Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread

Here's a set of pics that Cedar Point sent us (yes, I know a few of them were on the previous page, but here they all are in one place...)

Damn, this will be one the best looking B&M coasters. I love the white supports on it (and the blue as well).

[RoCo]

Wow, that view at the top of the lift, with the track just curling around and dropping, that is awesome!

[CpBluestreakCp]

Looks great! It seems like they are waiting for shipment of the keyholes until further construction, though. I can't wait to see those go up, that will be impressive.

[LazyFriday]

This looks good. On another sight somebody said looking at that last pic they feel Space Spiral could have stayed but if you add the fact that pic was taking before station work started and how huge that station looks that would have been one cramped area...and I am NOT trying to start a Space Spiral stay or go debate.

There you are, everyone on Facebook, Top Thrill Dragster still exists.

^People on Facebook didn't think TTD existed anymore?!

[Randomman295]

Wow,that looks amazing. I can't wait to see what the back to back Zero-G rolls look like. How soon do you think they'll go up?

[PKI Jizzman]

I'm hoping it will be just as good as it looks! Can't wait for May.

LOL, wtf? Why did people think it was gone?

[rcjp]

It just looks stunning. I particularly love the way the track colors combine with the landscape.

Lets see if this ride will be as good as it looks.

[booink]

Wow ! That's amazing ! I must go to Cedar Point someday...

[stashua123]

Gatekeeper looks awesome. *Tries to convince parents to go on a first time trip to cedar point*

A small selection of comments in regards to this photo...

Where is the dragster

I though they were gonna tear the wind seeker down not the dragster

 

I know that this may be better off in one of the "GP" threads, but I digress.

[Simipour'sTrainer]

^ That photo proves how absolutely amazing Gatekeeper looks amongst the Cedar Point skyline. It looks incredible!

[CPmillenia94]

I find it interesting how all of the wing rider drops seem to have slightly different shaping. Gatekeepers certainly looks the most fluid of any so far.

What the Heck it the blue and orange thing in the background? O_o

It's the Ferris Wheel.

What a lovely view of the parking lot from up there!

 

I think I mentioned this before, and it's a bit nitpicky, but I really wish they would have had the lift hill face the park instead of the parkin lot. Seems like it would have been easy enough to have the same layout with a vertical loop instead of the Immelman, and the views of the park and the lake would have been fantastic from the top of the lift.

 

Off my mini soapbox, this thing still looks fantastic and my fingers are crossed that this design fully utilizes the potential of the winged trains and turns out to be great.

[talonec]

Wow, that first drop pic! I love the first drop on X-Flight so this will be even more exciting.

My god people are stupid.

 

 

 

 

 

nice pics. Thanks for sharing Robb.

[alilstronger]

This coaster is giving even more reason to finally get to this park!!!!

[RaptorBoyASU]

I'm planning on hitting CP at least 2x next season thanks to GateKeeper

[Erik Johnson]

I hope to be experiencing this one in June. Looks good so far.
