- Beautiful weather welcomed a large group of coaster enthusiasts for Cedar Point's annual CoasterMania! -- a day full of morning and evening ERT, food, contests, prizes, Q&A and a wonderful cruise around the peninsula. This video details my day in the park, which started just before noon and ended at midnight. All 18 coasters are shown here, with some getting more love than others (sorry, Blue Streak!) The only ERT I participated in was Valravn at night. Filmed Friday, June 3, 2016.
AWESOME video! I'm going to The Point this weekend! This video got me PUMPED!!!
Best half hour of my day - homesick! Nothing like this in LA/California. Park looks great. Great video. THANK YOU BOB!
Nice to hear -- thanks!
Incredible video Bob! I love the cruise shots. The reverse POV around 15:15 reminded me of looking back at the park from the rear window of my parent's car as we headed home down the causeway back in the 70's. Oh, and the sunset footage is the best I have seen! You really have outdone yourself with this video!
Thanks, man! The cruise was so cool. Wish they'd bring back those daily paddlewheel tours. Regarding the sunset shots.....I was trying to take a nap in the car late that afternoon to recharge for the evening, when I noticed that the sky was getting very interesting. So of course I had to postpone the nap to film it. Glad I did. Hope to see you soon, dude!
Sean Flaharty ito has favor f
This was one of the best videos I've seen, goodjob, coasterbob 🙂
Thanks!
+CoasterBob62 your welcome 😌
one of the best CP videos I've seen on UA-cam. Just came back a week ago. I was not really blown away by Valravyn. Maybe because I had already done Sheikras and Griffon.
Always great footage. Thanks for what you do. love the views from the water. Coaster mania is an awesome event.
Thanks for watching! I wish I could have done the cruise all day long.
Being at Cedar Point is like being a little kid at recess, its like one big play ground espically with fastlane. Id take it over anything.
After having a fast pass, I refuse to do it any other way
how well did fast lane work?where there a lot of people using it? did you go on a weekend or week day?
+Red88Rex sweet!! that's what I was hoping to hear😁😁
Gabriel Vela Have fun! Ride Millennium Force as much as possible :)
+Red88Rex Hehehe Millimium force is Sooo FREAKIN' SCARY BRO LIKE DOWN THE HILL U CANT SCREAM CAUSE UR THROAT IS GOING TO HURT BADLT SO BE CARFUL DUDE
Best park on the planet. Great video work capturing it. Thanks CoasterBob62!
Thanks for watching!
These videos you make are AMAZING!! They are shot and edited so well. Keep it up!
Thanks for watching!
I absolutely love your videos 😄 keep them up ❤️
Great video.. It makes me so excited for my first visit this season on Saturday the 16th.. Valravn is gonna kick butt!
Phenomenal footage Bob! Cedar Point is my "Happy Place" and I have definitely been away for far too long.
17:15. so well timed!! this was fun to watch. we will go for the first time this coming week. thanks so for taking the time to video and edit this.
I hope you have fun, and thanks for watching!
Bob, thank you so much for all these videos you post. I haven't been to Cedar point in many years. However, watching your videos is the next best thing to being there. Your editing and overall perspective of the park always makes me feel like I'm in the atmosphere. Some of those angles you shoot the coasters at are simply amazing. A few years back, you shot a video of Kennywood Park. That's my home park and you did a great job with that as well. No one else's park videos on youtube even come close to yours. Thanks again and keep up the great work.
Thanks for your nice comments, I really appreciate it. I plan to visit Kennywood again in the near future. It has a great mix of old and new rides and a lot of history -- I love filming there. Thanks again!
Your welcome Bob. Cedar Point is obviously king of amusement parks, but I'm glad you can appreciate the charm that Kennywood has to offer. I love that they still have old rides like the turtle, kangaroo, Bayern curve, and the classic, older coasters, and yet they still have some modern day thrill rides like phantom's revenge, black widow, and skycoaster to give riders a mix of thrills. I really like phantom's revenge, but I always loved the original version of the ride, the Steel Phantom. Not sure if you have ridden the original version, but I always thought it was way more intimidating and packed a bigger punch with all the inversions. Take care man and keep up the great work.
Also, if you were planning on making a future trip to Kennywood, may I suggest you consider coming for phantom fright nights or holiday lights. Phantom fright nights is Kennywood's version of Halloweekends. Lots of lights and decorations, haunted attractions, and fog machines all throughout the park make for a great atmosphere. Holiday lights is a Christmas event that occurs every weekend night from the weekend after Thanksgiving and all through Christmas. There are tons of lights and decorations, the largest decorated Christmas tree in Pa, traditional park and holiday themed foods, and, of course, rides to enjoy. None of the coasters are open, but there are a handful of flat rides open for all to enjoy. There is something about riding rides during Christmas time that really puts you in the holiday spirit. Kennywood goes all out for both events and, with your camera skills, these events would really make for some awesome video opportunities.
Form 12:04 to 15:00 THAT WAS AMAZING 😍. RIP RePlay Button
All the skyline shots from the cruise are so pretty!
