    Snake River Falls is underrated IMO
    It’s low key scary going down that drop. It gives you a sense of out of control that no other ride gives you
    It also had a great aesthetic with the boom sound then splash
    It will be missed, but also looking forward to what’s next

    I'd say they might are doing a MACK rides super splash as replacement. It has an option for turntables, vertical lifts, coaster sections and a big splash. The park still has a water ride and a family attraction, while still adding something towards families.

      Efteling also has just one water ride and that park attracts almost 6 million visitors a year. Also, it is together with the indoor darkrides (because of the shade), the most popular on hot summer days. Efteling is my home park. Their target audience is families because they can't build higher then the trees. Except for one spot: Behind Python they can add up to three attractions of 60 meters in height. All the other spots are 25 meters or less. So that makes building large coasters a no-go for the park. Would Cedar Point benefit from a good large people eating darkride?

    Great video, I personally could see another log flume on the island to combat the removal of Snake River Falls. also I would love to see the museum and facades stay in Frontiertown, I think if they rework the show building behind the facades they could do an indoor ride or a large gift shop/restaurant hybrid. I think the bridge would go where the current station is, with the path going over the train tracks over to the old Shoot the Rapids ride area. Then the entire island can become a Camp Snoopy expansion with rides from Kiddy Kingdom and Planet Snoopy being relocated, and the new log flume and maybe a new family coaster being the new E ticket of the land.
    Then what about Planet Snoopy and Kiddy Kingdom? Both areas will be gutted with everything removed except for the Kiddy Kingdom carousel and coliseum. They can then use all of that land for a Boardwalk themed expansion, with possibly a new roller coaster, plenty of trees, green space, a new stage for live entertainment (Boardwalk nights, live bands, etc), and a new restaurant in the style of the Pavillion. You can also add a couple new state of the art flat rides in the area, which is something Cedar Point desperately needs.

      Didn't they have two flume rides in the 70s? Seems like I remember a log flume and a boat-themed flume ride in different areas of the park.
      I'm sure they're looking at ridership and have some serious research into it. Plus, if people are hot, they tend to buy more overpriced drinks. When people pay over $5 for a fountain drink that costs CP about 50c, that's a HUGE profit margin. Much higher than any water ride would return!

    If they could somehow turn the old Town Hall into the entrance to this new hypothetical ride’s queue, that would be so cool. Great for theming and a way to preserve that historic building. But having the ride entrance at the old Forbidden Frontier makes more sense.

      Since they always do the October HalloWeekends, maybe they could use the Town Hall as part of a themed dark ride, something with a scare factor. Maybe a bit scarier than Disney's Haunted Mansion, but not so over-the-top that pre-teens wouldn't enjoy it.

    • @cedarpointless
      @cedarpointless  Місяць тому +2

      I don't think it needs to be "ground breaking" in any record-breaking way. I think Tony Clark said publicly that they are no longer chasing records. I think that's for a good reason. I think the world has come to realize that there is way more to making a top-tier ride than just records. So, to me, a ground-breaking coaster would just be something that is extremely well designed.

    Why not just move ALL of Camp Snoopy to the island? It's already camp-themed, with awesome bathrooms and a central playground. Move the Camp Snoopy flat rides and Woodstock Express to the island and add a family log flume like the one at Kings Island. Connect it to both the Gemini Midway at the old SRE entrance as well as the Frontier Trail.
    Add a new flat and a Mack watercoaster where SRF was (and the spot where Frontier Fling currently sits) and the east side of the island. A bridge to the east side of the island would be tough due to the train tracks.
    Rename Wilderness Run back to Jr. Gemini and reface the entrance to where it previously was.
    Built a mid-size GG or GCI woodie (or a RMC single rail) where Camp Snoopy currently sits.
    Love your waterfront restaurant idea!

