Cedar Point 2012

That new CW coaster looks like diamondback on stereroids

That's just the exchange rate. ;)

I would be happy with a Tornao Slide, a Looping waterside, and like what Michigans Adventure got this year. Soak City deserves all that and it would draw in more guests.then improvements in the park.

We already have what Michigan Adventure got this year champ. I'd personally like a Tornado or racer slide.

Ya tornados are a lot of fun and it would be a great addition to modernize the park

^ Isn't there a storm chaser on this board? hehehe

I was at Orlando Sea World Aquatica in May, and it had Roa's Rapids, where there were no inner tubes and the water pushed you along the course. It was a blast! The bottom was a "smoother than concrete type of surface" so it was easy on the feet.

That just shows how much I care about soak city ahah. when I rode magnum i didn't see it. Where is it at?? And all the slides looked like they haven't been upgraded in 10 years maybe m,ore.

With all due respect, I'm not exactly sure how you can miss Splash Zone while on Magnum or Gemini. It's really big and colorful.

As long as it's not a dinosaur thing for CP.....I will not look forward to seeing them add a separate attraction where you pay 5 plus dollars to see stupid fake robot dinos in the park...

As for Leviathan, I went to CW's site and it looks neat, but....too similar to Behemoth IMO :) But good move anyway for that park, whose coasters, besides Behemoth, seem old and a little outdated...

Agreed....kinda like Holiday World building a second water coaster after Wildabeest, but I am excited to see B&M making the move to giga coasters.

I would like to see CP work with B & M again down the road. I think the wing-rider concept has a lot of potential. Who knows, perhaps the "coastermania" announcement next year will see CP go with a different manufacturer for the first time in over a decade.

^^ I would love to see a wing rider at the park. I'd say at least a 150-170ft tall one would be a good height. Along with some new types of inversions.

All I got to say is dinos and somthing for sc. I bet you I'm right well see tomorrow though.

Trust me. If not call me out tomorrow!

You're most likely right...but it would be so awesome if they gave us a reason to call you out, because that would mean we got something better (:

Soak City needs a huge upgrade.

C'Mon CP don't disappoint 4 years in a row. No wonder they are worrying about attendance

This is the greatest post I have ever read, on any site, ever.

And as someone who has taken more than a few rides on Behemoth, Magnum and MF, in my opinion, Leviathan looks like a fantastic addition to Wonderland.

I think that you definitely can make the comparison between Magnum versus MF and Behemoth vs Leviathan.

Behemoth, much like Diamondback, is all about the extended periods of air time. Leviathan looks as though it's going to be all about speed, and the combination of airtime hills followed by smooth but forceful transitions, much like the differences between Magnum and MF. Just because Behemoth and Leviathan are made by the same manufacturer, doesn't mean that they are going to offer the same ride experience. It looks like they took the best of Behemoth, the best of Nitro and multiplied it by MF. No one should be complaining!

As well, it seems like the trend of late (particularly in North America) are coasters without inversions...could this be the fallout from SOB, and all of those horrible Vekoma clones?

One last note...for any of the more experienced posters...with this costing $28 million, what are the odds of another huge Capital Investment for the company next year?

Didn't diamondback come the yeear after maverick? Or was that two years after.

It came out exactly two years after Maverick! 2009 to be exact!