The music, car alarm, screaming, and person running across at the bottom of the screen at 25:10 made me think I was watching a horror movie for a second... great video, it's got me all hyped up for my trip in the 2017 season!
Can't wait to visit this park one day
its really awesome, I've been there twice. Hope you enjoy it the day you go :D
Thanks yea I can't wait
Another amazing CoasterMania vid! Thanks bob!
Can't wait to get there this year! I'm looking forward to Valravn.
Those seagulls are nuts there. One time I threw them a tomato slice, and the one swallowed it in one gulp. It was terrifying
Birds of the sea, crazy huh?
Another great one Bob. Looked like a blast.
Hello Bob,
Outstanding coaster footage and the editing was killer. If it is all possible your videos get better and better. 24:38, just awesome. Thanks so much for sharing this with us~
Rob/Boston
Thanks, Rob!
Love the guy on valravin at the end. Haha 1 guy just yelling yeah the whole time.
That was my favorite part of the video. 😂
Great Coaster Mania video! I love Cedar Point! :)
Okay, but i know im like a year late, but what a fantastic video. I liked how it focused a lot on Valravn. I havent been to the park since 2013. Great video. Please make a CoasterMania 2017.
Great, great video!! Sorry we missed you. I really thought I would make the night ERT...but...was in bed and asleep by 10:30!!
I was looking for you two! I was totally worn out by midnight and still had to drive home :P Great day though!
I love these vlogs. Thanks Coasterbob
Came back to watch this video as this was peak Cedar Point and it has def fallen off a little bit but hopefully will return to this greatness again
This was an awesome video u have a great skill and your shots are amazing I wish I could learn how to make videos like this
Valravn was awesome best dive coaster ever!!
I was here on Friday. Spent the whole video trying to find myself lol
RIP Mean Streak. It was fun knowin' ya!
bird at 26:33 was like oh crap then flied away XD
Another truly amazing video as always coasterbob62!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
Darn, still haven't achieved the goal of making it in a Coasterbob video. I was up from Texas this day, what a great day it was!
your point is so awesome I'm going there this May 7th it's going to be great
I was just here yesterday. Had a great time minus the pop-up thunderstorm we got caught up in. Mean Streak hasn't aged well. I hope they turn it into a hybrid coaster.
Awesome CoasterMania video! I went there two days after you for the Coaster Campout but it got cancelled because of a power outage that happened on the causeway. So me and my family are returning back soon, hopefully I get to go on Valravn! :)
I kind of wish I was there for the outage....would have made for an interesting video! Sorry you didn't get to camp out in the park.
+CoasterBob62 Yeah. CP would've kept it going if they had emergency backup generators. :(
Love your videos man! I'm actually in this one riding the millennium force front seat! I thought I saw someone recording while I was on it, and I thought, "hmm, I wonder if it was him?".
That's great! I'm always wondering if anyone recognizes me when I'm filming.
One of the best videos from Cedar Point!
The recordings sunset are amazing!
If this happens more often that the birds sitting on the tracks? (26:32)
Thanks! I see gulls on or near the tracks all the time, but I've never seen one get hit (not that it's never happened though!)
Incredible directing! You have a great eye for scenery and capturing the excitement of every ride. How do you time everything perfectly, when two coaster trains drop at once?
Thanks! It takes both patience and dumb luck to get the coasters to align. Sometimes I'll wait several cycles to get that perfect shot....and it doesn't happen. I have more luck on busy days because they're running more trains.
Great if not awesome video. My only lets downs were where was Power Tower, the iconic Giant Ferris Wheel, the Cadillac Cars, Nostalgic Frontier Trail and the lights and sounds of the Arcade at nights. Sorry but have been going for 50 yrs and you just know what got overlooked. I only named a few.
Still an excellent job!!
Power tower got leveled for valravn great coaster for beginers.
Disaster transport is no longer as well.
Ronald Dreimanis Power Tower didn't get leveled... What the hell are you talking about?
at 2:20, just another reason cedar points amazing :)
and I don't mean the ride ;)
oh wow i must have missed u because i was down there for that weekend lol nice vid
THIS WAS FILMED ON THE DAY THAT MY SCHOOL WENT TO CEDAR POINT!!!
Valravin looks fantastic
Gate keeper is more thrilling.
YAYYYYYYYYY ITS HERE!!!!!
I think this is my 10th time watching this.
Excellent!
another great video!
BEST video yet! I love how you highlighted each coaster! What do you think about the RMC Mean Streak rumor on Screamscape? Do you think it will happen in 2017?
what seriosuly that would be amazing
I was told that it's just a rumor. Not that it won't ever happen, but not likely for 2017. Kings Island will be in the spotlight next season.
+CoasterBob62 I saw the leaked wooden coaster plans....interesting. If both happen though I will definitely have to head back out to OH next year!
i highly doubt that layout is the true coaster layout some fan club pretty much toke it off google and comfired it without really knowing
Quisiera estar ahí, súper video
Awesome truly amazing
Good vid!!! I was there 2 weeks ago!
