Constrution at Vertigo site

A few weeks is a long time?

I generically label all rides, foods, gifts, games, etc. as 'attractions.' But thanks for your input.

There was a packing slip on one of those crates in that area from "Rebound Unlimited, Inc." Here's a web page of what we will see...this looks fun and interesting!!! http://www.bungeesport.com/saltoprofile.html
Tha doesnt look like something Cedar Point would purchase. It looks too.........how should I say it.......amatuer? If it was made by them then I think it would be a bit bigger to make it.....errr...CP worthy?

What???? Monkeys on trampolines???

Yes...that would have been my son on there earlier today. Hehehe It's pretty fun to watch when someone actually gets a "triple-backflip" going!

When I was there this weekend I only saw ride ops on it.

I just moved back to the states... I was living in London this summer, and they have those all over the place in tourist trap places. I have friends hwo have ridden them and said it was fun, but they definately don't seem Cedar Point worthy. It's a very carnival sort of thing.

ONE freeway stamp a day... ONE

They have one at this small amusement park in my town and i dont really like it because the harness hurts.

Ripcord and X-treme Trampoline are right next to each other. Perhaps now the people who are riding Ripcord are now going to see X-treme Trampoline and let do that too because it's in the area. Besides, I would do it while I am waiting for my time frame on Ripcord, since there is usually a 5 - 10 minute wait.

It is fun to watch. There were quite a few people jumping at closing time, Saturday night! $6 per session isn't too bad! My son loved it. He said you don't even notice the harnesses when you are jumping in the air.

Yea, I got a change to give it a try, and I must say it is worth the $6!! I talked to the manager of the company, who was there, and I told him that we had been speculating on what the site would become. He sounded happy, and told me to let everyone know, and "Tell everyone how cool it is". 8-D

Cedar Point here I come
~!~Augest 3~!~

Wait till the track comes in and this ride becomes even more interesting! ;)

I can't belive they actually put this "attraction" in Challenge park!

trips to CP:6 Dragster:2 MFer:6 Magnum: 13 Still warm less bugs, lines getting smaller, hey its August!

We have one of those at the Sawgrass Mills mall down here in Florida. I will agree with others that it doesn't look very CP-like but it is wildly popular. Don't know how much they charge. I want to say it was $4 for 4 minutes but I'm not sure. Sounds cheap by CP standards.

No matter where you go, there you are.

i want Vertigo back!!!

These new Challenge Park attractions may look cheap, but not everything at Cedar Point needs to be a world record breaking thrill ride. These small attractions add to the family atmosphere of the park and the resort. They also give people more things to spend money on during their trip and hopefully bring up the per capita spending that makes the park money.

If you not convinced just picture this. A family of four is on their way around the park to stay at Hotel Breakers, Lighthouse Point, or Sand Castle Suites. They get to their accomodations at 5:00 PM and don't have tickets to the park for that night. The kids can't wait to get in on some of the Cedar Point action the next day, so they walk over to the gates and are surrounded by all the excitement of Challenge Park. Maybe they spend $6 dollars to jump on the trampoline or they spend $5 dollars to climb the ladders and see which of them can get higher. Or maybe they choose to ride the go-karts or play miniature golf. In any of these cases, the family is kept happy, the park makes money, and the advantages of staying on the point become obvious.

...and enjoy the rest of your day at Cedar Point, The Am-aaaa-zement park!
