The thing that sets Cedar Point apart from most other parks is that they don’t have a 1-2 punch. They have a 1-2-3-4 punch. And then their supporting lineup is pretty solid too
Some might even say a 1-2-3-4-5 punch 😅 I personally don’t think I’ll be a big fan of magnum, but I’m visiting for the first time in a few months, so we’ll see!
One thing people forget about maverick is that it doesn’t have a slow climb, it just shoots you right up. IMO that’s a breath of fresh air compared to every other ride in the park
My son and I wholeheartedly agree with you on Steel Vengeance! We went to Cedar Point for the first time ever in July and had no idea what we were getting into. When we road Steel Vengeance we couldn’t stop saying omg that was amazing!
Looks like The Blue Streak and I have something in common. We were both "made" in 1964 😆 Yes, I'll be 60 next month. Not your typical subscriber huh?? I love Rollercoasters. I had my kids on Rollercoasters as soon as they were tall enough!! Now I'm riding with my grandchildren!! New subscriber as of today 7/30/24. I live in North Carolina. Our vacation in 1998 was to Sandusky, Ohio!! Cedar Point was Amazing!! I have 3 home parks. We are 3 hours from Kings Dominion in Doswell, Virginia and a little over 3 hours is Busch Gardens in Williamsburg, Virginia!! We are 4 hours from Carowinds near Charlotte!! We all love the 3 parks , Busch Gardens being our favorite ❤ Love the video 🌷
CP is my home park. Blue Streak is a lot rougher and the restraints were changed for the worse since you were there. I'm only 5'6" and could barely get my seat belt buckled and my son who is only 8 had a 4" gap between his lap and the belt. I'm never going on it again until it gets a remodel.
First time I went on Steel Vengeance was like my life flashing before my eyes. That first dropping really got me going. I am scared of plummeting 90° drops. But hey. It's like a point where you don't wanna feel safe.
know this is an unpopular opinion, but I really like Raptor and Gemini. They're my favorite roller coasters at Cedar Point. I'm not sure what it is about them, but they're just so much fun to ride. I love the way the track twists and turns, and the way the cars whip around the curves. It's a great feeling, and I always have a smile on my face when I'm on them.
I don't think liking raptor is an unpopular opinion. It is widely regarded as B&Ms best SLC. I do think ranking gatekeeper over raptor is a hot take. heh
I've always loved Blue Streak (and the Big Dipper at the long-since closed Geauga Lake)--well, let me qualify that. Back in when I was 8 ('69) I backed out of riding it at the last second. My younger sister, though, packed tissue in her shoes, and stood as tall and straight as possible to get on. She did and she was beaming. My father shamed me into going on it by telling me (in hungarian) that I was a big chicken. Full of fear I went on it. I got addicted and went on it three or four times. The tradition for a few years upon arriving at CP was always to go on the Pirate Ride first followed by the Blue Streak.
One of my favorite things to do at cedar point when me and my friend to is to ride blue streak over and over and see how much pain we can endure, because that ride beats you up but there’s nothing more fun (magnum does too)
SO REAL about the left back of gatekeeper. I have ridden that ride soo many times and I rode back left a few days ago and it was one of the best times I’ve ridden it
I haven’t been to cedar point since 2014. I used to get season tickets. But unfortunately I’m too overweight to go now. (Working on it) would love to try steel vengeance.
As someone who has been overweight my entire adult life, I finally got my weight down to where I can ride most coasters at the point. But I cannot fit in SV. LOOKING AT IT, I'm okay with that as it's intimidating! Maybe next year after losing at least 20 pounds! 😂 just forwarning. At 5'1 and 215 , I couldn't get the tester restraints tight enough.
millennium force is my favorite, it was the first real roller coaster i had ever rode, previous experiences being at universal studios which has a lot of good ones, but none as intense as cedar point. i am going back in a couple weeks and want to ride the millennium force and steel vengeance
Hopefully I’ll get to go back this year. I went last year but the girl I went with then didn’t want to ride after we arrived at the park, and I didn’t want to ride as a single rider. So, I wasted a lot of money on two day tickets. I’m still extremely disappointed about it.
