thrillrider Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Does anybody know if you still have to register for coastermania if you are a platinum pass holder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gci2011 Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 ^I went last year as a Platinum Passholder, and all we had to do was register at the gate when we got there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geauga Dog Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 I thought the bird crap all over the ride was CP's attempt at theming Raptor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterfreak101 Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 If we won't be there until Friday night after ERT, can we still register Saturday morning at 5am? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPmaverick Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 ^Yes, just make sure you go to the main entrance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonlocke Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 This will be my first year going to Coastermania but I have a question. I will be staying a Breakers but the registration is at 9:00am at ticket booths 12 and 13 at the front of the park. How long is registration open for should I drive around the park first thing or do I have enough time to walk threw the park. Also if I register on friday do I have to register on Saturday.

coasterbill Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 Looks like Windseeker is topped out now and work has begun on the queue line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prettyslr Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Hello! My name is Sayaka, & I have booked a room at Hotel Breakers for 3 nights @ this event (June 2-5) for me and my boyfriend. The room supposedly has 2 double beds in it - It was the cheapest one I could find - & We only need 1 bed for ourselves. Would anybody be interested in rooming with a couple of strangers? (I abso-bloody-lutely promise we are not axe wielding murderers!) The room for us cost $548.14 (including taxes and 2, 2 day adult tix ), and if you pay us $204.61 your more than welcome to stay with us. Or, if your brave and your single, it's only $102.30 per person. Of course you will have to purchase your own admission tix. This price is for all 3 nights of just hotel. I am not trying any funny business except to save some monies and make some friends. I swear I've checked and rechecked the math, but If you think it's wrong or want to negotiate somehow, I am open to any suggestions. I am also very interested in carpooling (gas prices are going way to high!) We will be coming from the Chicagoland area, so we have quite a few hours of driving to do. Out car has a something like a 10 gallon tank, and last time I went it took a little less than 1 tank of gas to get there. So, hotel and/or transportation and friendship for a small fee, anyone?

FeelTheFORCE Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 New blog entry regarding Ocean Motion's new location: I have to be perfectly honest. For many years, I never knew where Ocean Motion was located. Tucked into the corner of the park by the beach gate, it was practically hidden! You could say I “discovered” the ride the year Wicked Twister opened, when extra attention was drawn to that section of the park. I've ridden it every year since. You know I love my roller coasters, but I always enjoy a good swinging ship! I think it is a true amusement park staple, which is why I was thrilled to hear Ocean Motion is getting a new location this season! With the addition of WindSeeker, Ocean Motion has been uprooted from its original beachside location and is moving front and center. Ocean Motion will be one of the first rides guests see as they walk through the main gate, and we wanted to spruce up the ride. Our Planning and Design department was kind enough to let me share a sneak peak of the plans! Most of the ride has been constructed, and crews are busy working on the pool, queue and ride entrance areas. Hope to see you riding this summer! http://www.cedarpoint.com/public/fun/blog/2011/4/21/Ocean_Motion_Commotion.cfm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yamez Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 I think that's going to look really nice actually. Much more family friendly entrance than with Demon Drop right there! (Nothing against the ride mind you.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgroodog Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 This just occurred to me. Having Ocean Motion moved to its new location and themed up will make Hurricane Hannah's seem a little less awkward... I am glad to see them refreshing an old ride like this rather than just plopping it down and calling it a day. Cant wait to see it all finished! Also, here are the LARGER images if you want a closer look. http://www.cedarpoint.com/_upload/blog//OM_ModelSign.jpg http://www.cedarpoint.com/_upload/blog//OM_ModelTop.jpg http://www.cedarpoint.com/_upload/blog//OM_ModelClose.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterlover420 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Yay! I'm so glad to see omo gettin some love! This is gonna make the front of the park look a lot better, that's for sure. And maybe it will get more riders! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie200330 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 You know, the Pirat/swinging ship rides make more sense when there is water available to give it that feel of being on the ocean. Props to CP for their "theme" working right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
braztaz Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 So, Google Earth has 3D models of TTD, Magnum, and Raptor. It's pretty cool that they did this, I thin you need "3D Buildings" checked off to view them though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeelTheFORCE Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Has anyone ever gone during student ID weekend? Are the crowds that much heavier than normal? Weekdays are out of the question, but I'm trying to find a time that would be bearable, crowd-wise, and May 22 seems like the best choice before Memorial Weekend. Thanks.

coasterlover420 Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 ^I think any time in May is a good time to be at CP. I'd say from May to October, the crowds only get progressively worse, so the earlier the better. Even Memorial Day can't beat a regular weekend in July.

FeelTheFORCE Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Yeah, that's what I figured. I've gone on a Sunday in early June before and it wasn't bad at all, I was just concerned about the Student ID promotion, but it should be okay. I'll even use it myself! Thanks.

PhantomNick Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 Cedar Point's Windseeker, just like its sister at KI, has been delayed: Windseeker Opening Delayed Not too surprising, as I'm thinking we all thought this was likely after KI's got delayed. At least they can't go and blame Intamin for this delay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 ^I'm sure someone will try!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepoint4life23 Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 There was a really bad winter this year. but still they should no. they are on a lake and have been open for a few years. And what are the laws for testing, how long does the ride have to be tested for before the state let it open? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skycoastin Steve Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 The insane (and unusual) amount of rain that Ohio has gotten in the last month or so is to blame for the delay. And that's the long and the short of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrillrider Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 I am having a hard time believing that it was "entirerly" weather related. I base this on all of them being delayed. What are the odds? I think it may be a manufacturer problem with the ride. It is a new type of ride for mondial(sp). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skycoastin Steve Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 ^Considering none of them have reached the testing phase, I would guess it's all construction related, which has been delayed by the weather. If I'm not mistaken, paperwork and red tape were the culprits for the delay at KBF. I have no idea about the one at CW. People need to realize that construction delays happen. It's nothing unusual in any other construction project. Besides, a week or two won't kill anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
