- In this vlog we visit Carowinds, an amusement park that features 14 roller coasters that opened back in 1973. Join us as we share our reviews from all of the coasters at the park as we enjoy one of the best days of our USA road trip! We share our thoughts on many different bucket list coasters including Fury 325 and the new for 2019 Copperhead Strike.
We also capture the fantastic atmosphere across the park and experience some absolutely outstanding operations and customer service on Fury 325. We had an absolutely awesome day at this Cedar Fair park and we look forward to visiting again in the future!

While I love Alex, Brett has been a great addition to these vlogs
Dan Staifer totally agree. He doesn’t just agree with Shawn and offers opinions; it’s good demographic
@@RS-dd2wi he is a straight man to Alex and Shawn's zaniness. It is a good balance.
Brett is awesome!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide tell Martin hello. 😁
I was thinking the same thing! I’ve always loved the chemistry between Alex and Shawn but Brett has been a perfect fit. I’m glad he stuck around and it was funny watching him set up the air mattress in the travel vlog.
TRIFECTA!
Cedar Fair destroys Six Flags. Their parks appear cleaner, and well maintained in comparison. Hope Alex is okay
Gotta love the brand new (used) SLC they installed at Michigan's Adventure, 11 years ago. Love hearing the host on the train still having to say it's MA's newest coaster. Yep, Cedar Fair is awesome to the smaller parks.
*Cedar Fair destroys it's smaller parks after acquiring them.... Fixed that for ya.
Ross Hudson Michigan’s adventure got a new 2020 coaster and new land! At least it’s something...
Agreed.
@@rossh688 nah, you cant look at great escape or St. Loius, and say that six flags takes better care of smaller parks.
“I’ve had more intense rides on the people mover.” -Alex Hahahahaha
CAROWINDS VS GILLERMO DEL TORO
6:40 that's such a cool shot! just fury and a plane side to side!
CAROWINDS VS UNIVERSAL COMCAST COMDEY
14:50 "oh I love sausage rolls!" that sounds like the most British song to ever be played at an American park😂
(I'm British and I really do love sausage rolls😅)
CAROWINDS PARREL WILLAMS
Me too
Something I've noticed in the last few vlogs -- Brett is a VERY WELL HYDRATED fellow!
I was at Portaventura a couple weeks ago and I must have drunk 4 litres a day trying to fight the heat. I paid a fortune in bottled water
Brett is awesome!
Carowinds is my home park! I’m glad you enjoyed. This park is Cedar Fair’s new favorite child and they’ve really turned this park around from it’s Paramount days. It’s actually the largest Cedar Fair park in terms of land at 407 acres. We used to have a flume ride where Cooperhead Strike is now and a rapids ride that closed this year for future development. There was also a monorail years ago when the park first opened but has been closed for a while.
We had a fantastic day here! Thanks for the information
You guys are really living the dream! Thanks for taking us along.
CAROWINDS BLUE RIDGE JUNCTION VS CHEESE FESTVAL
Who else hears the El Toro Ryan brake sound whenever they see trims on videos?
Omg carowinds is my favourite park. Cant wait to see your opinion on Fury 325
We had a fantastic day here, one of our favourites from the trip!
Take a drink everytime Shaun says "bucket list park"
You'll soon get drunk!
C R and “theming”! Lol love this Channel. It’s the channel that keeps giving
I've been taking a drink every time I hear "wonderful" now I want to go out out
Sam Which 😂😂 “theming” “bucket list park” “wonderful” be an amazing drinking game. Gotta love the channel
@@RS-dd2wi I wouldn't have it any other way! Absolute legends!
Do I need to watch a hour long video on a park I go to many times a year and know like the back of my hand? No. Am I going to? Yes.
Lmao I felt that
Looking forward to watch a new epic vlog for the next hour !
Great vlog! I completely understand Alex's experience on the Flying Dutchman. I handle almost all roller coasters very well until I rode Firehawk at Kings Island a few years back. By the time I got to the brake run, my head was spinning and my stomach was a mess. My head was messed up until I woke up the following morning. I think the warm weather plus the unpleasant restraints/seating position played a big part.
Another great vlog Shawn, Fury 325 does look awesome. I think a singing career awaits Alex, ha, maybe someone will see him on this vlog, and say......that's our man, ha, ha.
Hi shawn, Alex and Brett really enjoyed this vlog . Could see you guys enjoyed it very much . Felt bad for Alex glad he felt better later. I have loved you having Brett with you he is such a lovely guy . Loved the vlog thanks for sharing with us xxxx
Carowinds is our home park. We love the front row on Fury too, but there really is no bad seat. Copperhead strike is just what Carowinds has been needing. Great Coaster
Next we need an awesome GCI!