Here’s how I’d rank all of the coasters at the park that I’ve ridden (including some defunct coasters). I’ll be returning this summer so fingers crossed I can get on TT2. 15. Corkscrew 14. Mean Streak 13. Iron Dragon 12. Blue Streak 11. Gemini 10. Rougarou 9. Valravn 8. Wicked Twister 7. Gatekeeper 6. Magnum 5. Raptor 4. Millennium Force 3. Top Thrill Dragster 2. Maverick 1. Steel Vengeance
nice List.. mine would have to go: 1. Top Thrill Drag (never rode TT2, but the acceleration anddrop was un matched) 2. Millenium Force (that first hill over the lake at night) 3. Steel Vengeance (a strong all round Coaster, but nothing especially jumps out) 4. Maverick (lots of cool twists and turns, but the whiplash hurt's my head sometimes)
Funny! I do agree with this. There's some coasters i haven't been on, but will be on asap! Although, just because its a lower rated, you gotta learn where the new ones came from! It's all a blast!
DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!! I went for the very first time the other day and it was the worst park I've EVER BEEN TOO. Make the drive to a six flags instead.
Just a tip for halloweekends: the lines will be very long, and if you want to knock out every coaster you’ll more than likely need a fast pass. If you’re going again in the near future, try to go in the final week of August. As the school boards nearby are already back, the lines rarely exceed an hour during the middle of the day, and that’s only after a ride experiences downtime
Visited a few weeks ago. The park operations were SO incredibly bad. Every ride broke down while we were in line. Millennium Force and Maverick both broke down and were closed for the day about an hour before park close. And Millennium Force probably had an up time of about half the day with all the break downs (which is brutal given how long those wait times can get). Gemini never opened. Wild Mouse was supposed to open an hour early for pass holders, but didnt open until an hour after normal park hours. With Top Thrill 2 down for who knows how long, the only rides that didn't go down were the B&Ms. And Raptor didn't even open till a few hours into the day. We overhead a ride op say they only had 3 engineers on staff in the park that day, and a lot of the ride delays were that they had too many issues and couldn't get approval to reopen rides once the issues were fixed because the 3 engineers had so much else to worry about. That being said, the ride lineup is undeniable. An incredible lineup. Without a doubt one of the best total coaster portfolios. I think my only disagreement with your list is Raptor. I LOVE B&M inverts. Great Bear at Hershey Park made me realize I loved coasters. I used to marathon Alpengeist with my dad as a kid. But uh... Raptor feels like a car crash. And going into the breaks it both looks and SOUNDS like a car crash. Those restraints usually don't bother me, but on Raptor for once they did. I can see how when it was younger and smoother it could run a little faster and be more intense. But the rattle is so jarring it's hard to enjoy unfortunately
I totally hate Wild Mouse. The restraints push against my chest instead of sitting on the lap, which nearly broke my back on the hairpin turns. At least for me, my upper body needs to be free to move with the laterals, or I risk injury. It might be my bottom ranked coaster I've ever ridden, as it's the only one on my list that nobody could ever get me to ride again. If any more like it get built, I will happily not get that coaster credit. I feel the same as you about Magnum. I also have it at 7, however, I almost put Blue Streak ahead of it after last year's rides. Blue Streak in row 3 was giving amazing airtime. Gatekeeper is elite to me, # 4 ahead of Top Thrill Dragster, so I don't know if TT2 would top it.
For me I'd have to put Corkscrew at the bottom. I don't hate it and would be somewhat sad to see it go, but to me the kiddie/family coasters do what they are supposed to do better than Corkscrew does for it's demographic. I quite enjoy the bumpy nature of the Arrow coasters as they are from a time when everyone that rode a roller coaster, pretty much expected a bumpy ride. Corkscrews seat back are too short and hard (new trains might help, maybe CW Dragon Fyre or Bat could be a donor should the close one of them). Similarly, I would have Blue Streak higher than Valravn and Rougarou, because Blue Streak's only strike is in the ever increasingly restricting trains. While the above mentioned B&M's where computer designed to be smooth-and they fall short. Good list though, I can't rank coasters, but appreciate when someone puts a list together.
