Cedar Point rundown journal of pain and joy.
7 years ago
I love Cedar Point, first off, and there is nothing like it. Even though sadly they tear down stuff I like to make way for new stuff its exciting. But one thing never changes there, the awsome coasters. I was able to ride all but 2 this time around and have no regrets. Sooo... without further ado... let's rank them!
1. Raptor. The classic that never dissapoints.
2. Gatekeeper. My new no. 2 it looks worse than it is, love it.
3. Rugaru aka The Mantis. Lovely classic that loves to twirl you around.
4. Gemini. Great for the inexperienced. Fun little racing coaster.
5. The Blue Streak. The oldest, and now ONLY, wooden coaster. With that said enjoy that bumpy ride.
6. Valraven. The 90 degree drop looks worse than it is. It's smooth as butter.
7. MAGNUM. Super fast super bumpy, a mandatory ride!
8. Maverick. Pretty intense and has a 95 degree drop at high speeds. This is a fub whiplash ride for experienced riders.
9. Iron Dragon. Nothing complicated or fast about this one but still good fun.
10. The Corkscrew. This ride is over 40 years old and was once a top 5 for me but, I have a feeling it's years are numbered :/
11. Cedar Creek Mine ride. A low position bc it's not too thrilling or fast... but still likeable!
12. Wicked Twister. It's fast. It goes up and down and back and forth up to 90 degrees. Not really a fan.
13. STEEL VENGEANCE (formerly the Mean Streak) ABSOLUTELY TERRIFYING!! Re - tracked in the spirit of The Mean Streak and I hate it. It's lost its soul yet most of the bones are still there. What makes it a good/terrifying coaster ob it's own are the inversions and excessive airtime while the train flies through the structure. Oh and aso it is mandatory you lock up EVERYTHING you own before getting in line.
Not reviewed: Millennium Force (down for maintenance all day) and Top Thrill Dragster (closed most of day and had a 2 hour wait when it opened)
*note*the Woodstock Express is a kiddie coaster which brings the total to 16 effing roller coasters!!
In the end, if you don't have a blast at Cedar Point; you were doing it wong. I have no regrets seating out half my bodily fluids, a blister the size of a nickle, scratchy voice, or sunburn! 10/10 would go back.
