| | | What would make Cedar Point the perfect coaster park? Cedar Point as we all know is the best park on earth (voted 8 straight years). It has plenty of incredible rides especially 16 roller coasters. It has 2 wooden coasters, a corksrew, a bobsled, a suspended, 2 kiddies, 1 mine ride, a hyper, a stand up, 2 inverted, a giga coaster and a launching coaster. I think the only thing missing is perhaps a flying coaster. Do you think Cedar Point should add a flying coaster? Discuss! |

| | | I think the only thing missing about Cedar Point is threads. We don't have enough threads about them asking the same thing...so I'm going to open a new thread if you'll excuse me.
I was going to but I noticed this

| | | Some subjects just get beaten to a pulp. I am highly satisfied with Cedar Point's selection as is. So what if they do not have a floorless or flying coaster.

| | | ^ I don't think they'd ever put a floorless in...I mean, for one, Geauga Lake has one and it's the longest one right now and I don't think Cedar Point would want to take the record from a park in the same company. I think a flying coaster or dive machine is will be next, or something that we haven't seen yet, like a tilt coaster maybe? |

| | | One type of coaster that I think would fit in perfect would be a B&M dive machine. I just think it fit's in with CP's "premier selection" of coasters. But didn't AB make a deal with B&M not to build any dive machines in the U.S. for 2 years or something?
Another thing that would make CP the perfect coaster park...if it had no lines...and was accross the street from my house. ;)

| | | Cedar Point has some great quality coaster which some parks do not have. The only thing the park is missing is a few B&M's.
Flyer, Floorless & Dive Machine.

Well, as we all know Universal Orlando, Busch Gardens Williamsburg and Dollywood are all better than Cedar Point ;)
Here's a tip: thats an opinion, not a fact (especially if you are using the GTA's as your "source" :rolleyes: ) |

| | | I don't know if i would say CP is the best park on Earth.
I would put Disney & Universal ahead of CP anyday.

| | | Cedar Point is the best park on earth for a coaster enthusiast, not necessarily a family. Places like Disney, Busch Gardens, Sea World, and Universal Orlando is what draws families.

| | | I think CP should build a great Airtime woodie. Mean Streak isn't cutting it, even though Blue Streak still offers some decent air...

| | | ^ That's YOUR opinion, you might find other parks that have coasters that CP doesn't have better and that's what you think. A lot of people like Cedar Point, and not just because it has a lot of coasters. It does have a lot to offer to the enthusiast world, but has some stuff for the family as well, even if it's not as much as parks like Disney. CP is one of the best parks in the world, if some people want to put Disney parks ahead of them, go ahead, but Disney parks are for families and people who like theming, I don't think thats the complete package a park should have. I think people just give them a bad rep because they think they only care about coasters and records, but it seems like they are drifting from that self picture and are starting to work on their flat department instead of adding coasters every year like some parks...*cough*SFMM*cough* I think once Dick Kinzel moves on, Cedar Point will eventually turn into a family park as well, even then when they have 17 roller coasters. Once he retires we'll see less coasters and more flats and family coasters which is good, hopefully that will help them remain one of the world's most elite amusement parks.
Bob, just because you think other parks have better coaster collections, doesn't mean you can just shoot down someone else's opinion. If someone else thinks CP has the best coaster collection, that's their opinion. Stop making it seem like your opinion is superior. I admit, CP doesn't have every coaster out there, but the coasters they do have, are some of the best coasters of their coaster type. Hopefully we'll see some other coaster type get used to it's fullest, and hopefully it will be either a flyer or dive machine. |

Yea, I know, that was my point ;)

Wow, they add one flat and all of the sudden its a "drift"? They need to replace dozens of flats in that park, their collection is aging. To me, they have "drifted" more towards developing their resort better with the water park, which is a good thing.
... and you don't want to know my opinion on MM. I'll just give a brief annotation: I've used the term "barrio" to describe it ;)
[quote]I admit, CP doesn't have every coaster out there[/quote]
LOL Well duh! :rolleyes:
(sorry that was funny and I dont care who you are)
[quote]but the coasters they do have, are some of the best coasters of their coaster type.[/quote]
Again thats your opinion, and I reserve the right to think that Millennium, Dragster, Magnum, Raptor, Wicked Twister and even Mantis to an extent are overrated. I dont think my opinion is superior, I'm just reminding folks that there are differing opinions ;) I [b]know[/b] my opinions aren't always with the general consensus and are often time not what people want to hear. | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