ello tommorow im going to ceter poiont so i wanna get your opinion on the hights on the rides please give me all of the hight you have to me to ride all of those rollar costers im 11 years old and im 4 11 i hope anyone knows the hight you have to be =}
just went today and rode 9 coasters in 4 and a half hours with a fastpass plus. walked straight on half of them. my favorite is always millennium force i love the speed and the bends and not going upside down. also really like gatekeeper it feels so smooth and a nice cruise. lastly my sleeper coaster is definitely the iron dragon i like the suspended cart and the ending is super fun. Its a great chill take it easy ride after something psycho like maverick. Ive also always pretty much walked straight on at the iron dragon aswell
My wife and i both work there currently for the season and love it on our days off we go into the park and ride as many rollercoaster we can in a day were both ride operator i work WindSeeker and she works kiddie kingdom i did start in Gemini and loved it and ny wife started at corkscrew
I think you nailed it on the head. My biggest change would be to swap Valravyn for Blue Streak. I am only doing so because I love the jank of a good wooden coaster. It's not as great at The Beast or Timbers (maybe even The Racer) in Ohio, but riding it when the sun goes down and the lights turn on is a solid tradition. It feels like it runs 10 miles faster.
I was at cedar point this weekend and was able to ride every ride (except of course TOP THRILL 2 🤬). A few thoughts: 1) blue streak is still a good coaster: 2) I prefer Maverick over steel vengeance; 3) millennium force front row is simply awesome; 4) corkscrew is pretty much unrideable at this point; 5) wild mouse is overrated; 6) gatekeeper is a great ride and very consistent; 7) valraven is good in the front row and marginal everywhere else; 8) iron dragon is a good ride for kids and people who don’t love extreme rides; 9) Gemini and magnum are on there last legs; 10) raptor is still a solid ride; and 11) it’s time for the mine ride and corkscrew to get torn down.
I went with friends back in 2023 and had my own list of coasters I rode and the seats and car I was in: 1. Steel Vengeance 2-1 2. Millenium Force Row 12 Yellow 3. Maverick Front Row Silver 4. GateKeeper Row 5 Body 5. Rougarou Front Row (The rattle was there, but was better to me than the shorter but more intense rattle I got on my Raptor ride that day) 6. Raptor Row 4 7. Valravn Row 2 8. Iron Dragon Row 11 9. Blue Streak Row 10 10. Magnum XL-200 2-3 (I gave a kid the magic seat and would do so again, but also got my groin crushed by the bunny-hill) 11. Wild Mouse Cheese (Our spin was too much for the entire group even though I recovered from a near black-out quickly. Having a temporary break-down while waiting for the last ride of the night might also contribute to that) 12. Gemini Red 15 Solo (Not racing really set this back while also being pretty rough that day) 13. Corkscrew Row 10 I'll need to get the Mine Ride and Top Thrill 2 the next time I go to get all of the coasters I can ride, and I'd reride everything but Corkscrew and maybe Wild Mouse if I'mnot up to that one. I'm not going out of my way for kiddie coasters though
Are you the one shooting most of this footage? It looks beautiful and really helps to illustrate the scale of these rides which is something most videos dont really get across. Great stuff either way!
I always say Steel Vengeance is like Maverick and Millennium put together. It has the crazy speed and inversions of Maverick and the height of Millennium and I think pretty much anyone who rides it will have it become their favorite
My top 17 in cedar point: 17. Wilderness Run 😐 16. Woodstock express 😐 15. Cedar Creek Mine Ride (enjoyable) 14. Shitscrew 💀 13. Wild mouse 🙂 12. Iron Dragon 🙂 11. Rougarou 🙂 10. Valraven (Very rough to me) 🙂 9. Blue Streak (Go ahead and sue me 😀 8. Gemini 😀 7. Gatekeeper 😀 6. Raptor (yes over gatekeeper) 😃 Honorable mention: Legacy Top Thrill dragster 5. Magnum XL-200 😃 4. Top Thrill 2 😄 3. Millennium Force 🥉 2. Steel Vengeance 🥈 1. Maverick 🥇
My wife is 61 and I'm 64 and love Cedarpoint. My rides them all the coasters and will get right back in line and ride again. I will ride w her on most all the coasters but have not yet braved Steel Vengaence and finally overcame my fear by riding Maverick and Raptor and have rode all the others w her not mentioned.
