Skyhawk and MaXair

On Cedarpoint.com should they have a video of Skyhawk and maxair because all that they have are the animations. I want a video of both of them!

Atleast give them a chance to open Skyhawk... ;)

You can't really make a POV for either of them because each seat delivers a different ride, which basically explains the reason that there is no Wicked Twister or Power Tower POV.

i don't really agree with that reasoning. i'd say that each seat in maXair delivers a similar ride (since its round) than a front seat/back seat difference on a coaster. POV rides are just to give you an "idea" of what the ride is like. not what EVERY ride is like. what's the difference between a raptor POV and wicked twister?

they probably just haven't gotten to them yet. but, i agree. they should add them. (once skyhawk opens!!)

Im not talking POV. (thats ok if they do but thats not what im talking about) In the animation they show the ride not from a seat but as if you were in line whatching it. I what that except not animation! *** Edited 4/22/2006 9:24:35 PM UTC by Your mom is to fat to ride TTD.***

I was already planing ongetting some video on the 6th of Skyhawk. I'll try to get some of maXair as well.

That link includes the official park video of the ride (B-Roll) - exactly what you're looking for.

Thanks Walt, you the man!

What are you talking about, there are a lot of Wicked Twister POV's around or were you talking about on Cedar Point's website?

I was talking on the website. Basically, your ride expierience on Wcked Twister differs on where you sit in the train, because obviously the front of the train gets a lot more twisting than the back on the front spike, and vice-versa.

Oh my... can you imagine the delight of the enthusiasts for a POV from any seat... you just click your favorite seat, and watch the POV... That would be a lot of work... but enthusiasts, and people warming up to rides would love it

There would be no point to that. Point of view videos on roller coasters only work from the front of the train, when there's nothing in front of you. I know that I wouldn't want to watch a POV from the backseat, and all I see is the rest of the train in front of me.

A camera facing backwards at the back of the train, however, is another story. :)

I love the view from the back of the train. I love seeing all the people in front of you on the coaster twisting below you :-D

Saying you wouldn't like it and saying it wouldn't work are 2 different things. Maybe you wouldn't like it. But I think it would be very cool.

POV - Point of View

There are many points of view on a ride. Not everyone likes to sit in the front. (I do) But, I also like sitting in the back.

Hey on the ride cycle video it has a song playing and the words are come on baby dance dance dance. Does anybody know who sings that because i thought it was a cool song for the 7 seconds i heared it? I would like to download that song. Weird question I know. *** Edited 4/28/2006 12:01:30 AM UTC by Your mom is to fat to ride TTD.***
