The Ohio Park Showdown - Cedar Point vs Kings Island
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 вер 2024
- In this video, you'll figure out which park is better, Kings Island or Cedar Point. I'll compare each park's roller coasters, flat rides, dark rides, and much more. Both parks have some amazing rides such as Banshee, Steel Vengeance, Raptor, Millenium Force, Diamondback, Mystic Timbers, and Maverick. This battle is sure to be a close one so watch until the end to find out which park, Cedar Point or Kings Island, is the best amusement park in Ohio.
This is a tough one. When I visited both parks in 2015, I actually preferred Kings Island more. But when I returned to Cedar Point again in 2017, I liked that place even more. I am returning to Kings Island this summer, so I'll have to return to Cedar Point shortly after and decide again.
It’s similar with me. I wasn’t impressed with Kings Island in 2019 and my memories of Cedar Point then aren’t great so I want to revisit Cedar Point. But, I didn’t realize until making the video that both parks aren’t too different.
Both are amazing.❤
True
CP has 5 coasters that have at one point, or still are, in popular contention for top 10 in the world, as well as being a living, rideable history museum of coasters.
I think objective rankings don't really capture what makes CP a coaster mecca, but acknowledging its problems is important.
Cedar point can handle busy days. It has so many coasters. Kings Island's top 2 rides are arguably better than anything at cedar point outside the dragster and steel vengeance, but you can usually ride Gemini and magnum all day. Kings Island feels like the part of cedar point you've never been at. Really cool, it's just smaller.
What do you mean by Kings Island is the part of Cedar Point you've never been at?
@@Southeastern_Thrillsit feels like an alternate reality of cedar point, as if there's just more to the back of the park that you never went to in the first place.
@@antonioguglielmetti2661 I guess? 🤔
@@Southeastern_ThrillsI am way more familiar with cedar point so everything I go to is compared to it. Biggest ones I have been to were Dollywood and kings Island and kings Island was more Cedar point ish
@@antonioguglielmetti2661 True
I love both parks there both amazing!
Yeah, but Cedar Point is so much better in my opinion.
How can you give both parks unique flat rides for the same thing?
Cedar Point has Skyhawk and both parks drop towers are different.
Delirium/ MaXair, WindSeeker/WindSeeker???
5:50 I don't think you know the definition of a lake.
Yep, Iron Dragon is located on a lake.
@@Southeastern_Thrills It's a lagoon.
@@TommonSensePro Ok, it's called Cedar Point Lake though.
My personal favorite out of these two is King’s Island (that’s probably because Cedar Point is my home park so I’m more used to everything their than the stuff at King’s Island) I really like the theming and rides at KI better. But I still LOVE CP and can’t wait to go this summer/Halloween
I won’t get back to both parks in a while, but I’m excited to see what Cedar Point does with Top Thrill Dragster
1:41 Its a creek...hence the name.
Ok
"Koshers"
diamondbacks water ending is also sick!
Yeah, I wish it was next to a path so you can get soaked.
I have been on most of these koshers!
😂👍
The walk to The Bat is approximately 780'. The switchbacks on Banshee are approximately 1,350'.
Wow, it's still a long walk though.
You are assuming you will go through all the switchbacks on Banshee.
Cedar point has like 12 record setting rides all in the same park, and only beaten years later by small margins at other parks dispersed around the world. Almost all of their coasters have been "state of the art" through the last 40 plus years, and its all in one location! He didn't even mention Top Thrill Dragster, which they added to this year 2. The only point of this video for me is to see what KI has, bc i haven't been there in 40 years. Luckily i had Geauga lake as a close backup, so i never needed to make the huge trip to KI, which is clearly still inferior.
True, also Kings Island has improved mighty over the past 20 years.
If you rode the Beast last year, it would be at least up to 2 points, KI also has Winterfest, both parks are great though.
You’re probably right, but idk
As much as I want to make it 4 for Cedar Point
I want to visit Kings Island for the first time ever
Make what 4 for Cedar Point?
@@Southeastern_Thrills 4th Visit
@@NASCARFAN93100 Ok, nice
why do you keep calling the coasters.....Koshers???? Are they blessed? have to turn off... they are NOT KOSHERS!!!!!!
