun.

Iron Dragon is still doing its thing.  Very fun coaster

New this season is Siren's Curse, the first tilt coaster in the States

Honestly the tilting looks more severe off the ride.  We really liked how far up in the air you are lifted if you sit near the back

Crazy smooth ride and the onboard audio is a great touch

Millennium Force still delivers even after 25 years of fun

SkyHawk is another great S&S extreme swing.  These rides are so much fun

Maverick proved to be a little too intense for us this trip.  We still enjoyed it for the most part, but definitely not one of our favorites at the park

Steel Vengeance proves that a longer RMC is not a better RMC.
The only thing this ride has is length as the pacing is horrible and repetive

We might have to retire riding this ride.  My legs barely folded enough to ride (I'm 6'4")

Gemini was only running the red side today.  This killed the only reason one would ride this ride

Magnum seems to have become even rougher than our last visit.  The pretzel helix had numerous potholes and then the thigh crusher on the way back was horrible

TT2! I will always miss the original launch, but dang this new version is fun

I mocked this back spike when it was first released - I take it back.  That hang time is so much fun

Here are the speeds of each of the launches.  I was very impressed with the efficiency of the ride.  As soon as the train was hitting the brake run the next was headed out to the launch area.

Corkscrew - proving that I am not as young as I used to be.  Ouch

I think Power Tower is proof that the S&S towers can be too tall, because I will take the forcefulness of the smaller ones like at Worlds of Fun or Holiday World any day over this

Rougarou.... yes it still exists.  Does anyone like this ride?

The main midway is so pretty

You know we had to ride the best carousel in the State.  Cedar Downs is awesome

After two days at the park - I think we got in enough rides on this amazing collection for awhile.  Cedar Point will always be the Coaster Capital