Ride Steel Vengeance. If you have ridden the Mean Streak you will be blown away by how they turned a turd of a ride into one of the best coasters on the planet.
I wasn't able to get on TT2 due to the closure. But I agree with the rest of the list. Im very tall, so rougarou is more of an enjoyable experience. The wild mouse coaster lap bar doesn't really support my height, so I would switch rougarou and wild mouse. That's just personal preference, though. Steel Vengance is #1
This is my ranking: (Will update as I ride them) (Ps: my favorite part is going upside down) (Going in a week) 1.Maverick 2.Raptor 3.Rougarou 4.Mine Ride 5.Wild Mouse 6.Iron Dragon 7.Gemini 8.Corkscrew 9.Woodstock Express 10.Wilderness Run 11.Bluestreak 12.Magnum XL 200 Ones that I haven’t ridden yet ranked by how much I want to ride them: 1.Gatekeeper 2.Steel Vengeance 3.Valravn 4.Millenium Force 5. Top Thrill Dragster 2
How I would rank every coaster including dragster and wicked twister (haven't ridden top thrill 2 but I'm guessing it would rank 2-3) 1 Steel Vengeance 2 Maverick 3 Millennium Force 4 Magnum 5 Raptor 6 Valravn 7 Top Thrill Dragster 8 Gatekeeper 9 Gemini 10 Rougarou 11 Wicked Twister 12 Blue Streak 13 Wild Mouse 14 Iron Dragon 15 Corkscrew 16 Woodstock Express 17 Cedar Creek Mine Ride 18 Wilderness Run
Spot on - my list is very similar, just switch Corkscrew and Mine Ride, Rougarou and Wild Mouse, and Raptor and Gatekeeper. I need to ride TT2 on the same day as Millennium Force to get a better feel, but for now I have TT2 at #4, the rest of the top 4 same as yours. And a side note, I have exactly the same problem with the cars on Mine Ride.
The trick about Wild Mouse is that you MUST sit unbalanced in the train. If you have two people, sit on one side. Fat people? Sit next to them on one side.
I recently returned to CP after MANY years thinking that Maverick could be my number 1 in the park. Maybe I hyped it up too much or got a bad ride but I have it at 5. I got a ride in the magic seat on Magnum XL and it is my number two behind SteVe. TT2 at 3 and Milli at 4. Again maybe I got a bad ride but I much prefer Sheikra or Griffon to Valravn .
My Cedar point ranking 1 Top thrill 2 2 Steel vengeance 3 Maverick 4 Millennium force 5 Gate keeper 6 raptor 7 valravn 8 magnum 9 rougarou 11 Iron dragon 12 Gemini 13 wild mouse 14 blue streak 15 Corkscrew 16 Cedar creek mine ride
I thought I’d never ride a roller coaster In my life, I was terrified for years, now here I am, the night beofre going to cedar point with full intent to get if millennium force and steel vengeance!
unpopular opinion: I liked rougarou a lot more than I anticipated.. it’s actually one of my favorite flourless coasters I’ve ridden. To the contrary, magnum was absolutely too rough for me.. rougher than corkscrew in my experience
I unfortunately haven’t ridden any top thrill or wilderness run, but here’s my list. 15. Woodstock Express 14. Corkscrew 13. Iron Dragon 12. Cedar Creek Mine Ride 11. Wild Mouse 10. Rougarou 9. Gemini 8. Valravn 7. Gatekeeper 6. Raptor 5. Blue Streak (hot take) 4. Millennium Force 3. Magnum XL-200 2. Maverick 1. Steel Vengeance
My list 1. Steel vengeance 2. Millennium force 3. Maverick 4. Raptor 5. TT2 6. Gatekeeper 7. Blue streak 8. Valravn 9. Iron dragon 10. Wild mouse 11. Cedar creek mine ride 12. Gemini 13. Rougarou 14. Magnum 15. Corkscrew
Gatekeeper is the smoothest ride there. Idk what rattle you’re talking about lol. Rougarou isn’t as head banging if you position yourself correctly. Personally I find that ride better than Valravn. I think Valravn is honestly boring. Dive coasters are not fun at all especially with all the forced trim break after the first drop
Steel Vengance is SOOOOOOOOOOOOO good!! the only thing I hate about it is when your waiting in line for it, if you know where you can actually see the ride kind of move a lot, If you don't know what I'm talking about. I'm talking about the part of the ride when your waiting in line very close to the ride in that opening you can see the ride wood shift ALOT it gives me jitters every time I see it!
