- Kerney-cation was invitied by Cedar Point to attend the media day announcement for Top Thrill 2! This attraction is being re-themed by Zamperla to create the first triple LSM launched Strata coaster!
We were able to catch up with Adam Sandy from Zamperla and Tony Clark from Cedar Point and check out some of the awesome merchandise available now for Top Thrill 2.
We also had the opportunity go behind the wall to check on the construction progress and witness the first support for the spike to be placed. Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoy this real family vacation!

Excellent coverage!!
For those of you who are unfamiliar, a block zone is a section of ride that only one train may occupy. At the end of a block zone is a method to stop the train in case the block zone ahead is still occupied.
This is the safety system that prevents roller coaster trains from colliding with one another. In case you were unaware ❤
@@OofThatsNice😂😂😂
Thanks so much! Coming from you, it means a lot! Really appreciate the comment and the share. You have a great channel, content, and community.
I like how respectful you were with Tony and Andy. I can’t believe how entitled and rude some of the other “media” can sometimes be with those guys.
Thanks for watching! Yes, I am super appreciative to have been invited, and I am never one to throw shade. I think Cedar Point is doing great things and looking towards the future! Can’t wait until 2024!
I can't believe how poorly some people in the enthusiast community treat these people. It is so cringe worthy and makes me feel embarrassed to be a part of the community. These interviews on the other-hand were excellent and very informative. Thanks so much for the great video! This is more of exactly what we need!
@@ThomasLilliswho where the bad people? I watched this one stream where the guy thought he was being so funny and clearly pissing off the cedar point representatives.
Agreed! I watch that video of that "enthusiasts" and he was being rude AF and shift blamed it on Tony for being "crabby", when he was called out on it.
We're entitled to our own opinions
It feels like an ode to Wicked Twister ❤
I thought the same thing! It’s like a mix of TTD and Wicked Twister!
@@kerney-cation I love it and quite frankly it’s genius and makes sense!
If they had twisted the back spike, then I'd agree.
But this is a swing launch, the only way to get a train this big over that top hat.
But no twist, no real relation. It's closer to the new swing launch rides like Pantheon.
I agree it does feel a bit like WT!
Great interviews! I'm really excited about this ride! I love the colors and concept. Really everything! Cool you got to sign it as well!
The event was a lot of fun! It was awesome to be apart of cedar point history too and sign the base ! I can’t wait for next year to ride it too!
Tony’s facial expression here is golden, 😂
7:42 “oh here we go…”
7:48 “oh ok that’s alright”
Lol I think your so right! I think he was thinking I was going to bash the name right off the bat! My first impression of the name when I first heard that morning was not impressed, but I really wanted to ask Tony how they arrived on it. After hearing the explanation, I am really happy with the name. I don’t think I would have to explain what top thrill 2 is to anyone, compared to explaining something like Polaris.
Great interview, very refreshing. You did not attempt to 'show-boat' by interrogating the park or Zamperla on the things you may not agree with. Your appreciation for being invited and granted an interview showed. Stay respectful, -it will take you far in life.
Thanks for watching Cap, and I appreciate the comment! I’m glad my message got through in the video! I tried to find questions that truly showcased the new attraction but touched on some potentially sensitive notes delicately!
I can’t wait for the 2024!
Very well done video! MaPa Kerney.❤
Thanks!!!
It’s looking awesome!
Agreed!
The re-design is fantastic! Lord willing looking forward to our family coming to Cedar Point in 2024 to enjoy this coaster!
Thanks for the watching! We are so excited too! The theming around the area looks amazing and the new spike is going to be awesome!
We hope to be there opening day again this year to check out the progress! My guess is they hope to have it open Memorial Day but we will have to wait and see!
Great questions. I appreciate the respectfulness in the interviews 💪🏾💪🏾
Hey GVBaker!
