Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread

P. 2017: Top Thrill Dragster RETIRED!?!?!?

Recommended Posts

I'm telling you - it's a pirate themed dark ride/coaster!

 

Seriously, this has been my underlying feeling about CP 2016 for a while now, with a new coaster coming 2017. I know somebody said earlier the Oiumet said no dark rides in 2016, but I've not seen that quote, personally. So, if somebody could produce it and post it here, that would be helpful. Of course, even if he DID say it, honestly, it's not like amusement park operators never "lie" about coming attractions, you know!

Looking for a little help here with tips for my first CP trip!

 

-Going to CP Friday Aug 28th, and Sat the 29th

-Staying in breakers express both nights to get early access

-Thinking about getting fast lane plus on saturday.... thoughts?

-For early entry is it through the main gate, or is there a side entrance?

-Does anyone have a link regarding how I should hit rides? I think I wanna try to wait to ride Maverick till later in the first day, as to not spoil myself too early

-Has anyone used the all day meal plan? It looks like it might be worth it

 

Thanks!

You can enter any gate for Early Entry. As far as waiting to ride Maverick, I always suggest riding Dragster (not open for Early entry), and Maverick quickly as they're not the most reliable rides in the world and I'd hate to see you miss out just because you were holding out to ride them later.

 

Cedar Point's maintenance team does a good job with them and I know you're there for 2 days but it's better to be safe than sorry. Also, Fastlane or not Early Entry is the time to ride Maverick as it gets ridiculous lines.

Please spoil yourself, the lines even with a fp+ can get up to 45 mins, especially on a Saturday and Friday I bet. Also 100% get the fastpass PLUS, because the extra $20 is worth it.

That screams of Valravn to me...

 

^I couldn't agree more. After seeing the banner, I am sold. It, whatever it is, will be Valravn.

 

See, I had quite the opposite response. There's nothing in Valravn folklore or legend about water, or lightning. On top of

that, the font for CP2016 looks distinctly "pirate-esque" to me. Couple that with pirates going along with darkness, and an open sea, and when I saw that I immediately thought it must not be the Valravn coaster. I see how the water could not matter regarding the theme (other than to represent CP being on a peninsula?), and the script could be medieval possibly too. But my initial reaction was that it looked more piratical, than mythological Danish beast...

 

Just to be clear - I'd prefer it to be Valravn, so hopefully you're right!
