The Beast Vortex King Cobra Adventure Express Diamondback

The park opens at 10am, maybe they were just not many people over in that area of the park yet. When I went to Carowinds last April, many of the rides were walk on for the few hours the park was open.

And Cedar Point is not trying to Beat Kings Island in anything, Same Company, they want both parks to make losts of money!

I ride in 7-1, and never have a problem of roughness. Yes some of the trainsitons are bad, but I have ridden far more worse rough steel coasters. Vekoma anyone?

I paid 169 for my Cedar Fair Platinium Pass, I wouldn't not want to see the price go higher. I do feel that I get a great value though. I have been to KI and CP about 5 times each, plus used my pass at Soak City at Cedar Point. I have used my pass 11 times this year so far, my pass is more then paid for, and we about half way thru.

That could very well be stock footage of Batman Knight Flight which is now Dominator Hard telling!

This post makes no sense what so ever. I'm pretty sure that all of the rides they use in the commerials are indeed at a Cedar Fair Park!

Ya Not sure what that was about, I don't see what it matters where you sit if your a fast laner or a non fast laner. That sorta things really upsets people, I would have reported this to GR.

When they start this? I think you may be confused on how they have the lane blocked off from where you used to go thru to get the front of the train? I have not seen them tell non Fast Lane users they could only ride in the last 4 cars.

Ya I have no idea what this is, it would have been nice to explain what this is in your post!

I think something is glitched with this whole unlimited 20 oz soft drink wrist bands, I mean $5 dollars for all day 20 oz soft drinks, that's too good to be true, When one drink alone cost over $4.00. Even with the soviner cups you pay 1.99 for a refill or $5 for the band, so it takes at least 3 refills to get your money's worth!

Soak City At Cedar Point, and Cedar Point are two different parks, there for you can use your PP to gain entry into the waterpark, and your pass to gain entry into Cedar Point. However if your planning on leaving one or the other to enjoy the other park you have to get your hand stamped to reenter. Soak City stamps one hand, and Cedar Point does the other.

The new lockers were sold out? Ptoo. I thought they added more. Yes all of the lockers were sold out. When you walked up the the kiosk to get your locker, every on of them said sold out, and even the workers were letting people know they were sold out!

In 2005, the height requirement for what was then Beastie (now Woodstock Express) was raised from 36" to its current 40". I wonder if the changes you mentioned happened the same year. It's possible, but I could have thought that the requirments were changed in either 2000, or 2001, as I worked at the park those years. When I worked at AE in 1999 I know the requirement was only 44 inches. We need to find some old park guides that that have the requirements listed. LOL

I think they should have left the old lazy river intact, and bulit a brand new Action River, like they have at CP, and other waterparks.

That's one the reason's why I didn't even chance leaving my stuff laying around last Saturday when every locker was sold out, I just didn't get to swim.

Glad to see that they are improving the program. And not walk on lane!

Interesting note, AE and Racer used to only have a 44 inch height requirement. Both rides were changed to 48 inches in the early 00's.

I'm not sure, I'll have to check the next time I go!

I have not seen anything about the wristbands at CP even for the Sovernier cups.

Any Idea how Canada's Wonderland does there Fast Lane? I'm going there later this summer. Wonderland has been constantly tweaking it throughout the season to get the best balance of Fast Lane users and regular guests. I haven't used Fast Lane yet, but based on what I've seen during my multiple visits, Fast Lane users are held back before entering any coaster station. When it comes time to let more guests into the station, the attendant will usually split it up about 1/3 Fast Lane users and 2/3 regular line. Sometimes more, sometimes less all depending on the number of guests in each queue. The Fast Lane queue for Leviathan on some of the busier days so far has reportedly been 15-20 minutes (compared to a 90-120 minute wait in the regular queue). See this is what they should be doing at KI for when it comes to DB. They litterally let everyone in the Fast Lane que in at the same time, sometimes making the normal line stand still for over 10 minutes.

They will hold Fast Lane back, instead of letting them walk right up to the station and right into a row.

Cedar Point manages Fast Lane differently then KI Does.

Don't except to walk on using Fast Lane at Cedar Point though!

Back in 2009 I was going to Upgrade a KI Gold Pass to Platinium at Dorney Park, I even knew how much more it was going to cost, but decided not to do it, I have had Platinium now since 2010. So I'm sure it's possible, it's just it's Cedar Fair, so they do what they want! Make it up as they go along it seems.