Thanks for watching and the kind words! I definitely tried to respect Tony and Adam with the highest regard! They are working long hours to work on this attraction for all the guests!
Absolutely can't wait!
Hey Coaster Dave!
Thanks for watching and the comment!
Same! Can’t wait!! Really looking forward to riding this next year!
dude this is the best video i've seen from the event so far! great work!
Hey Zooderloopers,
Thanks so much for watching and the comment! I appreciate the kind words so much! I put a lot of thought and work into this video and it means a lot to earn your view and comment! Thanks so much!
Super interviews. Good prep and great questions.
Hey Joe!
Thanks for watching and the kind words!
Awesome video! Thank you for taking the time to go to media day and get these cool interviews and all this awesome footage!
Hey Nor!
So happy you liked it! I got up at 4 am and headed out to the point all before my day job! I was so happy to be included in this event and I will continue to make time for these types of events in the future!
I feel bad for Adam! I kind of ambushed him right at 630 AM during the interview time, but it turned out great!
@@kerney-cation Wow! That’s some impressive dedication on your part! And noooo I’d bet money on it that Adam was super stoked to be interviewed! Must be nice having CP as your home park! Mine is SF Great America which is still pretty good but I cannot wait to get back to Sandusky early next season! Again, great work! Can’t wait to see more!
Hey Nor!
Thanks for the kind words!
Yes I didn’t realize how blessed I was until I re discovered Cedar Point in 2021. I always went to geauga lake as a kid and only visited cedar point a few times in my young adult hood and never really appreciated it as I do now!
And SF great America! I am actually in california this week and I am trying to see both Knotts and SF Great America! Love our prestige plus pass!
Nice! Yes Sandusky is awesome and I am sure you’ll have a great time!
@@kerney-cation I’m so glad you discovered a new love for Sandusky! It’s truly my favorite place to be. And maybe I should’ve been more specific haha my home park is SF Great America in Gurnee Illinois! I’m about a quick 5 hour drive from the Roller Coast hehe
@@norrvox oh that makes sense! Yes SF great America! Yeah I will definitely have to check that place out next time I’m in Chicago!
Great interviews! It seemed like you had prepared questions for both. You made me think of questions to ask them. For Zamperla, "what was the main reason for the 74mph first launch speed?" and my burning question for Cedar Point is "Why was it not worth the investment on this project to extend the layout past the top hat?"
It was the previous launch tech that lead to the accident. They wanted to add something new that could fit in the park.
Hey Nicolas!
Thanks so much for watching and the comment!
Yes I definitely spent a few hours milling over the questions and also made some last minute changes after the official announcement that morning! I am glad to hear that translated will in the video!
My un-professional guess for the 74 MPH first launch is a limitation on an LSM launch system. With the amount of track that’s available, an LSM is only able to get you up to 74 MPH. Comparatively, the previous Intamin Hydraulic launch is able to get you up to 120 MPH.
I think Zamperla needed the spike in order to use LSMs as a lunch method, since it would require multiple launches or a swing launch to get the acceleration up to 120 MPH to get over the top hat.
Adding to my response above, I think they would have to increase the spike and launch distance if they used LSMs to get over a taller Top Hat. It’s a safer and more cost effective option in my opinion to avoid adding height to the top hat in something that has worked for 20 years. Too much risk to add re engineering at that height in my opinion.
With this attraction, they get a strata coaster back, that also is a record breaker. It’s a win win for Zamperla and cedar point.
I honestly think we have hit a ceiling for tallest and fastest coasters. One of the best coasters in the nation, velocicoaster, is none of those things. I think making a great coaster experience is the next frontier.
Can’t wait to come back next year.
I’m from 🇬🇧 so it’s a bit of pain getting there, but it so worth it.
Last time I came was in 2012 so a lots been added since!
Will stay at Breakers for 7 days!
Hey Smith!