CoasterBob62, did you ride the Valvrn? If so, how was it? Also, have you ridden Rougarou? I haven't been to CP since Gatekeeper was there so I missed out on the last two rides.
I wasn't a big fan of Mantis, but it got much better for me once they transformed it into Rougarou. I've been on it many times, as well as Valravn, another great coaster.
I forgot, how late is the park usually open if you are staying at one of the hotels?
Bob, what is your process to get all the footage, do you film that specific ride and then go on it? or do you get all your filming done and then enjoy the rest of the day riding?
With major projects like this one, I spend the first few hours filming different sections of the park, trying to get as much footage as possible. If a ride has a short line, I'll ride it. I do less filming late in the day and at night and ride more stuff, but I always have a camera at the ready.
+CoasterBob62 okay thanks I was just wondering, I tried to film a lot of cedar point but it was very hard the problem was I skipped around to much
I've been here many times
It's sad that it's July of 2016 and I never knew the Valravn existed until now.
did you say "quiet, i'm filming!" at 27:48?
Yes, I did -- just joking around with my friend.
I have one question dude, Do you like the Magnum?
Yes, I like Magnum, one of my favorite coasters......except for the little airtime hills at the end.
That's funny, because the airtime hills are the reason I always ride it!
Great Video! Does anyone remember the price of tickets for non season pass holders? I want to go this year and i wont get the Cedar fair associate discount lol
I'll be honest, I've rode both griffon and valravn... On valravn although it has a stronger layout it's so forceless after the drop. However griffon seems to be more intense. It might just be me though 🤔
i was there Saturday an had fun
the raptor doesn't look that tall in videos
I simply have to go to this park one day. Being from the UK, Ohio is not an easy to place to get to sadly.
As an Ohio native, I can tell you that it's the most fun you can have! It's a great park with many great rides and the beach setting is amazing.
Same. From the UK too, would love to one day just go to the U.S and go all round the country going to all the biggest parks.
Is a halloweekends Saturday a good time to go to cedar point with how busy it could be?
Real busy
Hell no avoid cedar point at all costs on Halloweekends, you will literally wait 2 hours for the worse rides. It's not worth it for the haunted houses. The best time to go is a weekday in the summer.
Somewhat fixated on Valravin, no?
Other than that, WTG!
Very nice man💯
Very nice!
I was there then!
Are you in any of these clubs?
Yes, I'm in the Great Ohio Coaster Club.
I rode the dragster and I am nine
nice intro. live in Sandusky Ohio in almost go there everyday
Colby Kramp consider yourself lucky
yo quiero ir dios dame esa oportunidad de ir 😢😭
I went to CP a day after this video went up lol
I am going to go spring break
Did you do the battle for cedar point game?
No, I've heard about it but haven't played it.
+CoasterBob62 what clan would u join if u did play it?
how can you get a boat trip? can you get it at the park?
The boat tour was only for that day, however they just brought back limited boat service from Sandusky to CP and back.
cool thanx man.. I go to Cedar Point and Kings Island every year being from Ohio. Had the pleasure of going to Carowinds last year and rode the fury 325 wondering what your opinion of that park was?
What is coastermania
I just went to cedar point wed and Thursday I am not very happy going here anymore rides broke down a lot and not just one or two it seems like cedar point is cutting back on maintenance people and for the amount of money this park brings in on a daily basis there is no reason for it I also had the same experience on a hallow weekends day last October.
what happened to shoot the rappids
Rapids
+Alec Snyder It was removed from the park
It was removed because a groups of people fell back and were injured
+Penn Gebhard That happened 2 years before it closed down. That may be one of the reasons why but the main reason is because it wasn't a popular ride to begin with. It was considered the worst out of all the water rides at Cedar Point. Maybe it was popular when it first opened but it certainly never was more popular than Snake River Falls.
I was there same day can see me on gatekeeper
R.I.P MEAN STREAK
Aftershock Racing46 it's getting an RMC Treatment right now
pipe scream??
Haley hodge
JUNE 8 IS MY BIRTHDAY
SAME OMG
Man I LOVE this park! I've just uploaded my video from the Sunrise Thrills VIP Tour, it's only 16 mins long and took me over 20 hours to edit! I've got a lot to learn from you! I'd love you to check it out someday if you get some time :) Bex x
I hope mean streak dont get the axe. Timber wolf is in worst shape at worlds of fun thats the only legendary coaster there.
Ronald Dreimanis It's getting an RMC Treatment
The operators need to lay off the "you are clear and outta here" spiel for a while
And "welcome back riders how was your ride" I think that line is in every video clip in my library.
CoasterBob62 Just glad someone else feels the same way I do.
***** I don't.

Can you plz don on-ride POVs next time, I hate off-ride POVs
Sorry, but on-ride POV's are not allowed, so I don't do them . Regardless, you can find plenty of on-ride POV's on UA-cam.
First
