Took me 4 years’ of what I call “roller coaster training” to enjoy them as much as my new husband loved them. I a 9:20 absolutely knew I would love the rollercoasters if I could get over the fear. going upside down was my greatest fear. What I ended up finding out is going upside down is nothing. My husband was so patient with me. He went through all the boring rides, and he suggested what he thought was best for me and I decided I could brave. My favorite comfort ride was Iron Dragon. When I got a bit more brave, Blue Streak was easy. I conquered my fear of going upside down at Hulk at Universal. After that, I was able to keep my eyes open and realize that keeping my eyes open was more fun and not scary. It took 4 visits over 4 years to find the excitement I knew I could feel on the rollercoasters. I have ridden all the coasters and hands-down Millennium is still my favorite (but I still fight myself to keep my eyes open on the lift hill so I can see the beauty of the park around me). Cedar Point will always and forever be my favorite place in earth.
I waited almost 2 hours for Steel Vengeance, as soon as we were getting ready to board maintenance showed up. The ride ops were amazing at keeping us entertained and talked to us. First time on it and got back row with no trims!
One of the times you guys rode Top Thrill you were on the train just before my son and I. Recognized you guys and then saw you guys filming at one point. Too many people in the way to say hello when we walked past you. Opening day was great and my 10 year old son rode Top Thrill as his very first coaster. Couldn’t be more proud of him! RIDE ON!

Great opening day coverage! I'm the one that said hi to you guys from the yellow train of Millennium Force, while you were in line. I had a typical CP opening day experience. It was awesome to be back in the park! Coasters were constantly closing and opening all day, but that's to be expected on opening day. The digital wait time screens are a great addition. The vibe on the TT2 midway is electric , its cool to see so many people over there again. I like the idea of the single use Fast Lane kiosks, but I could not figure out how to use the TT2 one. I asked 3 employees and they didn't know either. It ended up printing 2 out for me before I could finish paying. We overheard people in line for TT2 say they waited a little over 3 hours for regular line. The food service was great, the FH and GP lines moved quickly. I can't wait to get back to the Point soon!
I was there yesterday! Park was busy but not crazy busy. We started with Wild Mouse, then Iron Dragon, Blue Streak, Mille, Magnum. My friends did Valravn, Top Thrill 2 and Rougarou. It was a great day! Oh and it was my first time riding Mille
Hey, It's chuck. Nice seeing you guys Saturday at Top Thrill 2. Made friends with a nice lady that's a die hard coaster enthusiast, and we got 35 rides on Top Thrill 2 with season Fast Lane Plus on Monday. The Q was basically a walk on all day in the fast lane plus line. Thanks for all the information and content fellaz!!👍👍👍
It was so great to finally meet you guys on Saturday! Awesome video, as usual - thank you! We've finished day 2 of our 3 day opening weekend trip. With fast lane, our typical wait time was about 1.5 hours per ride on TT2 (for only 3 rides so far) due to down time. We're hoping to get more lucky tomorrow. However, when things are running, operations were indeed fast and impressive! We're going to figure this Churro thing out tomorrow, as we are thinking who you think is Churro is acutally his younger brother Chorizo (aweful name for an animal, by the way) who we were introduced to during winter chill out. We think Churro is the furry headed one, but we'll ask tomorrow and report back. Thanks again guys! We so look forward to all of your new videos!
@@BeachcliffStudios Jesse, indeed you are correct! They shaved Churro's head, and it is the younger Chorizo that is the fluffy headed one. Fast lane on TT2 was a walk-on from 10-11am and again from 6-8pm!
Great coverage of opening day. Really hope they get Gemini running, I really like that one and will be gutted if it's still down in 2 weeks. The cinematic musical montage halfway through the video was very well put together, Loved it!
Got on top Thrill 2 two more times today. Got a front row seat and another one in the back again. Absolutely love it. One thing I've noticed is that when it breaks down, it's always up fairly quickly compared to the Dragster. Even when I had to wait 2 hours and 15 minutes it felt like nothing compared to four and a half that I originally waited for Top Thrill Dragster. Got a lot of good rides in today, it was nice to have a blast with fast lane without having to worry about waiting forever. I didn't get to try wild mouse yet, it was down when I went over to ride it. Hoping to get a ride on it tomorrow / Monday.
Thanks yinz Guys for another amazing video! I love when you got to blue streak and said one train what are we in kennywood lol! Steve is worth the wait, that’s never up for debate! Maverick and Steve are always worth the wait. 4 hours wait time for tt2?!?!?!!! I hope that was just a rumor. You guys are awesome! I love this channel and I will be joining the exclusive club soon!
they opened valravn early on opening day. ride op said they were ready and had the green light to open. we were the very first ride of the season. they opened it at 9:25am
Not an issue. Of course there’s never anything wrong with redundancy in the safety department. But restraints are designed to fail in the lock position so they are completely safe.
Do you know how the new single use Fastlane kiosks work? I couldn’t figure out how to use them so I just bought them through the app. However you have to buy a paper one from the kiosk for TT2 because you can’t have your phone in line
@@MultiverseofMcfly we used to use a panasonic s5 with their s-log which is great but this honestly is just as good. The lack of aperture control on iPhones is the only real downfall.
How were you guys able to ride TT2 three times in two hours? Did you buy the single use fast passes? Or was the general line shorter than the posted wait time (2 hours)?
Great video. I’m so hyped for the season! But Does coastermania tix ever go this late? I have my whole family’s trip on my back so I really don’t want to miss these tix. Will you post a community post when the tix are announced.
Can you buy a fast lane at the park or do you have to preorder? Should I worry about fast lane running out for Sunday may 12? I plan on getting a single day fast lane + add on
Do you happen to know how much single use fast lane is? I am looking at going to Cedar Point May 20 -22. It looks like they are not expecting it to be busy because Fast Lane is at a lower price and hotel prices are pretty affordable.
Valravn fast lane line can fool you. It looks long, but you may be seeing the regular line. When you look at the stairs to the loading platform the fastlane line is on the outside.
I have a question. I'll be going on May 24th and will have a fast lane which will get me one rife on TT2. I also have early entry. I want to ride TT2 at least twice. Do I need to go straight to TT2 at 9am right as I enter or can I get a ride on Milly first? Didn't know if it's worth it going to ride milly once or just go straight to TT2.
Not easy to answer this early in the season. We will say definitely to use your fast lane later in the day when most others used theirs already. But either way riding millennium for early entry is a good idea (as long as it’s open)
That’s tough. Not steel vengeance, it’s rarely open by 10am plus it can randomly get short lines during the day. Millennium has pretty bad capacity these days so that’s not a bad one to get done. TT2 will surely get lines early as everyone heads there first so I’d hold off. So millennium or maybe maverick are two good choices to pick from
To us fast lane is always worth it. With a couple days in the park you’ll definitely be able to ride everything excluding any major downtime. Fast lane would give you a chance to possibly marathon some rides if that’s what you’re into though.
Lmaoooo the disability lines are long most people lie they have disability just so they don’t have to wait in line lol but I like if the line is 2 hrs you have to actually wait 2 hrs to use again so people can’t just finesse
CP or KI? Ive been hearing lot that kings island is better than cp, is is true, or do you think its just a popular opinion and people are just jumping on the bandwagon?
15:44 huh? 2 hours? 3 rides? Top thrill 2? What are you trying to say happened in 2 hours? Really wanted to watch this, but I can’t follow what you are saying.
Found you in line for TT2 around 12:30 in AmusementInsider's - TOP THRILL 2 - Cedar Point - Off Ride View & Area Walkthrough, ua-cam.com/video/fBptVpKYdLQ/v-deo.html
14:04 Huh? Can’t figure out what you are trying to say. Something about lockers? Something about another line? It would help if you gave a better explanation of what you are saying.
so if you think back to the Wild Mouse opening and what a shit show that ride was really for the whole season and compare it to the TT2 opening, I feel like TT2 is going pretty smooth. my question is was Zamperla punking us with Wild Mouse?

