I'll answer for my son. It was Iron Dragon last year, and this year he can't ride it.

I think mine was either Iron Dragon or Blue Streak

My first visit to Cedar Point was in 1973. (Yes. I'm old.) That year, there were four coasters in the park: Blue Streak, Cedar Creek Mine Ride, Jumbo Jet (located about where GateKeeper's station is) and Wildcat (located, at the time, where Windseeker and the Extreme Sports Stadium are).

I'm pretty sure my first coaster was Blue Streak. I know I wasn't tall enough to ride Jumbo Jet.

It was Bluestreak for me.

Bluestreak...maybe '76 or '77.

Magnum for me at CP, but Double Loop then Corkscrew at Geauga Lake first many years before

Blue Streak. 1966.

Actually, now that I think about it, it was the Allan Herschell Little Dipper in 1963. It was in Kiddieland, where Kiddie Kingdom is now, thereabouts where maXair currently resides.

First coaster at CP: Raptor in 2003
First coaster: Viper at Darien Lake 1997


Remember, it's nice to be important- but it's more important to be nice.

Cedar Creek Mine Ride, 1984. And then we followed it with White Water Landing.

Cedar Creek Mine Ride, my first CP coaster and a favorite ride as a young kid.


I'd rather be in my boat with a drink on the rocks,
than in the drink with a boat on the rocks.

Jr. Gemini when i was like three i'm told. My first visit to the park was when i was three months.


Leave the hypercoaster alone

I know my very first roller coaster was at Kings Island and at the time it was called the Beastie. My first roller coaster at Cedar Point had to be Iron Dragon.

Nice trip down memory lane.

Jr. Gemini was my first coaster ever, quickly followed by Cedar Creek Mine Ride. I loved, loved, loved Mine Ride, and rode that coaster hundreds of times as I built up the courage to ride my first big coaster, which of course was the Gemini. Of course, this is back in the day before even Magnum graced the skyline of CP, so yes, there was a time when Gemini was considered very big. :)


Promoter of fog.

Magnum was my first, but I was probably 10 the 1st time I went to Cedar Point.

I think Magnum w/dad. I was about 7 years old and closed my eyes half the ride.
