Cedar Point OPENING DAY 2014
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 жов 2024
- Opening day at Cedar Point! New for 2014, Pipe Scream and Lake Erie Eagles, part of the newly refurbished Gemini midway -- even Monster got new lighting and paint. Jr. Gemini is now Wilderness Run, and Game Day Grille has been transformed into Chickie's & Pete's. Most of the changes can be seen here, but I still missed a few things. Filmed Saturday, May 10, 2014.

Again, your footage and the way you capture the coasters against the sun/sky is fantastic. It is great to see you back for another season Coaster Bob. I look forward to these openers every year. Always enjoyable, always fun.
Thanks for giving us the opportunity to enjoy it too. Next best thing to being there~

Thanks, Rob. I love being in the parks in the evening...makes for some nice footage. Enjoy the summer, man!
The slingshot is a Sky ride which throws you in the air and flips over, like a humongous version of those trampolines at county fairs. It is almost the size of the top thrill dragster
Thank you, CoasterBob, for uploading this!
I live in the north of Sweden, and this - Cedar Point - is my Mecka!
I know that one day I am going to HAVE to go there, if for nothing else than to make my existance on this planet feel complete!
Hey Coaster Bob! I have not commented on your videos before. I just wanted to say thanks for you doing this! You are awesome!
Your comment made me smile, Patrick :) Thanks for watching!
IDK why but the thing I like about roller coasters is how you hear the tracks roaring as you pass through the tracks
CEDAR POINT IS THE BEST PARK EVER!! And I live in New York State, so that's saying a lot. Nice video!
I live in NYS too! Going over Memorial Day break.
I agree I'm from texas
Great stuff as always! We love watching CP through your lense!
2:52. That is probably the most beautiful shot ever. What an amazing video. Props to you for such amazing videos.
Always have been a fan of your videos! You show us fantastic footage of rides to really showcase how great Cedar Point really is!
Looks like the perfect opening day with everything in working order.
I love the synchronization at 2:52
2:55 thee absolute greatest timing i have ever seen
Great quality video as is normal for you Bob, I enjoy all of your videos while streaming them on my TV. I especially like the Cedar Point stuff.
I've wanted to visit for years. My time will come soon God willing.
I am so happy you decided to film more of the Gemini!!!!! :D You do not film enough of it.
Great to see u back coasterbob. And great to see mean streak running again :,) last few times I went it was closed. I'm so pumped I'm going June 4th with school! Already got my fast lane plus ready ! :)
I love this video!!!! Cedar Point is like a second home to me!!! Thank you a ton for making this video:)
Only one word can describe the video of cedar point ........FUN !!!! Well done .
Can't wait to visit this summer! So pumped!
I love the sunset shots. Very nice.
me and my kids are going in July has part of our road trip....will be there from the 13th till the 16th. We are from Missouri and will be our first time there...very excited
I didn't know the point was getting a sling shot. One of my favorite rides!
second largest one of its kind, 360 feet!
THE best roller coaster park in the work. No one does it like Cedar Point. I haven't been there in years. Last time I was there the Mellinium force was brand new.
This park is on my "Things I must do before I die" list.
Well done Bob, always like watching ya vids. Thanks for sharing
Oh man, I miss this place so much!!!
skyhawk is back fully and mean streak looks better then ever
I want to go there so badly
I miss Cedar Point a lot! It was so fun! June '13
I'm SUPER excited because I'm going to CP for the first time ever this summer! Any suggestions for ride lineup?
Maverick, Millenium, Dragster is a must👌🏻👌🏻
Grady King Yupp just don't ride the Raptor or Gatekeeper first the lines are way longer in the morning than in the afternoon. The Millennium Force, Maverick, and Top Thrill Dragster lines will always be long so it's best to just pick and choose when you wanna wait. If you're rich, you can buy the fast lane, although CP is usually really good with getting riders in and out of trains in a timely manner.
amen to cedar point, the best thing that has ever happened to my life
I'm going this next weekend! Saturday night/Sunday. I'm super excited!
Great vid! Can't wait for more this summer!
I was at CP on opening day 2014! I was only 10 years old and I rode front seat rides on Dragster, Millennium Force, Mantis, Raptor, Magnum, Wicked Twister, and Gemini. I was very brave!
Ive definitely been spoiled all of my life with Universal and Disney here in FL. But CP looks nice anise place, great video btw. Id love to see a "walking tour" or CP and other regional park spike Lake Compounce, Dollywood and Kings Island
I'm going there in 16 days. So excited!!
Going this weekend and im sooooo excited! Gonna get good use out of my season pass this year :D Can't wait!
Coming this weekend with my school! Can't wait...any good tips? Thanks
I loved Dragster and power Tower! Millennium Force was a fun ride also!