  • @Shaggszgn777
    @Shaggszgn777 Місяць тому

    Just a few things to think about here, 1. Town Hall isn't going anywhere, it's a CP landmark and I think there's still plans to re use that building. 2. Frontier Fling maybe on the chopping block as well due to low ridership/sales, that would add to the available land. 3. Frontier Trail is well overdue for an update and/or expansion. The area is somewhat dead now with it's biggest attraction being the petting farm. I foresee some sort of water attraction across from Thunder Canyon, and some big updates to Frontier Trail to give it a new life but keeping the old school charm.

  • @Sasskitten
    @Sasskitten Місяць тому +1

    I think it will be another water ride similar to snake river falls because that is like the only water ride where either on the ride or the bridge you are guaranteed to get soaked. There's no 100% guarantee that you will get cooled down on the other water rides they still have and that includes thunder canyon. I mean people ride it because they want to be totally drenched to the point that it take awhile to dry. Oh wouldn't forbidden frontier make a nice place for a scare zone? (It would have to be kid friendly type of scare zone but still. Could work.)

    Biggest reason the island failed in my opinion is because it's always been one way in and out. Even the halloweekends bayou attraction hardly gets a line because it's off the path. Expanding the path and completing some type of loop would be the biggest move to get foot traffic to the island. I would be super hype if they built another Maverick like coaster or a cool new area with some flat rides. WCO will be a good one

    • @cedarpointless

      @chadportenga7858 Місяць тому

      I was thinking the same thing about no second path into the island. If they made it accessible from opposite sides of the park, people could use it as a shortcut and potentially stop at shops and food stands. But, if it's a dead end trail, you need some kind of fantastic ride to draw people onto the island. A playground isn't the answer. Families don't pay $$$ and come to CP just to play on a playground.

    Great thoughts! This would indeed make a lot of sense to expand the footprint of the park. The more footage they can make people walk to get to a new attraction, the more people might need to spend two or more days to get everything done.
    Plus, this looks like it would be a really interesting area, if they could get it done right.

    • @cedarpointless

    Great video... yes the word expansion does seem very calculated in the announcement of Snake River Falls closing. Also loved the theorized images of new pathway. In your image in the video you have the waterway to the "river" almost exactly what did exist prior to building of Snake River Falls. (It did have water connect at a smaller level [sort of a small canal] from the red brick bridge from Frontier Trail into Frontier Town all the way to the "river" for the old boat ride around the island before they built the huge concrete splash down basin for Snake River Falls).

    I predicted a B&M Hyper or giga. They could really use the capacity one of those offers back there and having the splashdown on Diamondback would be nice. If they relocate Skyhawk, there is enough space for the splashdown, brake run, and a new station there. I really don't want to see another low capacity coaster.

    My idea could be expensive but i think Cedar Point needs to bring something big to bring more people into that are
    I think Cedar point will definitely add bridges to be able to go through Millennium island through the back side and front side also going through the former Snake River expedition and if possible maybe through Iron Dragon and Rougarou.
    With this is what i would do with my creative mind is that Cedar point could repurpose the idea like you said keep the playgrounds and river raft etc while retheming the island back into a Dinosaur themed land and maybe the park could add food stands and theme it to like what Dinosaurs alive once was. Cedar point had a server on coaster ideas was a Tower coaster a Tilt coaster a Mack Water Coaster and a family coaster. I thought the Mack Water Coaster and Tower Coaster and Family coaster would be the best fits. The Mack water coaster can be called like Dinosaurs Alive the ride and then the Tower coaster can be the lands center peace the Family coaster can be apart of camp snoopy and maybe they can connect the lands with new pathways. Maybe they can add food stands like you said as well as new flat rides hopefully more unique ones which i think the park needs. Id also like to see a Flying theatre of some sort it would fill in a dark ride which is something i think the park needs most.
    My idea for the Town hall museum is actually a new dark ride thats haunted theme i think it would untalize the building while being able to keep the building. A restaurant wouldn’t be a terrible idea either i just think it would give it more a porpoise like ive always thought a Haunted mansion type attraction would be pretty cool doesn’t have to be Disney level just fun and quirky. I think that would be pretty cool for a replacement. Lastly this is where it gets expensive and unrealistic i think it would be cool if Cp opened a new Intaman 500ft coaster at around Millennium forces station and go around the Island and the park to compete with Falcons Flight . While the manufacturer Intaman could help work on TT2 to make it more reliable that would be a win win if they figure things out with Intaman. Probably not happening but that would be cool and maybe around that new record breaking coaster CP could open a new modern museum close by and that can be a new themed land as well. Speaking of witch i thought it would be really cool if Cp opened a new smaller hotel at the former cp dorms plot and maybe they could open a new Vekoma flyer or B&M similar to Fly at Phantasialand that goes over the water this coaster would open like the next year to be sure it doesn’t open at around the same year. I like the idea of a Raptor but i think it could go at another area. A Free spin would also be a good fit capacity wise wether it would be for millennium island or not. Cp could even go with a Mack Stryker to break the inversion record that could go with the expansion or a later addition. Same thing with a GCI and other possible additions.
    It would also be a good addition for the island if Cp added a boat ride experience named after GA Beckoning or something that goes around the island. It would add a more relaxing attraction to the park.
    I apologize for the long comment but your video brought back to some of my ideas I’ve thought of and this is what i would do as park manager. I’m blowing money lol but i thought it would be something that will draw people to that Island. Nice video keep it up!

