History

Built for Cedar Point's 1983 season, it was one of the first Intamin first generation freefalls. While several were built, this is last remaining ride of this type in operation. While Cedar Point had this ride up for sale since 2005, it never sold, and Cedar Fair decided to move the ride to Dorney for the 2010 season, after entertaining 7.8 million riders. It was originally supposed to move to Knott's, but Cedar Fair made the change after "... a review of the site geography, aesthetic park design, land use, and in the ride’s uniqueness in the northeast United States."