I heard this park was more fun than both the Disney parks. I have never being here but I have been to both Disneyland and Disney World and didn't think that anything could top them, what do you think?
Well, to start off, you haven't lived if you haven't been to Cedar Point. *ahem* 301 foot tall millenium force, 400 foot tall top thrill dragter, maverick, raptor, GATEKEEPER! Well, if you think disney parks could top THAT, you're dumb. I have ridden every roller coaster there and it is AMAZING.
Actually it is 310 feet! "SNIFF"
Well that just depends. If you are a huge coaster fan, than cedar poit is by far better. If you like slower rides, disney is better. I love both, but wich one is better is for you to find out yourself ! It is definetly worth a trip!
I have been going to cedar point every year since I was like 4 and I went to disney world last year and compared to cedar point I was kinda bored with the disney tbh
Very well edited! No clue what I'd ride besides some of the spinning ones, but I wanna go there! :D lol
CoasterBob62 - Your camera work is impeccable man ! You get better footage of Cedar Point than Cedar gets of their own park lol.
Is fast passes worth it? I am going on opening day and I they cost $100 each.
Your editing skills keep getting better and better!
Looks like you had a great time! What roller coasters did you ride? I went to CP on May 25, 2014. I have rode all the coasters except Dragster and Millenium Force. My favorite is the Maverick. Whats your favorite?
Nice job shooting this. I appreciate you keeping the shots static as the rides went past and not panning with the ride. This helps show a sense of speed. Well done! And great editing as well. :)
I haven't been to the Point in almost 10 years. The last newest ride I went on was Maverick. That's how long it's been for me :(
Living in California, and now Texas has kept me away for too long. I am planning a trip back there this summer or fall....here's hoping.
So pumped for cedar point this year
Oh my god... Wicked twister and Skyhawk were actually running! And Mean Streak had a full train! That's practically unheard of!
When during the day was the blue side of Gemini running? every time I saw it the red side was the only side running.
Once again a super insight, the special I find with you, that you not only see the roller coasters, but does each small moments that you do not actually see, since you usually only see the roller coasters in many videos.
What do you think better in the dark or during the day? Why?
Thanks, Tobias. I try to show viewers more than just the coasters, though this video is pretty coaster-heavy! I prefer staying in the park until it closes at night. The temperature is cooler and I love amusement parks with all the lights on.
If you go there for a day how many coasters and thrill rides go on, I know it depends, but how many do you think I could
8:54 the best part about Mantis is that second inversion. This one after the loop you bank left then do this amazingly huge flying maneuver. This part makes the rest of the pain worth it.
Mantis gave me the biggest headache
Bob pxrox IKR, that GOD that they're making it Rougarou
Very good job. Looking forward to my 2014 visit
I went today, and I rode 7 roller coasters! Everybody thought it was gonna rain, so nobody barely came. The longest wait was 30 minutes!!! I rode 3 new rides today that I haven't rode before. Before I've rode others like Maverick, Raptor, Corkscrew ( also rode today ) but these, never before.
- Wicked Twister
-Millenium Force
- Magnum XL 200
Millenium Force-
I was so freaking scared! We started going up, and I'm like, "Crap! WHAT THE HECK WAS I THINKING!!!!". And then it started going up, and I said. "HECK YEAH! LETS DO THIS!" And threw my hands up. I had my hands up the whole time and I loved it. I feel like I can conquer anything. :D
Magnum XL 200-
I was really excited to ride it. I knew what it was like since I've seen the POVS, but none of my cousins and sister did! We started getting out of the little gates of the coaster, and started going up. My cousin and sister said, "WHAT! THAT IS OUR HILL!!!! I NEVER WOULD'VE AGREED TO DO THIS!" And I just told them it would be okay. And I put my hands up the whole time. It was fun! Then I went again and got front seat. Hands UPPPPP!!!
Wicked Twister-
I know this is stupid, but this was the scariest to me. It felt really weird! I still liked it, but not my fave.
HEAD BACK, HANDS UPPPP, AND ENJOY THE RIDE!
I am going next Sunday and Monday (Memorial day) and I am excited. I am so excited to ride gatekeeper again.
Yay going this Saturday soooo excited!
Opening day 2015 video coming soon? Hope to see some Rougarou footage as well as the other improvements!
***** Yes, the 2015 version will be posted in a couple of days!

Absolutely love the sound of the Arrow lift hill! Oh, and the appearance of #tbdbitl!
OMG SKYHAWK IS BACK OPEN AGAIN THANK YOU
Very well edited!
The Gatekeeper looks so awesome and terrifying, I would love to go on that!
OMG That is me and my friend running at the clip at 6:04!!!!!
