Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread

Thanks for the update. It seems likely to me that they are going to build a new marina entrance alongside the coaster as well.

[Password121]

I really hope they don't advertise the marina entrance. I'm sure it will always be much quieter than the main entrance, but it's really nice to get a jump start with early entry with a shorter line to enter and have the chance to chat with some regulars/enthusiasts.

Great TR. And it's dizzying, looking at all those directional signs

on the fence, with all that information under each pic!

 

I would need a rest stop, just after going by this fence!

 

EDIT to add: Self-serve beer rawks!!!

^ Thrillrider: Nice mini TR. The wolf on the shirt is for Rougarou which is a werewolf.

 

Can someone explain how to reply quote someone's post while including a single picture of theirs in my reply? Example: I'd like to use the Rougarou wolf shirt from the post I'm replying to instead of just typing. I feel stupid.

Nice to see GateKeeper back working. Also so much track. Only a few more days till the announcement. Can't wait for a chance to see the first Dive Coaster I will ever ride.

Same about me for the dive coaster!

Still dumbfounded why they went with orange if it's Valravn. Wouldn't Purple and black (with possible hints of navy blue) fit better with the name/theme?

I think CP wanted to keep their skyline bright. I for one would love to see a black or grey or purple track. But If you look across the skyline, it is all bright colors; reds, blues, greens, and oranges.

Everything from the track color to what type of light bulb the station lights use is carefully thought out and planned over many months. So we should all just trust and believe that it was the best possible choice. They've given us the likes of Maverick, Dragster, Millennium Force, Magnum, and Raptor. They know what they're doing with their colors.

Anyone else watching the webcam like me? Lots of trucks driving around.

 

Also wanted to ask how is CP on Halloween day/weekend? I was thinking it might not be too bad as most people will be trick or treating or going to parties? Or is that a pretty crazy weekend? Debating if we should make a trip out or just stick to SFGAm.

I still think it looks more golden brown than orange. Also, I really like the colors!

It looks like some digging is being done for a footer.

Guess that one comes pre-curved?

 

In all seriousness though, good to see construction has started I'm really exited for tomorrow will jump right on my laptop after work.

[madsencarson]

Iphones are overrated, but I'm super excited for the Valravn announcement.

[grsupercity]

i sell cars for a living. Iphones dont work with a lot of new car functions. New cars with built in Siri is neat though. I am a lot more excited for Valravn then an apple product

[TB305]

I'm really excited to see the POV/Teaser, so I can visualize the coaster better than a sloppy NL2 recreation! I'm also really excited to see the VR app in action, I'm going to order a Google Cardboard headset just for the VR Valravn!

[Geauga Dog]

Though the internet has basically ruined the excitement of any new attraction I also can't wait for tomorrow and see how Valravn is going to fit in that spot.

 

The color of the track is a bit darker from the rest of the coasters in the skyline except Millennium Force so it will be a nice change from the usual reds and yellows CP is known for.

[madmax]

I don't care about the latest overpriced garbage CrApple is producing. All I want to see is what CP has in store for 2016!

[DoinItForTheFame]

Can't wait for tomorrow!! I can't wait to see how the coaster is going to fit into the place where it is going. I can't wait to see the official layout... I'm still hanging on to the hopes that the "leaked" layouts may not be 100% correct!

[sal123]

Does anyone know what time the announcement is going to be ??????

[Geartooth90]

^9:00 am eastern time.

[CP Maverick]

So the Cedar Point VR app is currently available for iPhone on the App Store, but is still hidden on the Android Play Store.
