@@me-myself-i787 IDK about that. It is a really historic ride, heck its currently the oldest operating roller coaster at the park. But they could benefit from another woodie, probably more of a twister woodie though, but who knows. Maybe if the new Zambezi zinger proves to be a hit at Worlds of Fun we could see a similar ride at Cedar point. Heck maybe even themed like their old Wildcat coaster that closed a decade ago.

@@keithchristner4522 You also gotta remember, seaside wooden coasters were the bread and butter of boardwalk parks long before the cheap Wildcats and Galaxy models came on the market, either after the boardwalk park had already shut down, or to supplement or replace their existing wooden coaster.

I saw you guys in line for Wild Mouse and waved on Wednesday. Legit made my year. Never thought I'd run into yall. Keep up the great videos!

the baordwak looks great! wild mouse was also a great addition to the park. i would even go to say its the best family coaster in the park

I'm glad to see Cedar Point really embracing its own history more. Historically it was a weekend beach side resort without rides before becoming an amusement park but by the early 1900s it had become essentially a gigantic boardwalk amusement park. I think that really ought to be the image it projects. I like the idea of Cedar Point being sort of a classic boardwalk park on steroids. Something that feels like Coney Island in its hay day but that has extreme thrill rides to keep it modern and interesting. I would love for them to go further with this.

I'm so impressed with the quality of your videos. You can tell you do a lot of work before you even step foot in the park. I think maybe experience has a lot to do with how good your videos are, but really, there's some talent here too. Thanks for the inspiration. Those footers in the ID queue are enormous. I can't wait to see what they will hod up.

Just went yesterday and the boardwalk is such a good area and wild mouse is a great family coaster, also got a night ride on maverick and steel vengeance

Thank you for this video! We are heading to Cedar Point for the first time in August and I can't wait!!! So excited!!

The shot at 12:03 clearly shows all the original supports for the launch track were left in place. Everyone seems to be hoping for some kind of an airtime or bunny hill in the area of the launch - similar to Pantheon. This seems unlikely given the supports are still in place. Not to mention that adding a bunny hill in that location would also change the load on the footers for the same supports, and they don't appear to have poured any additional footers in that area.

There was another thing I noticed on my visit a few weeks ago that perhaps you didn’t see… the museum is closed and is apparently being used for storage. Kind of a bummer because I really enjoy the history aspect of CP and that was a cool part of the park.

Thanks for taking us on a tour of what's new. We'll be heading back there in about a month.

I love all the changes when I was on the top floor for Grand Pavilion I was stunned of how crazy the views are especially for the whole Boardwalk section and GateKeeper. Also Wild Mouse is a cool, fun edition and actually smooth.

Got to see you all while leaving maverick for the last ride of the night, shout out Coaster Studios! Park is just as great as ever, four walk ons on Steel Vengeance made the day and the boardwalk/wild mouse is a nice addition for the family crowd here. Can’t wait for the dragster update next year!

Very good video. Thank you.

FYI...The Calypso has always been there, they just pulled it because it was a duplicate of Tiki Twirl in the park. So, CP used to have a few different rides in the park that were the same, but in different areas of the park, so there were more rides available. For instance, they had a Trabant ride and a duplicate in the park in that area that was the same ride, but themed differently called Schwabinchen

I was at Cedar Point earlier this week and loved the boardwalk section and the other rides.

I went for the first time 2 weeks ago for my Senior trip! I got to ride all the rides except the wild mouse, but I loved this park, hope I can go back one day when dragster is done!!!

I've never looked at a Wild Mouse and went "heck yes, I want to ride that!" The new boardwalk looks like a super fun area. Can't wait to get over there.

Ill be at cedar point the week of july 4th. First time back in over 10 years. Cant wait to try steve!

Just went for COASTERMANIA! I miss wicked twister but the boardwalk is awesome so I’m happy something good went in its place. I am also disappointed about the lockers. You used to be able to rent them for 1 hr for $1 but now it’s a minimum of 2 hrs for $3. As a local, it just feels like cp is making more and more greedy decisions each year which is dissapointing :(

I wish Cedar Fair would give some of their lesser parks just a 1/10 of the love and attention that they give Cedar Point.

I am stoked as cuss for the new version of Dragster!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When I first rode it, I thought it was the best coaster in the world, and I stand by that!!! Now, 2024, this coaster is going to be legen-wait for it……dary!!!! Legendary!!!!!!

Y’all should swing by Carowinds and take a look at the new Aeronautica Landing area. It’s beautiful! Not many other changes to the park but with the new flat rides and themeing, it adds a ton of kinetic energy to an otherwise dead section.

I've gone a dozen times this year. I love the Grand Pavillion & The Farmhouse Grill.

I remember wicked twister was being built and teased for a opening. The memories

So crazy to see dragster like that but it's interesting to see what will happen.

I’m surprised you didn’t say anything about all the railroad merchandise they’re selling this year. They literally have a Lionel model of one of the locomotives.

The building you showed at 8:06 is actually the old Grand Pavilion. It's been remodeled a lot since, but yeah that was the old Grand Pavilion.

Oh my goodness guys the food looks fire 🔥😋 and awesome park very cool 👍 lol 😊.

We went in May as well, and immediately noticed the change in locker prices. The all day one is 12 bucks instead of 10. It's ridiculous considering an all day rental is only 5.00 at KI. Cedar Fair owns both parks, so why the huge difference?

The Boardwalk looks sharp! I don’t really drink, but those alcohol prices are worse than a pro sporting event. 🤯

I love where you phone is

That Calypso reminds me of Fiddler’s Fling at Six Flags Great America. Also Calypso the lemonade is very good, so many flavors to choose from.

