My daughter and I have driven up from Indiana two summers in a row to ride this gem. It’s simple, straight forward and gets right to the point: airtime. Lots and lots of glorious airtime.
Indeed - still a fine coaster although I think there was more airtime on it when it was new
I love how this ride maintains a fast pace through the entire layout.
Yes, it has s lot of energy to use up
Amazing ride. I remember going to this park when I was little, and my parents wouldn't let me ride this. But after 6 years. I got to ride it for the first time this year, and it was amazing.
Favorite woodie, so underrated
When I first rode it in 1999 it shot to my number 1 woodie position...sure it's dropped down that list now but still very good
That has some incredible small hills at the end of the ride. I can see where you may hit the airtime. Plus that helix at the end is fantastic. Thanks for sharing this one David~

It doesn't have as much airtime as it did when new, but still a powerful ride
ME AND MY DAD WERE IN THW FRONT SEAT I WAS CRYING THW WHO TIME
My family and I just went there a couple of days ago and i went on that ride for my first time and it shakes a lot and I did not feel good after that
Me Neither i was a Nervous wreck!
Man I love this ride. I rode it like 80 times last summer. I remember every bit of this ride and just watching this pov I physically felt every jerk and airtime moment
I can also 'feel' the airtime when watching the POV :-)
Ive ridden this ride at least 5 times its mah fave and it was the first roller coaster i was ever on
Looks like one of CCI’s best creations. Definitely planning to ride it when I go to the US.
It's well worth a visit and I still found it enjoyable to ride even after 18 years since my first ride on it.
Now that looks like it would be a great first roller coaster ride for me. Im 54 and have never ridden a coaster but hopefully will get a chance to ride one this summer. That one looks like extreme fun, appreciate you sharing this video, it makes me really, really want to get on one!
That's great to read Pamela :-)I hope you get on it and enjoy the ride.
they should rmc this, Michigan's adventure deserves it.
this was the first roller coaster i've ever ridden, i was about 7 or 8 at the time. i was barely tall enough to fit on there. it was utter hell for me but my cousins enjoyed it!
It is a massive structure. It's a little rough but not bad for a woodie. My daughter at 7 loved it but I had to hold her down, there is so much airtime. It's my 2nd favorite wood coaster next to The Beast.
When I first rode it, this became my new number 1 woodie..although to be fair it was the first wooden coaster I had ridden in the USA. It's still a pretty powerful coaster.
Finally, a POV with the new airtime hill at 1:49.
Miss that trick track element though!
I never really paid attention to the trick-track, so I can't say for sure how I felt about it. I'm all for more airtime, though.
Fair enough :-)
This ride was awesome it was so much fun
Much love to the wooden roller coasters
Ira Dorsey well I live where Michigan adventure is located and I’ve been there more times than you can count and it’s been around for a long time and the wooden roller coaster is clearly trusted has it injured anyone no not at all so
Is nobody going to talk about the beautiful audio...ah....so soft i could fall asleep to it..
Just to clarify, the video was filmed with a pair of sunglasses...cameras are not permitted on the ride...so the wind noise isn't an easy fix :-)
@Abigail Nauta I use Pivothead Eyewear glasses which have HD video recording function pivotvision.com/
Hey, Davidjellis! I am going to visit Michigan's Adventure next month. However, I may not ride Shivering Timbers because it had an accident that involved two trains crashing in the station.
I read about that - I guess it will be closed for a while then?
my favorite wooden coaster
It was my favourite when I first rode it in 1999 - it's well down the list now though.
I went to Michigans adventure two days ago and I went on this ride!
I was just there yesterday
Only POV w/out the trick-track
I guess that might be the case :-)
Good POV! I heard they removed the trick-track element this year! That was the only part of this ride that I hated.
I wasn't aware it had been removed until I rode it...I quite liked it, so missed it this time
BryceFourn 2001 I loved this ride and I'm 10
I did this ride
This is an amazing POV of the ride "Shivering Timbers" at "Michigan's Adventure" in Muskegon County Michigan. The audio and video quality of this POV are simply stunning, and truly emmerisve. The best part is probably the fact that the camera was still the whole time! I always find it difficult to focus on the ride when the camera is constantly bouncing up and down. Once again, amazing video!
Many thanks for your kind words...the video was filmed with a pair of video sunglasses so I was pleased how well it came out!
That was so cool!!!! 😎 I had heard there was only 1 chain, and no brakes throughout the ride. Once you're over the lift hill, the rest is gravity (by design). Well done! It looked like there was probably a whole lot of airtime.
