This coaster was one that I didn't think I would like on my trip to CP. It turned out to be such a fun ride that I wanted to go on for a second time. I now know why people talk so highly of this woodie.

This ride was the ride that got me back into wooden coasters back in the day. SFDL's Predator had me scared to death of them, I assumed they all hurt that bad. I rode this only once (no time for re-rides that day), but i'm sure glad I did. It's a really good little coaster, with nice air-time.

I was surprised how smooth it is for its age. It is truly a great wooden coaster with lots of airtime.

A great wooden coaster! A little on the small scale, but very smooth, great color, and a great ride all together.

Its a classic, all the way through. One of the best in the state and certainly one of the best in the world, yet it is not the best. But it is a great ride, and something you must experience for yourself.

A truely original Wooden Coaster. It looked big when I first rode it, but it is actually pretty small. A fun ride overall.

Fun little coaster, it would get more attention if it weren't at Cedar Point. Nice airtime.

It is a good classic wooden roller coaster, greatly known in Ohio. It is too old and bumby but you do get nice doses of airtime. I could see this, if Cedar Fair keeps this for 10 more years, it must be re painted and retracked. It wouldn't be that bad to see it go.
