Randomman295 Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 ^Love that last shot. I guess I ended up liking the futuristic look of the keyholes after all. When can we expect a video? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CpBluestreakCp Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 ^Tony said he is in the process of making a video now so very soon! But GateKeeper is just looking beautiful! Love the shot of it through the giant flat spin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
traincrossin Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 That great thing about Gatekeeper is that it'll be a fun coaster to ride, but also an impressive one to just look at, especially with those keyholes over the entrance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrillerman1 Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Wait...are we sure this is in America? GK looks incredibly European, but I'm not exactly sure why. I think it might be because it reminds me of a very progressive piece of modern architecture in addition to being a coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
necoastergp Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 This coaster looks great and very graceful in the pictures. Can't wait to see a video/pov of this in action. Watching this train fly around the track with the Lake Erie backdrop will be a sight to see in person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
australianalex Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Awesome! Still don't get why people are hating on the entrance. I think it looks awesome, especially with Gatekeeper's zero G roll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Fire Guy Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 I'm loving those last two photos. Gatekeeper looks very photogenic, definitely a "work of coaster art"! Looking forward to seeing some testing footage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azza29 Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Those keyholes look stunning - in the light it's almost like they're shining silver. This is going to be such an iconic coaster! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MylesG4L Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 amazing ! the 4th and last pic looks animated as if it was from the video. but beautiful B&M over all. I wish they did one for MM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJnCFL Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Simply amazing! It looks as if it's about to jump off the tracks and fly into the sky! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calaway Park Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 This ride is absolutely gorgeous. I'm very envious of anybody on the midwest trip! I wish I could go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcjp Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 I've just noticed that on the third picture there was some sort of bird standing on the track that flew away when the train came. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MillenniumCP Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 I can't wait to marathon the front gate. It will be picture/video heaven for photographers. As long as the weather is good! Ride On! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firewalk13 Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 It's stunning! I can't wait to see it soar above the entrance way when i'm standing right there, let alone ride it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palmerleeberry Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 All I can say that with the new addition of Gatekeeper that it should reduce the time I have to wait to ride the other coasters in Cedar Point because everybody is going to be in line to ride Gatekeeper ( Of course, that is the theory, but I do remember when Top Thrill Dragster opened up I thought the line to the Millennium Force would lighten up, but it didn't). I rode X-flight in Six Flags Great America and thought the ride was exciting and real smooth, so I'm sure that Gatekeeper will top that ( it already tops X-flight by have two keyhole inversions) and keep Cedar Point as America's Roller Coast!!! RIDE ON!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWAddington Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Not sure on the shorter lines at the other popular coasters because of GK, but GK will always have more people in line than Disaster Transport, Wildcat, and Space Spiral had in line combined, plus! So maybe that will help the other lines some! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bane Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 It looks fantastic, and I have no doubt it'll end up being better than The Swarm at Thorpe Park which is a pretty average coaster. I have yet to get over to America at all, but I really need to get it sorted and organise a trip to Cedar Point, there's just so many of their coasters that really appeal to me.

So maybe that will help the other lines some! Will have, Gatekeeper already has more people in line that Disaster Transport, Wildcat, and Space Spiral How long does the park keep the lights on at night once the park is open?

Aceattack52 Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 It will never look that new again. I also thought that the two halves of the keyholes would be touching, they have a large gap between them now; what's going on with that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
booink Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 The pictures are awesome and some of them looks exactly like the promotionnal rendering ! However, the keyholes would have been much better without the disapointing gap (even if it has a great effect on the entrance). I guess nothing can be perfect, altough Gatekeeper is close to it !

Wes Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 It will never look that new again. I also thought that the two halves of the keyholes would be touching, they have a large gap between them now; what's going on with that? It's apparently a maintenance thing.