It used to have something like 20+ seconds of airtime...I felt it was a lot less airtime when I rode it this year, but still a good ride
Wooden Dragon 1998 appears! The true out-and-back woodie, I have to say so! :'D
Who else didn’t expect to it lifted out of their seat while riding?
That's just airtime. :/
Meee
Wow, it really is super long, it seems like it's taking you out of the park and back in.Also, is the ride pirate themed? Because shivering timbers is a GREAT name for a pirate themed ride.
The ride doesn’t really have theming.
What’s the trick track?
The track used to do a quick tilt to one side and then tilted to the other whilst travelling a straight line...that's the best description I can come up with. It meant the train wiggled a little!
Best ride
He first roller coaster I ever went on was, shivering timbers. I sat in the front. It was super shaky, though.
What's the airtime on this ride like? Its super long and 57 mph isnt super fast, I'd imagine it would lose a good amount of its speed over such a long ride with so many hills. However, it seems to carry alot of speed throughout, does it use terrain to maintain speed?
If it really is as fast/air time filled as it seems, I dont know why this coaster isnt top for woodies...it looks amazing. Would be every enthusiasts dream, nothing but airtime start to finish. Does its location hold it back?
Wow - so many questions :-)
When this coaster opened it was arguably the best wooden coaster out there, I rode it in 1999 and it was delivering over 20 seconds of airtime. Since then it has got rougher and has lost some of its speed, but it still carries lots of airtime...sadly the ride operators tend to staple you so you can't enjoy as much air as before. It's still a fine woodie, and makes use of its simple out and back design to deliver some fine riding. The park itself isn't that highly rated which probably accounts for less riders and less reviews than the bigger parks in the chain...I still like it, but it isn't a top 10 any more for me.
There is no question that this coaster's location is it's biggest hindrance to being more highly rated. So many enthusiasts haven't even ridden it because it is so far out of the way.
Does it go 57 or 65mph? On the Michigan’s Adventure website, it says it goes 65
RCDB states 57mph rcdb.com/478.htm
Ok, thanks
Do you see the line to the parking booths? 0:52 Must have been a Saturday.
It was !
I was just on this ride 1 hour ago 😂
and how was it running?
yippee! Great POV sir
Thanks :-)
I rode this 2 times yesterday
I would shit my self cause I love all the rides except this one my favorite is the wild cat
Me and my dad were front seat I was so scared it felt like I was flying above the seat and about to die
@@hashtagpuglover7684 Yess makes you feel like you about to fall off the ride when you go down that first steep hill. Sooo Scarrryy! 😱😱
Why did they remove the trick track
Not sure...I liked that element, so shame it went
Maybe because it gave riders a headache. Even I didn't like it.
I never had that problem, but then again, I last rode in back in 1999 when it was new
Christian Moss It got really old and stressed up.
Christian Moss because it gave most people problems in the past and yes it was getting to old and stressed out
AAAARRRRGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!
TRICK-TRACK!! !
Gone...no longer there :-(
filmed on august 12. 2017
It was...how did you know?
@@davidjellis you said the date was taken.
Someone must have asked before then @@jeffmarks1996
Sounds like a bass boosted video.
👍👍👍👍👍👍
I hope I get to ride this before they tear it down!
Even tho its looks like wooden hyper its shorter than The Monster
I will Never ride Shivering Timbers again It Scared the Mess out of me!!! Going down that STEEP Hill makes you feel like you're going to fall off the ride. I was SCREAMIN MY ASS OFF like HELLLLLLLLP!!!!!! GET ME OFF OF THIS SHAKEY CRAZY THING!!😱😱😱😝😝
@timothy wait Nooo wayyyyy😱😱I will be Really TERRIFIED!!!
I rode this the first the first time five days ago and my back is still destroyed from it. I’m a 20 year old going on 75, my buddies were all fine tho. Anyone else have similar experiences on it?
Just you I think...I loved the ride
You must have been just unlucky...I found the ride a little bumpy but nothing that would cause any injury to be honest
Earrape warning is advised
THIS RIDE WAS PAINFUL
Was fine when I rode it
It’s just like that lmao
I just got back today SUCKS even worse now than ever they could not find a chair for a 80 year old women in line,3 Rides broke down while there Very rude people through out the park $6 bucks for French fries that only take 3 bits to eat them all $4 bucks for a can of pop worst time ever today and been going there many years will never go back .
Curious what the 80-year old woman was in line for...not seen many people riding coasters at that age? Many parks are expensive for food and drink, and the corporately owned ones tend to be the worst offenders. It shouldn't come as a surprise though...if you have been visiting for years I am sure you will know they tend to be pricy for refreshments.