That’s awesome and really great to hear! Yes a lot has changed! Breakers will be awesome for 7 days! We stayed their on opening weekend this year and had a blast, even though it was a little cold. Breaker mid summer is the best, since you can enjoy the Waterpark, pools at the hotel, and Cedar Point all from one central location!
That’s so cool that your signature will be under the new support.
Hey Henry!
Thanks for watching!!
Yes it was really a cool thing for them to do during media day and it will be a fun fact I can share with friends and family!
Some people are complaining, I think its going to be pretty exciting.
Budget name that's why, and the OG was better. This meh.
Everyone's entitled to their own opinion
definitely excited, but the name is definitely kinda lame. Everyone referred to it as dragster as it was just cooler and easier to say, but ig that’s why they aren’t saying it anymore.
Couldn’t agree more! You can never please anyone! I am so happy they are theming the area to CP racing and once again making roller coaster history even though it’s not the biggest or the fastest. I think 120 MPH is plenty fast!
I was really questioning the simplicity of the name until I talked to Tony in this video. Honestly, the name is perfect , it tells you everything you need to know. I think a brand new name might confuse some of the guests who aren’t enthusiasts.
7:53 "Gee I can't wait to go to Cedar point to ride xl 200 and Top Thrill"
Hey Dave!
Thanks for watching and your comments!
Yeah I really can’t wait to experience this new attraction in 2024! I am afraid of heights, so I am sure it’s going to be a huge thrill!
I know Tony did not just say TOP THRILL is what people called DRAGSTER 😂😂😂😂 I need to know what he's smoking and where he got it from
Somebody needs to tell him it's name was DRAGSTER and it's name will continue to be DRAGSTER. The only people that will call it TOP THRILL will I guess be all the 3 people that called it that before 😂😂😂😂
I know right lol, nobody ever called it “Top Thrill”
Thanks for watching Allison! I have heard a bunch of nicknames for the previous attraction, especially dragster! I think they probably wanted to move away from dragster, but keep a reference to the previous attraction. I think stop Thrill 2 does a great job of encompassing the previous record breaking coaster, but the 2 nods to something new!
Appreciate the comment and your perspective!
@@andyg4929I did😂
I wish cedar point would retire Tony Clark. He's been in this position for waaaaay too long.
I once approached him with a question years ago and he was clearly in a bad mood that day and he was very rude and cranky and seemed annoyed. Bye!
Hey @@jessestover2079 ,
Yeah I feel like it was probably a very busy week for him and the media day started at 430 am, so he was probably there EARLY! I bet it was extra busy with the leak from zamperla over the weekend too! Overall, I think he’s great and Cedar Point is lucky to have him involved!
you write like a crazy person! great questions!
Hey Dangrcat!
Thanks for the feedback! Sorry I was really stretching myself on this one ha! I was up early that day, worked the day job, then stayed up late to edit before flying out to California on a super early flight the next day lol!
I’ll take a look at the description and see if I can clean it up lol!
Great job on the interview.
Hey Jennifer!
Thanks so much for watching! I really appreciate the kind words!
No one called the Top Thrill Dragster "Top Thrill." It was always The Dragster.
Very true!
Yup. I live 20 minutes from CP and everyone calls it Dragster!
Ha the shade....more technical advanced. I cannot wait to see what z brings. I'm all for zamperla
Hey Bill!
Thanks for the awesome comment! Yeah after talking with Adam it sounds like they are really dumping money in the roller coaster division and it’s paying off! My son and I love the Wild Mouse! Can’t wait for 2024!
@kerney-cation yeah...when I saw the video for their train ..I think that was before any inde yet Z was happening... I thought it reminded me of top thrill trains in some way...
And here we are!
Ha good point! I know Adam mentioned they have been working on it for the last 18 months so that makes sense ha!
All i want to say is we need small boxes on platform for hats and glasses phones can be stored in closed pockets
Yes! It would be nice not to have to rent a locker to ride!