I can’t wait for the 2024 season I went in Tuesday for preview day and everything I rode was running great can’t wait to you everything else
Was waiting for this vid! i saw you guys yesterday and at the preview last week too
I was there yesterday it was crazy. Rides kept going down, food venues were slow. There's definitely some kinks to work out.

It sounds like a small amount of people waited the four hours but that was definitely not close to the norm for the day.
I saw you guys taking videos of the top thrill 2 plaza sign
I saw you both yesterday
they opened valravn early on opening day. ride op said they were ready and had the green light to open. we were the very first ride of the season. they opened it at 9:25am
Surprised we didn't see you that day, we seen CP Rundown (you even walked right by him) and a few others.
We don’t know what a lot of people look like so we’d walk by with no clue
They should have added some lateral support to the launch track
I was there too I was there for music in the parks
the people waving behind you guys at 37:05😂
We saw them trying to become famous off of us 😂
I noticed that there isn’t a seatbelt on TT2. Any concerns with that? Love the video!
Not an issue. Of course there’s never anything wrong with redundancy in the safety department. But restraints are designed to fail in the lock position so they are completely safe.
Do you know how the new single use Fastlane kiosks work? I couldn’t figure out how to use them so I just bought them through the app. However you have to buy a paper one from the kiosk for TT2 because you can’t have your phone in line
We assume they work now but didn’t actually see anyone using one.
you can buy a fast lane for just top thrill 2? how much is that?
The park is changing a lot lol
They are getting some more tech
Great video! What kind of phone/camera did you use for the shots at 21:50-ish?
We use an iPhone 15 pro max prores log for a lot of b roll shots. Other than that it’s the 15 with just the hdr and an iPhone 14.
@@BeachcliffStudios thanks for the reply! Looks a lot nicer than my Sony ZV-1 videos. I might have to switch out.
@@MultiverseofMcfly we used to use a panasonic s5 with their s-log which is great but this honestly is just as good. The lack of aperture control on iPhones is the only real downfall.

