I was so excited to be able to take my family to Cedar Point twice last year after not being able to go for a couple of years. Cedar Point was one of my favorite places to visit when my husband and I were young and able to take those roller coaster back to back. Last year, Cedar Point had the 14th highest attendance at the park in the nation (according to the Themed Entertainment Association) which is awesome since they ARE the Roller Coaster Capital of the World!
This year is super special however: This is the first year the GateKeeper is running! I haven’t been on the ride yet.. all the chances I had to go to the park, I couldn’t go. However, my family and I are planning a trip this year so we can take a ride! Here is a video of an experience of the ride.
- Longest wing coaster – 4,164 feet
- Fastest non-launched wing coaster – 67 mph
- Tallest inversion on any roller coaster – 170 feet
- Longest drop on a wing coaster – 164 feet
- Most inversions on a wing coaster – 6
- Most roller coaster track at one park – 56,702 feet
- Most rides at one park – 72
I’m hope I’m making you want to take a drive to Sandusky sometime this summer to take on the GateKeeper!