@@kerney-cation yes it would be for sure
Where can I get one of those cool polo shirts Tony is sporting? Lol
Lol! I thought they were awesome too! I think they were just for staff ha, since I didn’t see any on the merchandise table, but maybe not! I’ll keep an eye out at the stores in case they release them for purchase!
I hope Top Thrill 3 adds an airtime hill 😊
Hey Capture!
We will just have to wait and see 😂!!!
Looks to be a fun ride, but I think the original would be scarier, since this one seems to warm you up to the big launch. Still excited though!
Hey Leah!
Great point and thanks for watching! Yes I can definitely see how the first launch is not nearly as intimidating as the first launch, but I think the added thrill to the spike looking straight down and stopping will definitely add some thrill! Can wait for next year!
10:34 I sure hope that they have free lockers and no loose articles permitted. It will help out with capacity.
Hey Tommonsensepro,
Thanks for watching and the comment!
I completely agree! I think giving guests a free personal Locker while they ride encourages them to stow their loose articles, when charging for optional lockers discourages them.
I don’t get on why are people are complaining about TT2. I think people should be grateful that the *whole* ride didn’t get removed.
Hey Aftermath!
Thanks for the comment! I completely agree! I think it’s truly a gift that I have such a great theme park close to home! Cedar Point is making great strides to transform the park into the it’s next chapter!
However I definitely appreciate everyone’s point of view and comments!
i hope it is all white or baby blue w gold tan like Egypt colors that is my favorite 2 color palette Anything is better than white yellow and red that was bad
Thanks for watching and the comment! It looks like the track is going to white, maybe with some red? Then gray supports. They are also going to have blue around the attraction such as buildings etc
Top Thrill "That former ride" 2
Hey Curtis,
Good point 😂! I think that’s what they were going for. A reference to the old ride without actually saying it!
I am still calling it dragster
Hey Boston!
Thanks for watching and I appreciate the comment. I don’t think you’ll be the only one 😂. Most people will definitely be calling it dragster, especially with such a similar theme. Good point!
I still think there is gonna be a "oh by the way we forgot to mention..." announcement at the end of the season.
Tony Clark said Project High Point is still a secret......so maybe. But the layout does look pretty complete so idk.
Hey Stevo,
I think your right! I think they have a few more things up their sleeve to release, like maybe how the crowd will participate too! Maybe something interactive! Who knows! I’ll definitely be on the look out to wait and see!
@@kerney-cation It seems too dull and boring, especially since zamperla "leaked it" befote the "official announcment". The automated video shows not much of a rollback on 1st launch.They just got started on this new project...
I sure hope it does have metal detectors and a zero loose article policy. I’m so tired of loose articles flying out of peoples’ pockets and striking other people in the head or face. That’s what worries me whenever I ride towards the middle or back row on roller coasters now.
Hey Adam!
Thanks for watching and I appreciate the comment! I completely agree! It sounds like it’s up to Zamperla on if they are going to have metal detectors, but I would definitely like to see them on this attraction!
@@kerney-cation the original Top Thrill Dragster was my favorite coaster at Cedar Point and of all time. I was literally in love with it. I got 5 rollbacks total. I’m sad the original experience is gone but I’m just happy it’s technically staying.
Hey Adam! That’s amazing! 5 roll backs is incredible! Yes, I am happy to hear it’s staying too.
I am on the other fence where I never rode the original. I was honestly afraid to get on it lol. I have definitely grown in my love for coasters since then and I am looking forward to experiencing this attraction!
무사히 작동되면, 롤백은 절대로 구경조차 못하겠네 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
So are they keeping the countdown lights by the track and on the tower?😅
Hey Jakob!
Thanks for watching! Good point and I am not sure! Based on the video teaser it looks like they will have countdown lights, but perhaps new ones? I’ll keep an eye out at the parks to see I see anything!
I was due to visit CP from the UK in 2020 but due to covid the whole trip got nuked. Gonna see if I can resurrect that plan for 2024.