We’ll let everyone know
@@BeachcliffStudiosThank you. I promise I’ll stop posting on this topic. Your channel is amazing. Thanks for making these awesome vids
I have spent the best vacations of my life at Cedar Point.
So much fun
Are you aloud to ask for the front or back row on their coasters?
You can always ask and usually they’ll do pretty well to accommodate you…most of them at least.
I think it's better to visit here in the summer time than in early season
Can you buy a fast lane at the park or do you have to preorder? Should I worry about fast lane running out for Sunday may 12? I plan on getting a single day fast lane + add on
You can buy in the park at most any gift shop.
Do you happen to know how much single use fast lane is? I am looking at going to Cedar Point May 20 -22. It looks like they are not expecting it to be busy because Fast Lane is at a lower price and hotel prices are pretty affordable.
We don’t know but 20 to $30 each is probably safe to assume
Valravn fast lane line can fool you. It looks long, but you may be seeing the regular line. When you look at the stairs to the loading platform the fastlane line is on the outside.
Fast lane is left and regular is to the right. Coming from blue streak you can see it really well.
I saw me and my friends in the video in the background by the button shop
Hey i saw y’all there
6 more days!!
gotta ask is there single use fast lanes for tt2
Yes
The TT2 locker area seems small. Was there ever a wait or long line just to get a locker?
There was a wait the first time we used them but the second time we walked up with no issue.
It is employee lunch area next to melt
Yeah, so I was thinking maybe they’ll expand that area for them.
I have a question. I'll be going on May 24th and will have a fast lane which will get me one rife on TT2. I also have early entry. I want to ride TT2 at least twice.

I seen my wife,daughter and myself in the waiting like to enter the park
is there a time limit on the TT2 lockers?
Two hours
My mom took me n Woodstock Express.
I plan on going to cedar point cause I have never been there before. What coaster should you think I should ride first?
That’s tough. Not steel vengeance, it’s rarely open by 10am plus it can randomly get short lines during the day. Millennium has pretty bad capacity these days so that’s not a bad one to get done. TT2 will surely get lines early as everyone heads there first so I’d hold off. So millennium or maybe maverick are two good choices to pick from
@@BeachcliffStudios thank you
Did you get to ride Cedar Downs? It's my favorite ride
Unfortunately it was down but we ride it plenty during the year
@BeachcliffStudios
My grampa said Cedar Downs was once by his house where he grew up in Cleveland Ohio.
@@PatrickRyan150 it used to be at Euclid beach park
@BeachcliffStudios
I'm glad it's here now
Thank you for the great fun videos you make too
Blue streak best ride at cedar point
Is fast lane worth it if you’re going to the park for more than day?
To us fast lane is always worth it. With a couple days in the park you’ll definitely be able to ride everything excluding any major downtime. Fast lane would give you a chance to possibly marathon some rides if that’s what you’re into though.
If the handicap lines are long that means they hand out way to many placards
If you have a need for the service you can’t be denied.
How much are single fastpass?
Not sure. It’s dependent on day and how busy it is. Probably 20 to $30 on average.
Raptor guy was probably greasing the track
That could be it
How’s the reliability?
Of what? TT2? If that’s what you’re referring to then it’s pretty good. A couple small delays but nothing major.
Can you ride Top Thrill 2 with sunglasses as long as you have a strap?
I think any glasses with a strap work.
Yes
@@BeachcliffStudios OK. Thanks.
Heh I saw myself in here
Lmaoooo the disability lines are long most people lie they have disability just so they don’t have to wait in line lol but I like if the line is 2 hrs you have to actually wait 2 hrs to use again so people can’t just finesse
We really hope people don’t abuse the system, not fair to those who really need it
Top Thrill 2 opened up just after 9:30am Sunday morning for people.
Nice
CP or KI? Ive been hearing lot that kings island is better than cp, is is true, or do you think its just a popular opinion and people are just jumping on the bandwagon?
CP has better coasters, KI has better ops
Both are fantastic, but we’ll take CP over KI
@@BeachcliffStudios Ok, thats what I think as far as me not having been to either parks
15:44 huh? 2 hours? 3 rides? Top thrill 2? What are you trying to say happened in 2 hours? Really wanted to watch this, but I can’t follow what you are saying.
Thought it was pretty clear, we rode top thrill 2 three times in the two hours that our locker was good for.
I'm worried about you rough comment in the back row for TT2. How can they forget about lines for TT2 not in the midway?? That's CP!
It’s not “rough”. It’s kind of shaky. Lol
it’s not rough at all
Found you in line for TT2 around 12:30 in AmusementInsider's - TOP THRILL 2 - Cedar Point - Off Ride View & Area Walkthrough, ua-cam.com/video/fBptVpKYdLQ/v-deo.html
14:04 Huh? Can’t figure out what you are trying to say. Something about lockers? Something about another line? It would help if you gave a better explanation of what you are saying.
Did you make two comments asking the same thing?
so if you think back to the Wild Mouse opening and what a shit show that ride was really for the whole season and compare it to the TT2 opening, I feel like TT2 is going pretty smooth. my question is was Zamperla punking us with Wild Mouse?
Definitely night and day
I viewed several other vlogs, reviews and they stated the ride (Top Thrill 2) was actually smother, no "shaking"...
It shakes for sure
I saw several YT saying alot of shaking and even showing the mechanics of the ride which causes the shaking.