I totally get what you mean by those last 4! The best ride at cedar point really depends on what you like! Do you like high intensity? Speed? Air time? Force? Out of control whipping around? Launches? Drops? Quick turns? It all depends on what you like! For me it’s definitely Millennium Force. I love air time and fast, straight bits. It’s just so good. (I also haven’t ridden Top Thrill 2 or Maverick but I plan to when I go)
Maverick is the goat. The 90 degree whipped bank turn thing is sick and the first drop is unique. + the launches are better than old top thrill in my opinion
Maverick will always be my goat. 1. Maverick 2. Steel Vengeance 3. Raptor The others don’t come close to these imo but they are all consistently fun and whenever i go i ride all except rougaru since its ass
I will NOT tolerate Pipe Scream slander. I chose not to watch after that, as this set the tone that everything afterwards would be... a waste of my time
The thing that sets Cedar Point apart from most other parks is that they don’t have a 1-2 punch. They have a 1-2-3-4 punch. And then their supporting lineup is pretty solid too
Some might even say a 1-2-3-4-5 punch 😅
I personally don’t think I’ll be a big fan of magnum, but I’m visiting for the first time in a few months, so we’ll see!
They just have an insane lineup in general. If gatekeeper or magnum were at other parks they would be probably the star attractions
I think only Hersheypark has a comparable 1-2-3
They definitely have the best top 5 of any park and the supporting lineup isn't just "solid" its great especially the B&Ms
Pretty solid is an understatement, they have the best supporting cast in the world
One thing people forget about maverick is that it doesn’t have a slow climb, it just shoots you right up. IMO that’s a breath of fresh air compared to every other ride in the park
It also means more of the ride time is thrill and speed !
@@KIIB0the ride is very exciting!
The thing that truly strikes the most fear in my heart at Cedar Point is riding the side of the Power Tower that shoots you into the sky at nighttime.
My son and I wholeheartedly agree with you on Steel Vengeance! We went to Cedar Point for the first time ever in July and had no idea what we were getting into. When we road Steel Vengeance we couldn’t stop saying omg that was amazing!

Someone finally agrees with me, it's the "not safe" feeling that makes it fun.
Yep. It makes it all the better :)

@@agoo7581 This. I'm from Ohio and it definitely has a lot of nostalgia attached to it from the 90s, but most people LOVE Raptor.

@@PRINGLE97 nothing, it’s a good ride. Just not as good or thrilling as the others iMO.
TT2 is indefinitely shut down already. And it not even been open for 3 months. This park is a giant steamy clown shoe

1. Top Thrill Drag (never rode TT2, but the acceleration anddrop was un matched)

Top thrill 2 had the most insane 8 day run of any coaster in history… it will be missed.
Can't wait for top thrill 2 2
🤣
I’m 27 and have never been able to go until this year for Halloweekends (9/29)!! So excited!!

As long as you are over 54inches (which you are) you will be able to ride everything in the park. have fun!
just went today and rode 9 coasters in 4 and a half hours with a fastpass plus. walked straight on half of them. my favorite is always millennium force i love the speed and the bends and not going upside down. also really like gatekeeper it feels so smooth and a nice cruise. lastly my sleeper coaster is definitely the iron dragon i like the suspended cart and the ending is super fun. Its a great chill take it easy ride after something psycho like maverick. Ive also always pretty much walked straight on at the iron dragon aswell
this coaster was my favorite and it was my second thrill ride of my first trip which happened yesterday
and its awesome
My wife and i both work there currently for the season and love it on our days off we go into the park and ride as many rollercoaster we can in a day were both ride operator i work WindSeeker and she works kiddie kingdom i did start in Gemini and loved it and ny wife started at corkscrew
I think you nailed it on the head. My biggest change would be to swap Valravyn for Blue Streak. I am only doing so because I love the jank of a good wooden coaster. It's not as great at The Beast or Timbers (maybe even The Racer) in Ohio, but riding it when the sun goes down and the lights turn on is a solid tradition. It feels like it runs 10 miles faster.