Hey The Broz!
Thanks for watching and the comment! Yeah Covid ruined a lot of plans, but that’s great news if you can to visit in 2024! I’ll keep an eye out for when TT2 opens!
The new name of Top Thrill 2, make a lot of sense from Tony Clark's explanation. It's what Six Flags did to pay homage for the Coasters at their Parks by keeping part of the original names, after being converted into Hybrid Rollercoasters. Even Twisted Colossucks. I call it that because I have to be the worst RMC Rollercoaster, and, the Colossus name shouldn't be in it. I wish Cedar Point had renamed Mean Streak, Mean Vengeance. Although it's a Great Coaster, the current name is Very Lame. I'm so looking forward to riding Top Thrill 2!!🏁🚩
Hey Ellex,
Great point and thanks for watching! I agree, I like the name on how it pays homage to the original attraction, but still feels new!
Yes, in 5-10 years people won’t even remember or know what mean streak was, since the new name has nothing to do with the old attraction. I think cedar point made the right move and I can’t wait either!
they can’t say dragster, I noticed at the water park one of the rides formerly named dragster H2O changed its name.
Hey Dxrk,
Thanks for watching and the comment!
I did some quick googling and I think they renamed Dragster H2O back in 2017 when they redid the Waterpark, but good catch! That would have been weird if they kept the name for the slide and they closed dragster!
That’s pretty worrying if they’ve only been focussing on their side of it, rather than considering what is already there. Hopefully the new works well with the old otherwise it’s gonna be a disaster.
Great video!
That's just public relations to not look bad by commentating what the other company has done. He answered it perfectly by only focusing on what their company can do. Obviously logistically, they know that ride inside and out to make all the necessary changes
Hey Aftermath!
Thanks for watching and great point! I think their engineers are definitely considering those factors honestly, so they don’t make the same mistakes, but from a PR perspective, they are focusing on the future, and not the past.
yo nice vid
Hey coaster world! Thanks for watching and the kind words!
@@kerney-cation yeah your welcome dude anytime
2:38 No limits 2?
Most likely
I thought the same thing! I was thinking planet coaster? It no limits 2 makes more sense!
idk i think its still intamin
Hey Mango!
Thanks for watching and the comment! Ha! Can never be too sure 😂!
Another mundane multi launch coaster, what a shame & r.I.p. dragster the best launch I’ve ever had on a coaster.
Hey evostu,
Thanks for watching and the comment!
Yeah I can see why you feel that way, getting a single launch to 120 mph definitely throws more Gs than 3 separate launches to get you there.
I am excited for the added ride length, new spike, and technology the retheme is going to bring though too! Hoping this adds to reliability and safety!
I wish they would have added a couple of twists to the new spike as an ode to Wicked Twister. I also think they should have added an inline barrel roll on the finish line track. That's an awful lot of wasted straight track. I feel like they wasted a good opportunity to really improve the ride.
Barrel rolls are my favorite
Hey Gobbz!
Thanks for watching and the comment! I completely agree, I was definitely thinking they might add some King da aka type hills after the top hat, but I think the space limited in the park might have restricted that. I also thought they might add like a wicked twister twist at the top, which I think would have been less intense then a straight spike.
Honestly, since I am afraid of heights, I think a straight spike is more terrifying! I think Cedar a point and Zamperla likely moved away from a twist since Tony emphasized the view from the top of the spike. It’s going to be a view unlike any other attraction of that area and the park!
It's wierd how they refuse to talk about the intamin bits.
Exactly, they act like intamin was an ex gf and its a sensitive topic for them
Hey ball!
Thanks for watching. Yeah I’m sure it’s some company policy PR nightmare to bash another manufacturer, but I agree with Adam’s statement. They can’t really speak to what Intamin was doing, they just want to bring the best tech and safety features to this attraction, which I can get onboard with!
