    First Drop Location Duration Rattle

    The best part, or the worst part, is the finale. That fast rush through the woods. Crazy laterals and incredible speed with the cold forest air in your face, if you're in the front. In the back, it's a rough as shit beatdown that slams you around. The rest of the ride has amazing drops in the back with awesome airtime, but in the front it's just okay. Wherever you sit you're trading something off. The front row ride is amazing for the finale alone, but the rest of the ride is just okay.

    Airtimes Pace Duration

    Thunderhead is a monster of a GCI. It's unpredictable, long, and has no breaks in pace or dead space. The terrain is used very well, the views of the rest of the park is great, the Millennium Flyers are incredibly comfy, and the ride is smooth, especially for its age. This is my favorite GCI and it beats out Mystic Timbers for its crazy twister layout.

    Intensity Layout

    Given what I had been told by locals and other enthusiasts, I expected Rougarou to be a painful, awful ride. Unsurprisingly, it was not, and was instead just another standard B&M looper. Given how many of these I have ridden at this point, nothing about Rougarou really stood out to me, but I think it fills an important spot in Cedar Point's lineup. It has good intensity and a lot of inversions, but besides that it wasn't anything special. 7.5/10 - I love stand-ups so I would have preferred to ride Mantis honestly

    Airtimes Nice surprise! Fun Rattle

    I always love a racing coaster, so I figured I would have a good time with Gemini. I was shocked that the ride was actually as good as it was. The airtime in the back was surprisingly strong, and pretty comparable to most seats on Magnum (with one obvious exception). Interaction with the other train is really where racing coasters get to shine, and Gemini excels with those iconic "high-five" moments. It might not be the smartest idea, but no one can resist doing it on those turnarounds. This ride is certainly worth your time, even at a park with as crazy of a coaster lineup as Cedar Point. 8/10 - those brakes hit the hardest of any ride I've been on

    Location Fun Dead spots

    Despite their relative lack of excitement and forces, I still kind of love these Arrow suspended coasters. Comparing Iron Dragon to Bat, the only other one I've been on, this one is definitely much less intense, but the actual swinging is much more pronounced, which I like. A ride over the water is also always a great thing. Overall, though, it's nothing too special. Regardless, Iron Dragon is still just a really fun time. 6/10 - this poor little guy really just had two other roller coasters unceremoniously plopped on top of it, huh

    Fun Masterpiece Harness

    What an incredible experience. Laughed the whole way through. So sad I only had time to ride once. I would go back to japan just to ride this again.

    What a ride. Must be near perfect. Especially the 2nd half. The stall is something else.

    Absolutely incredible insane ride. Amazing whip on the back rows.

    Nicely paced. Floater is insane. Not the most forceful though.