It’s the way I talk
You talk wrong. @@Southeastern_Thrills
Cedar point is better when it comes to coaster lineup but I prefer kings island in basically every other category (I personally think kings Island is the best park ever)
What are your reasons cause all I see Kings Island as is a solid, well rounded amusement park that doesn't really have anything special about it.
@southeasternthrills well d
The main thing I love about kings island is the operations for me their the best of any park also I think the coaster lineup is underrated
CP is more of a “Beach Resort” park with a Amusement Park in the middle. Kings Island is more of a Amusement Park with a Water Park added. I like KI best !
I always thought of Cedar Point as an amusement park with a beach attached, but it makes sense both ways
@@Southeastern_Thrills Well you got the Marina on the West side, cabins and the Water Park and parking lots on the North. Then the Hotel buildings and Boardwalk and Beach all along the East side. The main parking lot on the South side. Amusement park just in the middle…..with more and more restaurants.
@@MrHaaspaul 👍 I just always thought of Cedar Point as an amusement park first and foremost
KI has had better Ride Ops the last few years and better all around park functionality. I give them that. I love KI but as a whole including Coaster line-up The atmosphere, restaurants, the Resort Style Amusement Park that Cedar Point had become is on a whole different level, But it has to be ran and operated correctly or it's all for nothing. The new Boardwalk area the new Pavilion and the new wild mouse coupled with whatever the new Re-imagined TTD will be in 2024 has Cedar Point in place to clearly take back the crown of best Amusement in the USA 💯 Kings Island, Magic Mountain, Hershey Park & Universal OrL round out my top 4 in the country
12:02 what the heck was that?
I just swallowed. Never realized the mic picked that up.
😱
cedar point has the better coaster lineup, but I prefer kings island
Respectable
@@Southeastern_Thrills nice
What do you prefer about Kings Island?
@@Southeastern_Thrills I adore the eiffell tower, and as a kid myself, and a coaster enthusiast, I appreciate the kids section. Besides, better ride ops there, maybe im just lucky tho
@@AdrenalineLegends Makes sense
Easy answer...both
True, but I made this video for people who can't afford both.
Cedar Point blows kings island out of the water. A lot of kings islands lineup is insanely overrated
100% agree
Not the main reason I love kings Island so much I would even agree that diamondback and the beast are the two most overrated coasters from their manufacturers
Randy West Have a Cedar Fair Entertainment Company Parks Platinum Pass Passholder / Cedar Point Season Pass Passholder Since 2003 in Sandusky, Ohio USA 🇺🇲 and Randy West My Home Amusement Park it's Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio USA 🇺🇲 and Randy West Love Both Amusement Parks in State of Ohio Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio USA 🇺🇲 and Kings Island in Mason, Ohio USA 🇺🇲.
I like it when you say "koshers". I don't know why everyone is so mad. With that aside, great video!
I never thought I said coasters like that
kings island is better
I love both!
boo blasters aways dose that
Good to know, same thing happened to me on Men in Black Alien Attack.
C-O-A-S-T-E-R..... IT'S A ROLLER COASTER WITH A T... IT'S NOT KOSHER LIKE MEAT. ITS COASTER!!!! I HAD TO SAY SOMETHING THIS IS A PRETTY GOOD VIDEO BUT IF YOU'RE GOING TO SPEAK TO THE PUBLIC YOU HAVE TO DO BETTER
Sorry, calm down. You’re taking that a little too far
@@Southeastern_Thrills no offense it's constructive criticism. Comes with the territory. If you want to be coddled and your hyper sensitive your IN THE WRONG PLACE MY FRIEND! I said it was a pretty good video there is some potential but if you can't take FACTUAL critiques like the one I gave you You mine as well stop now. I did not go to far at all I was Not insulting or offensive. It's constructive criticism with the hopes you would realize that and make the adjustment. Your choice
Thanks, I figured that. I don’t take small complaints like that too seriously.
@@Southeastern_Thrills i had to go to speech classes for years when I was young and you sound pretty young so that might be another reason why I spoke so freely about it. Just keep working at it and you'll be fine