Nobody called The Dragster “Top Thrill” lol it was just the dragster.
Hey Robert!
Thanks for watching and the comment! I definitely agree that the most popular nick name was dragster, so they had to probably go with #2 , which I have called it top thrill before too lol.
Now the lines are gonna be extra long for this ride just to have one extra ramp 😂🙄
Hey PAPA,
Thanks for watching and the comment! I completely agree, that’s why I think Cedar Fair should explore a virtual queue. I don’t know why people want to wait 4 hours for a ride, as I would rather be in the park doing other things, spending money, and experiencing what the park has to offer.
I probably won’t be able to ride it until it makes it’s way to early entry or fast lane in that case. I have my kids with me and I can’t ditch them for 5 hours in the park lol, but usually 30-60 minutes is so able.
Most called it just Dragster not Top Thrill.
Hey Rondal,
Thanks for watching and the comment! I agree that dragster was the primary nickname, but I think a close second is top thrill!
I guess you didn't want to ask the hard questions
Hey Adrea,
Thanks for watching and the comment!
And your right! I didn’t feel like I was there to tell them about how I felt about their choices, but more to ask them why they made those choices. And honestly, it definitely changed how I felt after they got a chance to tell their side of it.
@@kerney-cation I agree cuz a lot of people kind of not happy about what Cedar Point direction of top 30 I think because of safety issues and legal action there's trying to play it safe but really they could have gave it to drip name regardless of the situation
Sorry to say this but is Tony looking a little rough lately ?
Hey DA!
Thanks for watching and the comment! I think in this video , I caught him after he had down interviews for tv and some other outlets and had probably been up since 230 am that day. So sorry if I put him in a bad light but he was great and lively as always in person!
This is just the modern version of T2 into T3.
Hey Groot!
Good point! With the situation of T2 and T3 at Kentucky kingdom, which also had an incident, is vaguely similar to TTD and TT2. I think most of the improvements to TT2 really “aim” to benefit the ride! We will have to wait and see if safety and reliability of this attraction are better than the last!
Guess they won't be targeting opening day 2024.
My guess is that they are targeting 2024, but the winter and off-season is unpredictable, so they can’t commit to opening day.
My guess is that it will be something similar to kings islands latest new area and carrowinds. The “Land” will be open on opening day, but the attraction won’t be ready until like June 1st ish. But who knows! I’ll be there on opening day for sure to find out!
top thrill 2...aka..wicked twister 2...
Hey Michael!
Thanks for watching and the comment!
Yeah it looks like a super Wicked Twister with a top hat!
Love the redesign, it's exactly what I predicted a long time ago.
But that name, lmao. That's the laziest rename I've seen since X2, but X2 didn't even add new track. This literally has a new track and new layout. TT2. So dumb.
When I’m being launched at 120 mph @ 420 feet in the air I won’t be able to shake from my mind that the name of the ride isn’t cool enough and it will honestly ruin the experience!! 😡😡
Hey Real!
Thanks for watching and I appreciate your input! Yeah I remember hearing the spike and LSM theories early on, you were so right!
I have definitely heard similar feedback on the name. I honestly think Cedar Point was going for simplicity. If you mention the new name “Top Thrill 2” to anyone that has heard of TTD, or been to cedar point, they can figure it out.
Comparatively, if you ask someone who isn’t up to date on the latest news if they want to ride Polaris in 2024, they likely have no clue what your talking about and would require an explanation. I see the benefit to going either way and that’s why I love this community!
Metel detectors ??? What ??? Canadas wonderland owned by cedar fair doesn’t have those in ride lines only the frount park
To make sure people are bringing phones /keys/ stuff that can fly out and injure a bystander I guess?
Exactly. Steel Vengeance has them in line to make sure you have nothing in your pockets. It’s not about weapons. Based on Tony’s response, they will work with the manufacturer Zamperla to see if metal detectors are going to be required. It is nice that you get a complimentary but small locker for steel vengeance since you can’t really take anything on it.