      My entire family agrees that getting rid of the boat ride entirely was a mistake. They really should have something that utilizes the river because it makes a fun, simple attraction.

      Something similar to Boo Blasters. I wouldn’t say exactly like Boo Blasters. I would take the shooting aspect out of it so something more like the Haunted Mansion at Disneyland ofc not nearly as themed maybe themed like Boo Blasters but i think it would be cool if Cedar Point brought the Defunct Attractions museum they do for Halloweekends and put it for the que line for this attraction season round ive always thought that would be really cool and i thought it would keep the museum aspect of the Town hall.
      Yeah I think the Park definitely needs a boat attraction. All thought one Issue comparing 2 parks here ofc different with it being man made with Cedar points river and the Rivers of America at Disneyland and the Magic Kingdom . Its much bigger compared to Cedar points river even with Jungle Cruise much more space. I’m not sure if they could fit a Mark Twain sized boat but maybe if they open up around where Snake river falls was and bring the River out to Lake Erie maybe it could work? Maybe it could be taken out to Lake Erie and Cedar point could advertise the attraction as a way to get pictures of the park! It think thats something that would be for all ages and could be a bigger draw than Snake River Expedition.

    I am expecting something like this where they are going to use the island as an extension of Camp Snoopy. I wouldn't be shocked though if the coaster on the left side of the island is a "Big Bear Mountain" style launch coaster that the entire family can enjoy. By making an updated family ride that would allow them to remove Cedar Creek or even Iron Dragon one day as those two are the most likely to go next in the next 10 years.

    I think you’re sniffing up the right tree. When they installed Forbidden Frontier I thought they missed a HUGE opportunity to connect it to Camp Snoopy AND Frontier Trail (where the actual entrance was). This would make for a great, natural way to cross the island without needing to go all the way around. I could see them keep the current entrance to Forbidden Frontier (and the connection to Camp Snoopy) and possibly replace Snake River Falls with a splash battle similar to what Carowinds is getting next year (those are a ton of fun), and then developing the rest of the island as you suggested, with some sort of smaller anchor coaster (RMC Raptor, Gerstlaur, or a Gravity Group family woodie) that transitions well into a family area.

    I'm not thrilled about reopening the west side of the island to foot traffic. The current path infrastructure on the island is NOT a shortcut between Camp Snoopy and CCMR, and the bridge by Frontier Fling is also a bit of a hike from Iron Dragon. The only way this makes sense is if CP has a plan to anchor this half of the island with two family thrill coasters.
    In this case, Frontier Fling might be moved to the SRF pond (if it's still worth operating as an upcharge. The views of Mav and SteVe would be awesome) Then CP would build a Mack water coaster using the current FF plot and some of the land on the island. After several years, when CCMR is closed, CP could then combine the remaining land on the island with the Mine Ride site for a ground-up GCI with 100% Titan Track. But even then, the current paths would need to be filled in with flat rides over time.

