A layout that doesn't give up all the way to the final brake run. The first drop and non-inverting loop are the stars of the show. Plenty of variety in the layout with different kinds of forces.

A well themed and fun water coaster. The actual ride layout before the final drop isn't that exciting or interesting, but the drop is so well shaped that it makes up for it, and the airtime hill after the drop is great fun.

A hilariously fun and classic wooden wild mouse. Packed with surprising airtime moments and scary laterals, in a brilliant location next to the water and Sydney Harbour Bridge.

The layout is so poor, turns are way too wide and transitions way too slow. All the speed from the launch is completely underutilised. Jet Rescue at Sea World, built after this, got the formula for motorbike coasters right by tightening the corners and with it's whippy transitions.

Gatekeeper surprised me with how much I enjoyed it, so much that I went back in line for a second ride! Its beautiful setting at the front gate of Cedar Point — which I disappointingly never used in any of my two-day stay — and along the beach only improves what is a very good coaster on its own. My favorite moment has to be the dive drop, because hanging upside down for what felt like an eternity ended up as a great start to an enjoyable ride. While it may not have many G forces, there is a decent moment of air on the so-called “airtimeless hill” before the massive corkscrew. However, after this ride, I began to garner a loathing of the B&M vest restraints which I had not understood others’ hatred for — until I rode Gatekeeper. Overall, though, this is a really fun coaster and for me it is my #3 at Cedar Point; just behind Millennium Force and Maverick.

For a 50 year old coaster, Blue Streak gave some unexpectedly good airtime. I was out of my seat during most of the first half, just before the turnaround, which caught me off guard — as I had not anticipated any reminiscence of airtime or G-forces. Controversially, I would rank this as my 5th favorite coaster at Cedar Point, ahead of rides like Raptor, Rougarou and Magnum XL-200. Blue Streak packs a punch for its older age!