These vlogs just get better and better - What an incredible park - But the best part for me are the friendships and the memories that you’re all making between you - incredible adventures shared - can’t put a price on that! - Onwards! 👍👍👍👍
Thank you, we loved this one!
A great park for coaster fans. Sorry that Alex had a nasty experience but it was great to see him joining in again at the end. It’s always good to praise customer service as that can really make a difference to your park day. I’m liking the sound of the Cedar Fair parks based on your vlogs. Good to see you all smiling at the end of the day.
Glad you enjoyed it! I live only 25 minutes from Carowinds, it's a solid growing park
I've been to Greece for a week! Time to binge watch all of the uploads I missed from all of my favourite channels!

Shawn: THIS IS A BUCKETLIST PARK
Fury 325. Categorically my favourite colour scheme for a ride. Chartreuse (toxic variety) is my favourite colour, and the combination of that with turqoise is stunning. Incredible.
Great vlog! Poor Alex! Really loving this trip! ❤️
Awwww I love Carowinds! Fury 325 is amazing. Who thinks after burn is on of the most intense inverts
Just finished the vlog. I am so hapoy you loved the park. Fury is my 2nd favorite coaster and I just love it. The operations are the best in the chain and it was awesome to see you get the night re-ride. Glorious. We live in Buffalo, NY and we make the drive every other year to do Carowinds, Busch Gardens Williamsburg and Kings Dominion with 2 days at each. It's really an awesome coaster road trip. Cheers!
Great Vlog! Always good to see a park go that extra mile!
I'm so glad you had a pleasant experience with the staff at Carowinds after all the flim-flam at the Six Flags parks! Thanks for another fun vlog. 👏💜
God, this trip is hard work. I know when I've been on a few coasters, I'm knackered. Keep up the good work guys!
2 weeks ago, I was at Carowinds and thought I was going to find CS to be ok, at best. I got to ride it at the end of the night, 3 times in a row, and absolutely loved it...the POV's don't do this ride justice. It was one of my biggest surprises on the 22 day, 29 parks trip I was on...just an absolutely fantastic ride.
Fury 325 is literally my favorite coaster of all time behind Top Thrill Dragster! So fast and so much airtime!
Glad you guys enjoyed your day at my home park. Y'all come back now. Ya Hear!
So happy this vlog is out!
i had heard about this park, but never been FOR YOU 3 GUYS TO SAY HOW OUTSTANDING IT IS BLOWS ME AWAY! theme park worldwide shawn please never stop making you second to none videos!! i always go to youtube hoping to see another posted video by the king of theme park videos !! i can't wait for you're next video!! YOU ROCK BRO!!
Thank you for your kind words!
Looks like a good fun park with lots of the other attractions. Think it’s more a 2 day park to experience everything
I love Fury 325 it’s my favorite out of the 200 coasters I’ve ridden😀 I rode it 24 times in one day last month when I went to Carowinds
Of all the bucket list coasters including TTD and SV at Cedar point... Fury 325 is the one that will get me to book flights over to the US, I'm sure of it. It looks absolutely breathtaking. It looks like my dream Coaster.
Hope you can make it here some day :)
So glad y'all enjoyed your time at my home park and place of employment! Love working there and glad you shouted out the customer service! Next time you're back in the US let me know so I can join in the craziness!
Another great US road trip vlog. Looks like a great coaster park. What a marathon of a month you guys did
Thank you, we loved this!
Enjoyable day was had by all ! glad Alex survived the bang on the head . Thank's Lads ! ;-)
Been waiting so long for this!
We hope it was worth the wait!
Yes the one I've been waiting for! Awesome to see yall enjoy my homepark! It was awesome to share a ride on on Copperhead and chat with yall in Intimidator's line! Glad yall enjoyed the park. Hope to see you guys return one day!
We loved it!
CoastinCoasters Carowinds gang represent!
The Hurler review oh my god 😂💀 this vlog was amazing and I really hope to visit there someday, I’m living vicariously
Edit: having had the displeasure of experiencing a Vekoma Flying Dutchman many times, my condolences to Alex
ALSO ALEX SINGING TO THE TUNE OF STARLIGHT EXPRESS IS A ABSOLUTE MOOOOOOD!