      I like the museum. I'd like to see it stay in some form. However, having a very large, vacant set of buildings, especially with such an identifiable facade is really wasteful. If they do leave the buildings, then they need to find something to do with them.

I love Cedar Point, but if they did get rid of TT2 they really could put the first 500 ft trex model. With the mixture of land and water elements, it could be called like Erie Anaconda or Snake River Siren…

      My wife was a pescatarian for 10 years, and every time I bring up Watkin's Hatchery she says this. Thankfully, when they closed it they made the decision to formally add the "Sides Platter" for many of the restaurants, which gives vegetarians plenty of options, but there is still very little in the park to serve Vegans. There should be at least ONE vegan option in the park.
      I love having more places to eat in the park personally. But not everyone does. I think the best way to really make it work is to have more people who are eating in the park, and to do that you have to take some new approaches. Having places closed all the time is definitely not good. Currently have a few different videos I'm writing around these topics.

    That word "expansion" does strike me as calculated. I can see some of the existing infrastructure to be the basis of a new area of the park, a la aeronautica landing. I think the Playscape it's a great thing to keep. It's perfect for families, kids can burn off steam while parents relax in the hammocks and sip a beverage. That should be kept. The existing bathrooms and concessions areas etc could still be utilized and it would certainly offer enough space for a large scale coaster *IF* (and that's a big if) that's still on cedar point's playback. Bridging the river would also solve some major logistical difficulties for employees, (not having to walk the entire loop to get to where you need to be) and increase convenience for guests. While I am certain this won't happen, my mind is telling me to consider the space that would become available if they crossed over TT2, removed the aging corkscrew, and moved some of those maintenance, plumbing, electrical and groundskeeping offices and warehouses to the vacant space where the dorms used to be.
    I'm looking back to that video zamperla released for their new multi launch coaster. I'd love to see a large scale GCI hopping over both TT2 and the midway.
    I also think your idea of extending the river towards the maverick pond could happen. The park needs all the floodwater drainage it can get.

    • @cedarpointless
      @cedarpointless  2 місяці тому +2

      Love the ideas!
      Many people want the change to happen around corkscrew. However, the issue with it is that those buildings are actually laundry for the hotel, so that needs to remain nearby the hotel and there really isn't another place for it. I'd love to see them figure that out logistically because it would make a LOT of sense to put something there. My only hangup about it is that whatever eventually replaces corkscrew, I'd really like to see it keep the iconic corkscrews over the midway. To me, that is a defining "Cedar Point" symbol.
      I do think Big Coasters are still on CP's playbook, but I think they are taking a very different approach to it than they have for the past 30 or so years. They are known as THE coaster park around the world and I think they are trying to walk this fine line of maintaining that reputation while also being known for more than that. Which I think is a wise goal. But it's a long game and we can only sit here and speculate while we watch it play out.
      That reason is precisely why I think they will add both a coaster and a family area in this expansion. They want to do both.
      Thanks for watching!

    I dont know if this is a controversial opinion but water coasters and rides should go in the waterpark if the park has one. I love water rides but ill never get on one because it either involves carrying a change of clothes around with me all day or being ok with getting wet and chaffing the rest of the day. It was a bit more doable when i was a kid and didnt have a phone, keys, or wallet to worry about but as an adult its a logistical nightmare.

    • @cedarpointless
      @cedarpointless  Місяць тому

      I don't necessarily disagree as long as the waterpark is appropriately paired with the park. But I also think it's important to have something for everyone, so I do think rides like SRF should exist and be available for those who want them.

      I actually don't think they will do another family coaster. They already have Wild Mouse, Wilderness Run, Woodstock Express and the Cedar Creek Mine Ride that all fall in/around that category. They are definitely trying to adjust their brand to be more than just a park known for coasters (which I actually do think is a good thing) but I also believe they are trying to walk a fine line between changing the perception of the park while maintaining their coaster reputation. So I definitely see where you think a family coaster might happen. But personally, I'm not totally sold.