I was at cedar point this weekend and was able to ride every ride (except of course TOP THRILL 2 🤬). A few thoughts: 1) blue streak is still a good coaster: 2) I prefer Maverick over steel vengeance; 3) millennium force front row is simply awesome; 4) corkscrew is pretty much unrideable at this point; 5) wild mouse is overrated; 6) gatekeeper is a great ride and very consistent; 7) valraven is good in the front row and marginal everywhere else; 8) iron dragon is a good ride for kids and people who don’t love extreme rides; 9) Gemini and magnum are on there last legs; 10) raptor is still a solid ride; and 11) it’s time for the mine ride and corkscrew to get torn down.
Overall, I agree with your statement 👍🏻
Wild Mouse - I highly recommend riding this coaster with your eyes closed. Its crazy there are times where you almost feel like you go upside down.
I don't know but I love gatekeeper
I went with friends back in 2023 and had my own list of coasters I rode and the seats and car I was in:
1. Steel Vengeance 2-1
2. Millenium Force Row 12 Yellow
3. Maverick Front Row Silver
4. GateKeeper Row 5 Body
5. Rougarou Front Row (The rattle was there, but was better to me than the shorter but more intense rattle I got on my Raptor ride that day)
6. Raptor Row 4
7. Valravn Row 2
8. Iron Dragon Row 11
9. Blue Streak Row 10
10. Magnum XL-200 2-3 (I gave a kid the magic seat and would do so again, but also got my groin crushed by the bunny-hill)
11. Wild Mouse Cheese (Our spin was too much for the entire group even though I recovered from a near black-out quickly. Having a temporary break-down while waiting for the last ride of the night might also contribute to that)
12. Gemini Red 15 Solo (Not racing really set this back while also being pretty rough that day)
13. Corkscrew Row 10
I'll need to get the Mine Ride and Top Thrill 2 the next time I go to get all of the coasters I can ride, and I'd reride everything but Corkscrew and maybe Wild Mouse if I'mnot up to that one. I'm not going out of my way for kiddie coasters though
Are you the one shooting most of this footage? It looks beautiful and really helps to illustrate the scale of these rides which is something most videos dont really get across. Great stuff either way!
1. Steel Vengeance
2. Maverick
3. TT2
4. Millilim Force
I love millilim force!
Solid ranking
The exact ranking I have!
If you are a big Rollercoaster fan you HAVE to go on steel vengeance it is by far the best ride there
I always say Steel Vengeance is like Maverick and Millennium put together. It has the crazy speed and inversions of Maverick and the height of Millennium and I think pretty much anyone who rides it will have it become their favorite
My top 17 in cedar point:
17. Wilderness Run 😐
16. Woodstock express 😐
15. Cedar Creek Mine Ride (enjoyable)
14. Shitscrew 💀
13. Wild mouse 🙂
12. Iron Dragon 🙂
11. Rougarou 🙂
10. Valraven (Very rough to me) 🙂
9. Blue Streak (Go ahead and sue me 😀
8. Gemini 😀
7. Gatekeeper 😀
6. Raptor (yes over gatekeeper) 😃
Honorable mention: Legacy Top Thrill dragster
5. Magnum XL-200 😃
4. Top Thrill 2 😄
3. Millennium Force 🥉
2. Steel Vengeance 🥈
1. Maverick 🥇
Swap raptor and millenium and its a perfect list
The beef between the red and blue carts on gemini was crazy when I went on it
I’ve been stuck on blue streak twice 😅 good times but dang be careful
My top 5 at Cedar Point is.
#1 Steel Vengeance.
#2 Top Thrill 2.
#3 Maverick.
#4 Millennium Force.
