Great pics Walt.


I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they wake up in the morning, that's as good as they're going to feel all day.

Excellent! I´ve really missed a video of this ride. I like that the audio is raw - with my eyes closed, It´s like being there again :)

Great update Walt.

When I first saw the pitcher of DD on the home page I thought that DD had been sold. I kind of been over looking this ride when I visit CP but this year, not only because it mite be soled but it really looks like a great thrill ride I'm definitely going to ride it. (for the first time)


RIDE ON, and ON and ON and ON and ON and ON...

Is the "iPod" a video for your iPod? If so, whnever I click on it, it always shows me the page that says"this page cannot be found". I wanna put this video on my iPod!:( You did a great job Walt

The web server seems to have a problem with the m4v file. I'm recreating it as a QuickTime file. Once it's up there, you'll be able to use iTunes to convert it for the iPod.

DD is always....always the first ride we go on.

Its a great rush...a short line....and a good way to "break in" the stomach. :)

Great work Walt, boy it would be nice to still pay $11.95 to get
in the park.

Yeah, those photos are Suh-Weet. I love Demon Drop.

Did anyone else see those Demon Drop Keychains for sale on Cedarpoint.com. You all better buy up, before they are gone. I'll keep mine nestled away next to my Banshee shirt.

"Before you know it, that Maverick's got the drop on ya."

The video is pretty sweet. I just wonder if it breaks down alot with all the mechanical moving parts and stuff.

Or a past Demon Drop ride host. ;)

My question is how did you get all the "behind the scenes" photos?

That's easy, he got behind the scenes.
