coasterbill Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 Jesus dude, that's got to be a 6:30 AM to 1 AM shift. You're literally the only person that would do that and actually be legitimately happy about it
bluestreak Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 Josh, Daniel, Marcel and countless other TPR members that have worked at Cedar Point all deserve props and kudos to pass along to all the other awesome ride op's at CP. You guys and gals do a fantastic job to make the experience even more enjoyable than the world class round-up of kick-ass rides and coasters - FOR REAL! Thank you so much! We all love working for the park. It's literally the best job I've ever had! For those attending Coastermanaia I'll be working Valravn for the morning ERT through 8PM then I'll be making a guest appearance working Top Thrill Dragster for the 10:30pm-12:30am ERT! Thank you in advance for all you guys do!
JT325 Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 (edited) CP team members operate at a much higher standard than the *other* chain of parks. Edited June 3, 2017 by JT325
JRice92 Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 Jesus dude, that's got to be a 6:30 AM to 1 AM shift. You're literally the only person that would do that and actually be legitimately happy about it Our shift is 5:30AM-1:30AM, we're all so crazy here I believe there's 7 other people sharing that shift with me. Not necessarily the same rides but we're all working t both ERT's. Insane? Yes. Fun? Most definitely!
Geauga Dog Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 (edited) Bill, riding Valravn in the rain sounds much more appealing than when we rode it during Mayfly season. We knew we made a mistake when we pulled our harnesses down at night and discovered they were each peppered in dozens of Mayfly carcasses. I was nervous about the possibility of catching one in the eye. When I went to the park a few weeks ago my very first ride of the day was Valravn, front seat, far left side. As soon as we were released and began to drop a kamikaze mayfly smacked right into my glasses thus I had to deal with a black spot on my lens until I got to the brake run to wipe it off. This is the time of year you wish you had those big a$$ spiders in fall hanging around to eat these things. Edited June 1, 2017 by Geauga Dog
The Great Zo Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 Man, why isn't everyone talking about this place? Great little burger/taco shack on the water downtown. Nice view of a certain theme park. Nice view! Dockside Cafe!
Vonni Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 ^ OMG if I lived in Sandusky, I would eat there every day!
The Great Zo Posted June 2, 2017 Posted June 2, 2017 Oh here have a few more. TTD/RMC Flag at the top. Look how tall this is going to be. A big uphill.

I'll be there, can't wait to (hopefully) meet you for a moment, and get to see your handy work. I was hoping to knock off Valvravn, Gatekeeper and Rougarou fast as possible to spam MForce in the morning, and seems you'll be a big help Wait, the morning and night ERT??? You are a beast
chickenbowl Posted June 2, 2017 Posted June 2, 2017 If you look closely, you can see ledgers framing the drop... It looks to be 90 degrees, most likely the steepest drop on a coaster with a significant train length (not short eurofighter-like train)
johnnyknottsville Posted June 2, 2017 Posted June 2, 2017 So 200 + foot 90* degree drop into pure insanity if there were any doubts about Alan's sanity this should confirm it he's an effing mad man!!! And I'm in love lol
DoinItForTheFame Posted June 2, 2017 Posted June 2, 2017 Now, that's some wood I can't wait to go down on!!! It looks so amazing!! So far, I bet this coaster is going to end up a top 10 for 90% of us!!!

The Great Zo Posted June 2, 2017 Posted June 2, 2017 Happy Coastermania day everyone. Have a few more pictures. And I haven't even actually been in the park yet. Framed. A really good ride that everyone talks a lot about, and also Raptor. Corkscrew / Power Tower. OK, one more super-close-up of this crazy twisted whatever. Sunset on Sandusky Bay. Ferris wheel laser beam. Last time I was here, this thing wasn't. A couple decent roller coasters.
viking86 Posted June 2, 2017 Posted June 2, 2017 ^Love the first picture! As for the photos of the first drop on the previous page... Holy crap!!
JJLehto Posted June 2, 2017 Posted June 2, 2017 Hey all, I'm wearing aPink Floyd t shirt so if ya see me, feel free to say hi. At the gate and stoked