In the green shirts
Kyle Hayes They were actually called "Safety Yellow".
Where you running to?
We were running to get on GateKeeper.
thealienboy11 Senior skip day?
Luv your videos man
I'm going Tuesday! Can't wait
Omg this is amazing
I've only been there once 20 years ago. a lot has changed and I have to go back!
This made me realise that there are more coasters there than I thought , before I watched this I thought it had about 4 but I was wrong wow As much as i want to I live in the uk so its gonna be hard!
I always go in the middle of the week not on weekends because the lines are too long...
gotta love the Michigan duchbag at 6:30 lol
Not sure if I like Pipe Scream just from the look of it...I road Surf Dog at Kings Island and it's longer and seems more intense...I think length helps the intensity of the ride. Don't know if that addition was worth it, but then again hopefully the children enjoy it most.
this park is so beautiful!!!!
The old rollercoasters like the Mean streak are the scariest in my opinion they are so rough, and they jerk you around so much, I went on pretty much all the rides last year except for the dragster.
Thank you for this video:)
Awsome vid as always Bob. I think I saw you at the park. Did not try the Crabfries but I will on the next trip. CP is one of the best pkaces on earth.
I see you got a couple of those "moment shots" in this video. Nice job. The whole area around Gemini looks amazing in your video. I hope to get there in the next couple of days to see it for myself.
Thanks, Sean. The Gemini midway looks very cool at night -- you'll like it. And the new rides are fun.
*****
Probably because 45th doesn't exactly.......well........matter? I could see something for a 50th anniversary but you can't just celebrate it every 5 years....
Great video, I'm still getting used to seeing Gatekeeper and not Space Spiral.
Same here
or Disaster Transport.
RIP my precious Disaster Transport .-.
Not even kidding, I loved that thing.

Awsome Video! lol did you even get to ride the coasters at all?
thanks...u just totally made my day
hi do you know how much is it to stay night at lighthouse point
Just got back from a 2 hour drive from Cedar Point. The last ride of the night before closing was Millennium Force, there were gnats and bugs in the trees and all the riders started getting pelted by the bugs in the face before the camera went off. All the pictures showed everyone covering their faces with their hands and tucking their mouths in their shirts lol. My sister in law had her mouth open and caught a few :)
I WISH SIX FLAGS MAGIC MOUNTAIN DID MORE STUFF LIKE CEDAR POINT.
10:40... A FULL TRAIN ON THE MEAN STREAK? What dimension was this video recorded in????
I'm just wondering... Did you film some of these clips on sunday of opening weekend?
Cedar Point closes?
Yes it does it is in Ohio so it snows in the winter so it closes early November then opens early May
Gatekeeper looks amazing!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for this video. It's great as always. Good to see how everything looks. I'm glad Skyhawk is completely fine now, as well as mean streak, and the water shooting on Maverick. The lighting looks amazing and the paint looks great as well(even if they didn't repaint much). Gemini's midway looks great too, except I don't like Monster's new colors but oh well. I also though Pipe Scream's colors could have been a little better. I don't know how I feel about the signs for the rides over there either. Monster's seems a bit odd for the feel of the park but I guess it's alright. And Pipe Scream's seems generic. Nice video editing too. I like some of the techniques you used.
What I want to know from Cedar Point is there going to be a great new improvements to their Halloweekends event or what is the new Halloween themed show they have?
I was there that day so far the only non rainy day this season
Just sitting here wait for this season!
Did you have something like a special filming pass?
Nope, I didn't have a special pass. All of the footage was shot from areas open to the general public.
Cant wait going saturday in the morning!!!!!!!!
I WAS THERE!!!!! IM GOING TOMORROW YAY!!!!!!
I like it!
I take it everything is running smoothly so far. I'm gonna be there next week that's why I'm asking
What would be awesome for next year if they put the Blue Streak train on backwards, or even better idea would be to retrack the Mean Streak and get rid of that trim brake on the lift to restore it's original speed but make it smoother like the Outlaw Run style tracking.
I haven't been to Cedar Point, but I really want to go because I love roller coasters. Does anyone have any ride recommendations?
Millennium and Maverick are the best rides there. GateKeeper and Wicked Twister and Dragster are also a must ride!!
Awesome Man Great Job Bob
Awesome video! And to those who havent, you must try the new crabfries!
Yeah, those crabfries are addictive!
Going there Saturday for the first time, any tips?
bring a lot of money everything there is really pricey and bring extra clothes you could get wet on some rides and water lots of water
Tobuscus Turner yeah! Bring a lot of money. A single water bottle is $5
Buy a fast pass if your rich
PlaysPlaystation It's less than 150 bucks, you don't exactly have to be rich...
Im glad i made someone laugh 10 months later lol
Awesome, Bob!!
