  1. They don't have to worry about wind speeds or anything like that with wood coasters since they can fabricate the supports on the ground. With steel you already have fabricated parts so you may not be able to work some days because of wind. Kings Island isn't behind on progress. Then announced the ride in July. Thats super early compared to any other Cedar Fair ride recently besides Gatekeeper for obvious reasons.

  2. I love getting Larosas on my meal plan since I am from Cincinnati and live in Cleveland. Looks like I won't be doing it labor day weekend. Crowds usually aren't that bad but I am used to Cedar Point crowds. I still love going labor day weekend but I can see why the locals don't

  3. I rode Mean Streak 4 times today and was lucky enough to get a trim free ride on my last one. I thought it was better than The Beast!!! It had crazy laterals and some good airtime. I was very impressed but sad that it couldn't always be that good. Unfortunately the MCBR hit hard and was as slow as usual after. The ride had potential. Now I wouldn't actually be mad if GCI took it over.

    The fact that its closing in September and not the end of the year make me think either an overhaul is in order or something really big will go in its place.  

     

    Keep in mind that winters in Sandusky are harsher than they are down here. Even with Cedar Point opening later than Kings Island, the weather doesn't give them as much time to work.

     

    The only problem is wind. The lake effect snow isn't a problem until you go west towards Cleveland and PA and even a little NY.