Cedar Fair staff are always super friendly
I haven’t watched you in like 6 months and oh boy you have got me back into roller coasters. I’m like a film critic now because I love films but I really want to ride a rollercoaster right now
I've noticed a pattern on this trip. Alex what did you think of that coaster? "Exactly everything shaun said!" 😂
I find Brett and I have the same preferences. No way would I say Copperhead Strike would be better than Fury. Apples & oranges, bay-bay.
Yeah he is such a nose wipe
@@alfredbell9880 I like Alex. He may share the same views, but he's eloquently spoken, which is nice.
Alex does have some very similar thoughts to me however there's still quite a few parks and rides where we share different opinions!
Yeah i like alex too. He adds alot to the vlogs. I just chuckle when he repeats basically what shaun just said. 😁
The Vortex logo was made back when these were Paramount parks 😉
Wrong, Vortex opened in 1992- a year before Paramount was operating Carowinds.
Amazing vlog and amazing park ❤️. Fury 325 is my bucket list number 1. I hope ride it soon. Thank you very much for share this videos 👌🏻
It sure is great! Thanks for watching!
Yes! I’m leaving Wednesday to go! Six hour trip with my two brothers, my friend, and my parents. So exited!
I had that with fury in Bobbejaanland. I was on the last train of the day and the operators sent the train out again. It was absolutely amazing!😁
That plane at 6:40!! Mad hahaha, and people say Thorpe can't build tall coasters 🤣
Glad y'all are having a fun, if steamy time. Park looks pretty. Off-ride shot suck the life outa me. They are a scourge upon these lands! Beyond that, I just wanted to mention that Dale Earnhardt was known as the 'intimidator'. The ride is themed for NASCAR.
Great vlog Shawn could see you enjoyed this park seem lot happy on this one. keep up with the great vlogs
Great to watch the Carowinds vlog and hear your thoughts on the rides. I wasn't able to make it that day unfortunately but glad you guys had a good time!
Vekoma actually fixed the Nighthawk situations with new restraints for the newer 2 Dutchmen rides and also the dual loading stations
Is it rough still?
God damn Vekoma living up their their name that Haxar coined on a trip, "Ve-Coma"! I used to slag these off something fierce on CF back in the day when Air was just opening! I love these videos because you live the life I onced dream of living myself! Back then there was no youtube - and any (CFTV) videos I made took people most of the day to download!! I was truly born at the wrong time! DF
I'm in the background at about 26:50 with my sister and her boyfriend. We didn't want to be rude and ask you who you were but we found out because of a post from coaster studios the next day. We were on a coaster road trip of our own
We hope you had a fantastic time!
I hope many croissants were consumed!
I grew up near there and have been visiting Carowinds from the mid 70s. The first roller coaster I ever rode was Thunder Road, an excellent wooden coaster they tore down a few years ago. My first loop coaster was White Lightning there which is also now gone. The place has changed so much , but still a great park.
I’m going for the first time in my life in August and I’m the most excited I’ve ever been in my life and I’ve been to Cedar Point!
Did you have a good time?
Great vlog, glad you enjoyed the park , shame about that locker situation, for the price they charge for admission, should be a simple day pass for all. Really enjoyed watching and learning about the park.
After the disappointment of Six flags operations so glad you had a much better time, Well done Carowinds , it really showed how much you all enjoyed the park, someone should send six flag a copy and make it mandatory to watch
Hey! That's ME! around minute 27. My boyfriend, brother and I were on a rollercoaster road trip. I was just reminiscing and remembered we ran into this situation. Trying to respectfully ignore the vlogger in front of us, as you do. We hit Canada's Wonderland, Dorney Park, King's Dominion, Carowinds, and King's Island over the course of 8 days before returning home to Michigan.
I wasn’t expecting much airtime when I first rode Fury 325, but I was surprised when I actually got some decent airtime on those last hills. Not extreme airtime like on RMCs or Hyper coasters, but it was still good. Fury 325 is one of my favorite roller coasters.
Another great Vlog from your USA 🇺🇸 Strata Trip Shawn.
Another great video! Two lap specials on a giga!?!? Unbelievable 😂.
It was epic!
YES THE ONE IV'E BEEN WAITING FOR !!!
We hope you enjoyed it!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide Oh I certainly did I enjoy all your vlogs :)
Glad the weather stayed nice for you. Plus great rollercoaster. Alex dor the voice lol.
Ha! Those "cheeks" were my first thought too Shaun on my first ride at the bottom of that drop - I'd just come off I305 and had those cheeks for a good 4-5 seconds on that first turn and rise up... but had no idea I'd get some of that on a B&M! You get intensity at the bottom of Millenium Force, but nothing like what you get on Fury 325 and I305. Incredible stuff.