#5 Magnum XL 200
BRO MAGNUM SUCKS same thing accept idk top thrill 2 and Valravn is 5 for me
My wife is 61 and I'm 64 and love Cedarpoint. My rides them all the coasters and will get right back in line and ride again. I will ride w her on most all the coasters but have not yet braved Steel Vengaence and finally overcame my fear by riding Maverick and Raptor and have rode all the others w her not mentioned.
Ride Steel Vengeance. If you have ridden the Mean Streak you will be blown away by how they turned a turd of a ride into one of the best coasters on the planet.
Isn’t Woodstock express the universal Woody woodpecker coaster
I was just at cedar point yesterday
Same
I wasn't able to get on TT2 due to the closure. But I agree with the rest of the list. Im very tall, so rougarou is more of an enjoyable experience. The wild mouse coaster lap bar doesn't really support my height, so I would switch rougarou and wild mouse. That's just personal preference, though. Steel Vengance is #1
Even though I’ve watched 9 of these rankings I’m not gonna stop anytime soon.
I always found it funny that there are no other places quite like cedar point. I grew up around there so this was always just my norm
This is my ranking:
(Will update as I ride them)
(Ps: my favorite part is going upside down)

Top Thrill 2 gets my #17 ranking as it was down for the entire summer with the exception of the first few weekends in May.

15 Corkscrew
16 Woodstock Express
17 Cedar Creek Mine Ride
18 Wilderness Run
Fun fact if you’re in the right position you’ll see velravin spelling ohio for where it’s located in Ohio
Spot on - my list is very similar, just switch Corkscrew and Mine Ride, Rougarou and Wild Mouse, and Raptor and Gatekeeper. I need to ride TT2 on the same day as Millennium Force to get a better feel, but for now I have TT2 at #4, the rest of the top 4 same as yours. And a side note, I have exactly the same problem with the cars on Mine Ride.
Yeah those cars are too small. Maybe that can be their next refurb project
Where is power tower?
GianniPellittier-gi4n that is not a roller coaster
Yep....rode Steel Vengeance and it's as incredible as hyped up. Just a masterpiece.
The trick about Wild Mouse is that you MUST sit unbalanced in the train. If you have two people, sit on one side. Fat people? Sit next to them on one side.
I've seen this coaster get some nice spin too!
I recently returned to CP after MANY years thinking that Maverick could be my number 1 in the park. Maybe I hyped it up too much or got a bad ride but I have it at 5. I got a ride in the magic seat on Magnum XL and it is my number two behind SteVe. TT2 at 3 and Milli at 4. Again maybe I got a bad ride but I much prefer Sheikra or Griffon to Valravn .
SheiKra and Griffon are definitely better than Valravn
My Cedar point ranking
1 Top thrill 2

7 valravn
8 magnum
9 rougarou
11 Iron dragon
12 Gemini

15 Corkscrew
16 Cedar creek mine ride
I thought I’d never ride a roller coaster In my life, I was terrified for years, now here I am, the night beofre going to cedar point with full intent to get if millennium force and steel vengeance!
The number 1 thing on my bucket list is going to cedar point.
1 reason I wouldn’t get on the top 4 roller coaster you said is because I truly dislike the air time feeling
I would put Pipe Scream right above Cedar Creek Mine Ride :)
It is a coaster, confirmed by Zamperla. rcdb is wrong...again.
My top 3:
1. Top Thrill 2
2. Millennium Force
3. Magnum XL 200
Steel vengeance not even being on this list is a crime
@@snipertrader67fr
@@snipertrader67same with maverick
unpopular opinion: I liked rougarou a lot more than I anticipated.. it’s actually one of my favorite flourless coasters I’ve ridden. To the contrary, magnum was absolutely too rough for me.. rougher than corkscrew in my experience
magnum has gotten much rougher over the years but I still think Rougarou is the roughest ride there still ever since it was no longer the mantis
Yeah ,I agree. I don’t know why it gets so much hate.
Head Banging
I unfortunately haven’t ridden any top thrill or wilderness run, but here’s my list.
