More About This Ride
Ride Restrictions:
Minimum height restriction:   48 in.

Structure:
Two arms, each holding 20 passengers, will swing with the aid of pneumatics (a signature element in the operation of S&S rides).

Features:
Dynamic ride height of 125' at maximum swing.

History:
The ride will be located between Cedar Creek Mine Ride and Snake River Falls.

Skyhawk has had a decent amount of downtime due to blown piston seals. Cedar Point maintenance is efficient at replacement despite difficult access.

One of my favorite flat rides at Cedar Point. I just wish the ride cycle was a lot longer.

Way too short and the down swing felt weaker than Lake Compounces....

This thing is massive...I have never been on one of these swing-type rides...and I found that this was one of the most fun rides in the park. Its good for those that cant take the spinning of flat rides.