Great Video of CP! Makes me want to go back. Grew up going there haven’t been back since moving to Florida. The Boardwalk looks amazing and really ties the beautiful beach to the park. I think a lot of people don’t even know they have a beach lol 😂 I remember they used to Have a Dolphin show Oceana that was removed for wicked twister. And now it is gone. Their shows are incredible too. Do they still have night show Illuminosity? If they do you should put in your next video 😊😎

I heard they remodeled the restrooms around Gatekeeper as well. I remember at the Q & A at Coastermania 2021 people asked about remodeling those restrooms.

Thanks for the picture at Iron Dragon.

You had the quantity set to 2! Maybe it's not gone up and you get a discount if you get more than one? Really interested to see what comes along with the new version of Top Thrill Dragster!

Massive footers! Gotta wonder if Power Tower’s days might be numbered to make room for Spikey

Ive been to CP 3 times already this year. Always a blast! Staffing has been a little short but hopefully that will get better soon. Also a lot of ride breakdowns.. Typical start of the season stuff.

You can definitely tell there planning something big with dragster or the main middle area since they moved scrambler and Matterhorn

Wild mouse ruined my night. I’m here now at Cedar Point June 1-7th 2023. Lighthouse Point the cottages.

We were at Cedar Point for THREE days and they never opened the Wild Mouse. Oh well, if I am going to miss a new ride at CP, at least it was only a Wild Mouse

I remember that I had a trip to cedar point planned before we knew about dragster and we found out that it wouldn’t be open and I got so mad and my family was so confused.

Wild Mouse was pretty good, and it seems that all of the flat rides also gained their own soundtracks to go with their theming, which I didn’t notice before on rides like Calypso and Matterhorn. Even Scrambler seemed to be upgraded

If they ever do close Kiddy Kingdom, they should keep the carousel, and move it to the boardwalk and rename it The Boardwalk Carousel.

rode the wild mouse many times and found that the cheese car spins more than the rest of them.

Cheese car really spins a lot (or they spin it a lot) on the brake run. I got dizzy. The moving loading platform is actually a pain to getting in and out of imho. My friend who had a stroke and his left side gives him issues couldn't get into ADA accessible Cheese car (it stops but the side door opens more)

F.y.I. the original grand pavilion is still there. Its across from the boardwalk sign by windseeker. Around the 8 minute mark you panned over to it and said this building over here.

Those cocktails are the price they are because they only use top shelf liquor as you can see behind the bar. Plus a 30% increase in price compared to what is normally considered reasonable because it is an amusement park and they can. Just get a grey goose and cranberry with a lime or a tanqueray and tonic with a lime or something it’ll be a little less expensive but you will get a good buzz. Less ingredients to ring up.

im going finally

the Cheese car on wild mouse spins the most

I can't wait until next season when re-imagined TTD opens so lines at other coasters won't be as long.

Best $40 ever. I just wish they would add some laptops so I can get on some work Zoom meetings there too.

Did you ever get to try the Blackpool wild mouse? It was insane😂

The Millennium Lounge is included with Prestige Pass, so that is where they will get 95% of their clientele.

The new wild mouse coaster theming reminds me of the old Tom and Jerry cartoons... if Jerry had a bunch of his cousins join him! 2:43 2:51

The audience for the VIP lounge is parents whose kids aren't old enough to drive but they don't want to spend the day with them. I think CP is over estimating how many people are willing to pay $40 for that half a**ed sad excuse for a VIP lounge though, lol.

Home park for me! Havnt gotten the wild mouse credit yet

The keychain that CoasterMania attendees got is definitely the first riders admission to the new Top Thrill Dragster. So glad I attended! By the way, I'm so tired of the speculation game we're all forced to play.

I'm hoping for a space theme.

When I had frontier inn we had the chicken and pizza. We really enjoyed both, the sauces were really great. I liked it, i didnt have the burger but i prefer it to chick fil a. Farmhouse is definitely better though

Assuming dragster is getting the backwards spike, it would be cool if it got the space theme as Sarah suggested, and then you got wicked transport, which would pay homage to two defunct coasters from the park

Great video as always. I have never been to Cedar point ever I would love to go one day however, I have a question why do they charge money for lockers knowing that you have to ride steel vengeance for those who want to? At Hershey they are complementary for Wildcats revenge.

Love the vid. I stopped thinking after I heard French Bread Pizza. Those looked delish. If anyone has the 411 on them Za's lemme know how they are

All I’ll say is.. you haven’t seen expensive cocktails til you’ve eaten out in Manhattan! To me those prices are very appealing personally! But maybe that’s just cause I’m used to forking over $18+ to start with? But hey, I feel ya

Sarah even put a brown short just for Wild mouse 😂

Honestly I’d rather have a spinning wild mouse than a wicked twister, they’re just kind of an underwhelming ride, meanwhile wild mice are always so fun especially if they spin

As someone who is purely a coaster enthusiast, I don't love losing both Dragster and Wicked Twister. The park's lineup just isn't quite as deep now after losing two excellent rides. I'm sure the Boardwalk looks nice, but I don't go to Cedar Point because it looks nice. I go there to ride as many extreme thrill rides as possible, and there's less of them now. I also don't like the charging for lockers. Just raise the price of the overall park ticket and make the lockers free instead of nickel and diming the thrill seekers every time they want to ride Steel Vengeance.

Cedar Point used to have one of those Wild Mouse coasters. They got rid of it for a reason.