15. Woodstock Express
14. Corkscrew
13. Iron Dragon
12. Cedar Creek Mine Ride
11. Wild Mouse
10. Rougarou
9. Gemini
8. Valravn
7. Gatekeeper
6. Raptor
5. Blue Streak (hot take)
4. Millennium Force
3. Magnum XL-200
2. Maverick
1. Steel Vengeance
Honestly on your list wilderness run would probably rank on the bottom and top thrill at number 3 or 4.
@@Thelightning1out nah I love magnum
My list 1. Steel vengeance 2. Millennium force 3. Maverick 4. Raptor 5. TT2 6. Gatekeeper 7. Blue streak 8. Valravn 9. Iron dragon 10. Wild mouse 11. Cedar creek mine ride 12. Gemini 13. Rougarou 14. Magnum 15. Corkscrew
Gatekeeper is the smoothest ride there. Idk what rattle you’re talking about lol. Rougarou isn’t as head banging if you position yourself correctly. Personally I find that ride better than Valravn. I think Valravn is honestly boring. Dive coasters are not fun at all especially with all the forced trim break after the first drop
Rougarou is 15 for me my harness came loose in the loop😅
Steel Vengance is SOOOOOOOOOOOOO good!! the only thing I hate about it is when your waiting in line for it, if you know where you can actually see the ride kind of move a lot, If you don't know what I'm talking about. I'm talking about the part of the ride when your waiting in line very close to the ride in that opening you can see the ride wood shift ALOT it gives me jitters every time I see it!
Went there first time last week!
Maverick was more amazing than expected, magnum was absolutely horrible though.
For me my top 3 are
1. Millennium Force
2. Raptor
3. Top Thrill (haven't had a chance to ride 2 yet!)
I’d argue magnum is just as big of a dumpster fire
I hate magnum
@@Stp-Bigsby me too it’s beyond rough and needs to be toppled over into lake erie
It’s kinda rough now I just recently went and I love it it’s just rough
@@SLaYdOg-n3d same but it’s too rough for my likings
@@Stp-Bigsbythat’s fair but the roughness is why I like it, the triangle hills are fun
I went on the wile mouse and it was so fun
My favorite is Maverick since I haven’t ridden Steel Vengeance yet
Valravn my fav!🤩
I TOTALLY agree that Corkscrew is a dumpster fire. It's super painful. I'm not a big fan of Rougarou either. Mantis was a way better ride.
I totally get what you mean by those last 4! The best ride at cedar point really depends on what you like! Do you like high intensity? Speed? Air time? Force? Out of control whipping around? Launches? Drops? Quick turns? It all depends on what you like! For me it’s definitely Millennium Force. I love air time and fast, straight bits. It’s just so good. (I also haven’t ridden Top Thrill 2 or Maverick but I plan to when I go)
Maverick is the goat. The 90 degree whipped bank turn thing is sick and the first drop is unique. + the launches are better than old top thrill in my opinion
I like how Magnum XL 200 rearranged my spine and legs
Now that top thrill two is open
Zamperla: 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
My brother, the very back seat of Magnum is the best seat in the park.
11:05 🤨
steel vengance is a pain in the neck with the metal detectors and the putting everything in a locker
1:45 oh my lord my sisters love this
Maverick will always be my goat.
1. Maverick
2. Steel Vengeance
3. Raptor
The others don’t come close to these imo but they are all consistently fun and whenever i go i ride all except rougaru since its ass
Maverick is my fav !
I wouldn't call corkscrew a dumpster fire. I would call it old.
Millinion force is my favorite
I will NOT tolerate Pipe Scream slander. I chose not to watch after that, as this set the tone that everything afterwards would be... a waste of my time
Ppl going this year
👇
I’m sorry, but complaining about rattle? The rattle is why I prefer woodies.
They need to get rid or crow-screwed just keep the crow screwed over the walk way
maverick was my first thrill ride
Bro I love corkscrew 😭😭
My favorites are Gemini blue streak and iron dragon 🤷
My favorite ride is Magnum XL
Gatekeeper at #5 is crazy.
Cedar point is a nice place to go. I live a hour away.
It makes me sad that he didn’t mention that if you look at the valravin in a good spot it spells ohio
8:41 once I saw taht drop I regretted goin on it😭
I love Iron Dragon, for nostalgia reasons.
