My first visit ever to cedar point was in 2014 I was 13 yrs old if I’m remembering correctly it was gatekeepers opening year. I remember my first time on dragster very back row such a amazing experience you never will forget your first visit to cedar point! I’m so excited to ride top thrill 2 I don’t think I rode dragster since the year before it closed only if I knew that was gonna happen I would have ridden so many more times. Love calling this my home park.. even tho I’m in Michigan but Detroit will always be closer to Sandusky than Muskegon lol. But I am gonna also have to check out Michigan’s adventure new addition. (A new pathway by sea dragon) 😮💀 just what we needed. Off topic but they should have sent wicked twister to Michigan’s adventure.
Chain Lift is back!
Hopefully!
We're so busy all the time! 😭
Everything looks so clean
Thank you for this!
You're welcome! Thank you for watching!
there's no space to put lockers at the end of the line. how are they going to update it next season?
Can you do the same thing if you go back but for the fast lane queue?
May be a silly question, but…my biggest question is how do you pay for onride photo without a wallet since your wallet is at the other end of the coaster 🤣
Ha! Fair question. On Media Day, the photos were in the same place they were with TTD. We saw that small building with the Top Thrill 2 Photos sign, closer to the lockers. Maybe when park is operating normally, they'll have it moved over there. 🤷♂️
So a question for anyone who has been up there, how long do you estimate the wait would be in the regular que after you pass through the metal detector? I thought the old dragster had alot more switchbacks in the que and i can remember waiting hours for it and they still had empty que switchbacks that were not in use
I believe I overheard at media day that the queue past the metal detectors is approximately an 1-1/2 hour wait. I expect a lot of overflow out onto the midway this summer for the queue.
Hoping they add some graphics on that left side wall. Very empty right now, like a blank canvas.
I thought the same thing.
It's very bland in there. It feels like you're in a cage almost. Cedar Point could definitely spruce it up a bit and make it more visually appealing.
They could add some racing pics/graphics on the wall & some TT2 or CP Racing logos.
I am going to be at Cedar Point on May 23rd until May 24th
Have a great time! Enjoy TT2!
I remember waiting 3.5 hours for top thrill and then it broke down when I was only a couple people away from getting on and was shut down the rest of the weekend
Ah, bummer! Hate when that happens. We had a similar experience when Gatekeeper opened. Waited 3 hours to ride and it broke down for the day when we were next to ride.
We knew they would add all kinds of coverings and safety fencing this time to keep another train part from flying off and hitting someone in line from getting hit again. And I don’t know why they made the new wall inside the station solid so can’t see through it. Should have been wire mesh so those on the platform can watch the trains fly through on the other side.
The normal like did not look like it had many switch backs which could be a problem. Why they didn’t mount the fans to the covering. Is just poor planning
Where are the metal detectors located?
At the entrance of the tunnel, underneath the launch.
They fact that there is no theming in the queue, or in the station and the fact that they just added a spike and nothing else of significance and expense to the original layout gives me reason to believe this was a cheap distraction and there will be something bigger coming. I mean come on, we saw Iron Menace just open with its amazing theming. That is Dorney park which never gets investments. This is CEDAR POINT were talking about. Cedar fairs favorite child, the roller coaster capital of the world. Theres no way that this and wild mouse is what will hold us off for another 5 years. I really think something big is on the way for this park very soon. Great vid by the way! Extremely smart because if there is no items in the queue, you won't be able do this when it opens to the public.
Research before you make a statement bud. The main plaza and everything got revamped, with new signs, and theming. There is actual music playing in the area, there is a new sign next to your launch. I really recommend searching TT2 Media Day up, you will really see how great the area looks. The only thing I do agree with you is how kind of plain the queue looks like, wish it got more theming like the whole area did.
I think the roller coaster itself is pretty good, first good roller coaster from Zamperla. Hope to ride it on opening day.
@@OfficialEthanStillCodes They really couldn't go overboard with theming because the CP Racing theme doesn't make sense. There is no racing involved.
@@CaptureKing247 I don’t really focus on the roller coaster much for the theming, as it doesn’t make sense. Overall, I do like the theming around it.
@@OfficialEthanStillCodes I know, it still doesn't compare to other new cedar fair coasters though. Ill see more for myself soon, but as far as I see, it doesn't stack up to like iron menace or Zambezi's theming. I know about the plaza, that looks cool, it just does not seem to be the major new coaster that cedar point needs next. Thats just my opinion though. I already have seen 2 media day vlogs.
CP did a great job with this from all the things I have seen with media day pics, videos, etc... Next CP project should be the island. Ideally make it a new themed area like they did with Aeronautical Landing at Carowinds.
That’s definitely a cool idea. However I think they will continue the theme of updating midways and areas. Gatekeeper had the entrance updated, Steel Vengeance got Frontiertown looking great again, Valravn had marina gate fixed up, then you had the wicked twister area turned into the boardwalk and the dragster midway looking better. I think next we will see the main midway or frontier trail given a renovation.
@@SS-xs1tg Millenium Midway needs a revamp, as well as TT2 midway has space with the relocated flat rides to the Boardwalk. Eventually both will be revamped. However, the Island is just a massive space & has much more grand possibilities, that has been CF's style lately. ...Camp Snoop Island. Move all the kids stuff from the Boardwalk to there & connect it to the other kids stuff by Woodstock Express, etc..
I LOVE IT. BUT I MISS DRAGSTER 😢 I know it’s gonna be fun but tbh I’m gonna be a bit hard on it cause how good dragster was. Im just gonna miss the old days but I can only imagine cedar point in 10 year time. This feels unreal tbh a coaster that goes over 400 feet and launches 3 times backwards and a spike hard to believe even when standing in front of it 😂
It's got decent shade. Especially once the trees grow in a little. I never minded the long walk. I definitely do not like the idea of no phones or even glasses. Crap like that should be allowed put into a small locker just before station. Or a secure system of bins. Just insane. I mean, I'm hard pressed to be able to open my eyes beyond a squint without my sunglasses most days. Add in no phone, which isn't the end of the world, but kind of feels like "what? Why?" kind of thing. It's not like they couldn't have worked in a double sided locker system. Their over zealous in safety seems to really hurt the rides original aesthetic. I mean, I know safety is important, and an incident did happen, but still. Not really something you can call them out for without looking like a dick but at the sametime, I just think back to the world when I was a kid... and it didn't feel much more dangerous.
Hopefully it reopens soon.
Best way to cheat those stupid $20 locker cash cow payments is to get a crossbody and wear it under your T-shirt. No one hassles you and it works every time.
queue needs theming!
It's very narrow and unappealing. Everything is sort of walled off, too. Hard to see much, expect the spike and top hat. Some bright color signs could go a long way in there, lol.
It looks and feels claustrophobic....
It's definitely narrow and uninspiring, lol. I could see how people could be claustrophobic in there, potentially.
Your allowed to wear glasses just has to have athletic strap
Yeah, that’s correct! Should’ve clarified that better in the video 👍