Ugg. Why bother?
With the reimagine? I think they want to keep Cedar Point as the roller coaster capital of the world by trying something new and bringing back a strata coaster to the park.
Name has nothing to do with racing! Smoke the competition? Still smaller than king da ka! And the line will be slow!
Hey Edge!
Thanks for watching! I think they are going for a racing theme and not an actual race, but I definitely see where you are coming from! Like Gemini is a legit race between to coasters.
Yes, honestly, I think the difference in height is not substantial enough to make a difference between king da ka and the original top thrill. I think six flags just waived a big check at Intamin asking to be a little bigger and faster than TTD, which is bad business practice in my opinion.
I think Intamin should have offered the same ride height and speed to six flags or created something entirely new.
Why do they keep calling it a race? It isn't a race.
Dragsters are race cars
Hey Zach!
Thanks for watching! Yeah it’s not really a race like with Gemini, but I think they are going for racing as a theme instead. Like getting the feeling like your actually part of the cedar point racing team, which sounds fun!
It's wonderful how nice you were but I still think this ride is going to be lame compared to the original. So many different options they had and Cedar Point went with this. Incredible let down. Cedar Point, we all know you can do better. This is the type of thing Six Flags would do.
I would actually try it first before forming any opinions. I know many coaster enthusiasts are negative pessimists, but try to stay positive
@@Hydra_X9K_Music Look, I hope I'm 1000% wrong but I can't help my opinions on it. I hope it's even better than the original but I rode the original and that launch was absolutely nutter butters! Rest of the ride was meh but the launch was so incredible that it instantly became my #1 coaster of all time even though when I went to ride it a second time a cloud rolled in and it went down. *Jokingly* Give me a solid 0-120mph launch or give me death. 😄
Hey Shadowprince!
Thanks for watching and I appreciate the comment! I think your concerns as valid! One big acceleration to 120 mph is definitely different than 3 LSM launches to get you up to 120 MPH.
Conversely, I think the spike definitely adds a new component of thrill to the coaster and increases the overall ride time to the attraction, which is a plus.
I know they are capitalizing on the rollback being a favorite, but I’m not sure how far the first launch is going to get you up the top hat. From the rendering it looks like maybe 1/2? An original rollback was almost all the way at the top, so that’s something to consider too. We will just have to wait till 2024 to find out!!!
Budget name? ffs...... The name kinda implies it's a video game, or tries to capture video game like characteristics. Meh, no effort.
The one thing I do like is the color scheme and logos.
Hey Galactis,
Thanks for watching and the comment! I definitely agree it’s straight forward and a simple name! I like how it tells you exactly what the ride is, compared to a new name, like Polaris. I feel like you would have to explain it compared with Top Thrill 2.
I loved the logo and the Merch! Definitely going to try and snag the hoodie on our next visit!
Great another 8 hour wait. Come on CP get a T-Tex!! Oh and get a new name for it. It’s boring.
Hey Chelsea!
Thanks for watching and your comment! Yeah I am definitely concerned on the wait times! I don’t want to spend a whole park dark waiting for a new attraction. We went to Magic Kingdom and used the virtual line and it’s much better. You wait for you mr group to be called and the max wait is an hour. we could still enjoy the park and “spend money” instead of being stuck in a queue. Really hoping a virtual queue is added to cedar points tech road map in the future!
It looks like a great coaster but KindaKa is even better now than this new coaster.but steel I steel want to ride it
Hey Armando!
Thanks for watching and the comment! I’ll definitely have to ride King da Ka and top thrill 2 to be sure! I think biggest and fastest won’t make the best coasters of tomorrow, but overall experience, like Velocicoaster and Maverick.
Fuuuuuck
Definitely going to be an intense ride! I am afraid of heights! But I will be riding this one!!! 😳