Hi thank god u 3 have reached carowinds , through my own experience and thoughts you've all mastered the third best theme park in the USA I always think the 1st and 2nd best theme park is clashing between magic mountain and ceder point in the USA , love u all
xxxxxxxxx
We loved it here!
Wow I’ve got to visit this park. Looks outstanding!
wow that coaster that you lay down in, oh my gosh!! that is so wild, but i would have to take a polite pass if i ever went
Fury 325 looks absolutely fantastic!
Brakerun: The Ride. Definitely trademark that name Shawn!
Shawn!!!! Thank you so much for the birthday wish! It really made my heart melt so much😭Thank you for everything! ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!
24:00 WHAT THE HECK!!! I have been to Carowinds a dozen times before and I have never even heard of it being this busy! Even on Sundays the park has always been dead even the year Fury opened! That's some bad luck man
I think y'alls definition of "family coaster" and my definition vary greatly
Very cool video. Thanks for posting and have a nice day too.
That place looks amazing I love coasters
I love this park havent been here in a while. Rode fury when it opened.
Also 2 fun facts, 1. The Carolina cyclone was the first ride in the u s a to have four inversions and it held that record for 2 weeks. It was the first of its kind. 2. Before carowinds was owned by cedar fair it DID have a monorail but my dad said that the monorail got taken out when he was a little kid. Thanks for your time and enjoy your ride here at carowinds.😂
Thanks for the information!
Another awesome 👏 vlog Shawn
These theme parks play some awesome music in america!
Definitely have to go and ride fury 325 it looks amazing. They look like they've got some great rides here, especially copperhead strike which reminds me of Icon at Blackpool pleasure beach
Thanks for the cameo over by flying cobras lol... couldn't believe I got to ride fury with you all
Went to Alton Towers on monday and saw harry turnstiles on the turnstiles and mr lee wood on Wicker man what a great day it was
I love Alex for singing a made up on the spot song about that Mack ride to the tune of starlight express
Glad you enjoyed my home park. Carowinds is working on updating the two coasters you hated. I have heard some new water rides are in the parks future. Glad you like the Carolina Hospitality.
Thanks for the information!
coaster911 just out of curiosity where did you hear about new water rides?
i love it , great youtuber 💕💕 !
The Carolina Cyclone loops are amazing, I love it and it looks so family oriented but hides that little coat hanger g force moment. Really like Fury 325 but I have more fun riding Intimidator. Carowinds needs more family rides, dark rides or something other then just coasters and for me feels like a park plonked in a field. but it is a great day out. Poor Alex, I prefer Vekoma Flyers to B&M but I am a bit crazy.
i rode copperhead strike 10 times in a row because it was my first time going to carowinds and i had a fast pass, i loved it that much. it’s probably my favorite roller coaster i’ve ever been on but i haven’t been on many so that isn’t saying a lot.
Nice!!!! I'm glad you guys had a great experience at Carowinds. I agree 100% that Nighthawk and Hurler are not good rides at all. Wish they would remove Hurler and put in some sort of dark ride and remove Nighthawk and put in a "Lil Steel Vengeance ", I think that would be a great area for one. Hope to meet you guys in the future when you head back to the USA, Really enjoying watching your vlog and excited about seeing your reaction to Busch Gardens Williamsburg!!👊💪👍
Thanks for watching, we had an awesome day here!
Fury crew is the best, always bringing the A game. Keep it up Fury crew!
They were excellent!
Afterburn is my absolute favorite. It's not the best, but I've got such a history with it.
I love Carowinds. It's way better than six flags. We didn't get to ride all the rides though because it started raining. I'm going back for my 16th birthday. Omg I'm so excited!
yay more unknown parks (for me at least) :P
Copperhead looked amazing, and bonkers! (Those Mac rides looks so compact and weird from a distance). So many moments on such a smal footprint.
The park looked good as well, but yeah. It could need some more stuff. And get some covers over the cue lines!
We had a great day here!
Yeah, that was pretty obvious at the end of video summary :)
Good staff really elevate guests feelings of a happy time when visiting a park.
I could listen to the b&m roar for hours.
You deserve more subscribers dude, your amazing. So entertaining 🎢
Thanks for your support!
love your videos shawn 💕
Thank you!
It's too bad your east coast jaunt started at six flags and in Georgia of all places but this Carowinds vlog definitely makes up for it! Bring on Busch Gardens!! Great job, guys!
This park was excellent!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide It's on my "Go there, you fool!" list and this vlog has cemented its position.
