Cedar Point Major Coasters

When it was built, Corkscrew was deemed as the roller coaster with the most inversions, and has the second oldest vertical loop in the world, being narrowly beaten by Revolution at Six Flags Magic Mountain as the first roller coaster with a vertical loop by a mere seven days! Still, this classic Arrow corkscrew coaster thrills riders today, and is as exciting as ever.

A very popular coaster, this Arrow Dynamics Custom Racing coaster was actually the tallest, fastest roller coaster in the world when it first opened. Even though it may not have the six hour long lines that it had when it opened back in '79, it still is a thrill for people of all ages!

A suspended coaster with a fun, tree-lined layout, culminating in an impressive pretzel-shaped helix over water.

Magnum XL-200 was the first major coaster built underneath the rule of present day Cedar Fair CEO Dick Kinzel. For his new coaster, Mr. Kinzel wanted to combine the good old fashion out and back coaster layout with the new steel coaster technology, to create an amazing experience, bridging the coasters of the past with the coaster of today and tomorrow.

In true Cedar Point style, Mantis was the tallest, fastest stand-up roller coaster when it was constructed in 1996. Though it may have been out deuced by newer B&M stand-up models, this coaster continues to thrill to this day.

When Cedar Point install a new ride they usually do a good job. Here's a ride that features nearly
EVERYTHING an enthusiast could dream of. The ride starts with a launch up the lift hill immediately followed by a 95 degree drop before it speeds through a series of over-banked turns, and snappy, swift turns. Then it crawls to a slower pace inside a tunnel before launching you at 70mph over water (complete with water shots) before inverting you a few more times!

One of the classic Dinn Corp. wooden coasters, this massive beast lingers towards the back of Cedar Point. Towering over the Cedar Village and Lake Erie, this roller coaster features an intriguing twister layout, in which the track winds its way around, eventually flying through the roller coaster's own supports, creating a twisted out and back coaster feeling.

Millennium Force was yet another record breaking coaster built by Cedar Point. Opened in the year 2000, it broke 6 world records, including tallest roller coaster, fastest roller coaster, first roller coaster to utilize a cable lift system, longest drop on a roller coaster, steepest non-vertical roller coaster, first roller coaster to exceed 300 ft. This is a truely phenominal coaster, blending airtime and sensational overbanks with height and pure speed...just watch out for those bugs!

Raptor is known as one of the first unique, large B&M Invert designs. The first Inverted coaster to integrate a cobra roll element into its layout, it was the tallest, fastest, longest inverted coaster when it opened, as well holding the most inversions of any inverted coaster in the world. Raptor showed that B&M's Inverted coaster idea has tons of potential, which eventually gave way to even more giant B&M Inverts.

Top Thrill Dragster opened in 2003 as the tallest and fastest roller coaster in the world, and is an extraordinary ride. Despite not being the tallest or fastest coaster in the world anymore, Dragster still thrills riders by offering an incredible launch, huge tophat, and blazing speeds - all with lapbars.

The world's tallest and fastest Impulse coaster, Wicked Twister is also the only Impulse coaster to feature two twisting spikes.  Its setting right on the beach of Lake Erie adds to the ride's experience.
