  • I did this

  • go there all the time favorite ride Skater

  • Love those old coasters with the up-side-down L shaped layout. Nice vid.

  • ahhhh! i butt was flying when i ride there

  • its the same scream pattern wa wheeeeeeeeeee wa wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

  • quit screaming, its just a 75 year old ride that could fall apart at any second

    -_-

  • @doctadude1230 lol i so agree

  • For all you idiots who think this ride sucks Blue Streak at Cedar Point is almost the exact same height so shut up and if you STILL dont think this ride is fun then why are you watching it anyway?

  • 8 People hate classic woodies

  • guys this ride is 80 years old u must respect

  • I hate it when some girl screams right in your ear -.-

  • Whimps why would u scream on that ride

  • @AlexisRocksSocks i think its just fun to scream it completes the experience

  • I totally loove this ride, its awesome

  • Why Were Those Stupid Girls Screaming Its Not Even Scary :L

  • i was going to go on this but my mom would not let me,she would of fainted anyway

  • this is my favorite ride there :)

  • I want to go on this now so bad. lol. I'd be screaming before the ride even starts. :)

  • I'll be here in 12 hours! So excited!

  • This ride is much more intense in real life. It was my very first rollercoaster :) I loooove the airtime it gives and it's worth the half hour wait. Im just hoping that with untamed this ride will have a shorter wait!!!!! Lol :D

  • I miss this place:(

  • Even though this one doesn't look that fun from videos/pictures. It (and most wooden rollercoasters) are actually surprisingly fun. There's just something about them.

  • went on this today, back seats are the best<3

  • i love that ride<3 but i always feel like i'm gonna fly out lol

  • the new coaster.. untamed is worth anything!

  • Just a word of advice to anyone who's going to ride this: TAKE OFF YOUR SEAT BELT!! or at least loosen it as much as you can. Your butt will fly off the seat and it's SO MUCH FUN! (don't worry, the lap bars keep you from flying out lol) If you don't loosen or take off your seat belt, then this ride is no fun.

  • i would love to here them screaming on a scary coaster.

  • most annoying scream ive ever heard

  • omg i went on this today i was sooooooooo scared ( btw it was my first roller coaster ) me and my friend ( her first too ) went on it together and we were hugging each other the whole time!!! and screamed why are we doing this!!!!!!!??? that was my first and last roller coaster

  • OMG it's epic!!!! xD

  • I rode this ride. it's so fun! you don't get sick or anything! but your butt flies off the seat...

  • I am going on the 15th!

  • @CharmedChick10 same here is it for school

  • I went last friday.

    I went on the star blaster

    Corkscrew

    Boston Tea Party 10 times at night, (there was no ride XD)

    That was my first time at Canobie but it was the best experience ever :D

  • this year i'm gonna not be a wimp and go on this and the starblaster

  • @chaos9115 i went in 5th grade

  • @chaos9115 It's awesome (: they have new rides to! make sure to go on the turkish twist!

  • Thumbs up if you thought this shit was gonna break riding on it...

  • @snowarticwater same! but this one was a fun first:)

  • this ride sucks

  • uggh, my friend and i were sitting in the back, and every time we went down a hill, the cart would come off the track a little and we'd smack our tail bones on the seat!

    it hurt, but it was still fun ;)

  • @PeeweeLamby obviously you know nothing about roller coaster safety. There are wheels under the track too.

  • @CanobieFanatic i don't know but it really hurt

  • @PeeweeLamby airtime that's what it's called

  • @PeeweeLamby THIS coaster hurt you? You better toughen up boy...this is probably one of the smoothest wooden coaster on the planet. You kids are so spoilt but the steel giants, you don’t know what a good ride is

  • @Coasterdude02149 i don't know, i guess it might have been one time

  • @PeeweeLamby No, it still is. Rode it 5 or 6 times today-front, back and middle...it is still as smooth as it has ever been. You want to see what a traditional wooden coaster feels like, try Predator at Darien Lake or Cyclone at 6 Flags NE....Yankee Cannonball doesn’t even qualify in my book as a woodie, it’s far too smooth for that. It’s more along the lines of El Toro, a hybrid. Not a Canobie fan but they really do maintain this coaster well-they have to, it’s their signature ride.

  • best ride there

  • Been on this coaster many times and it is a classic. If you like wooden rollercoasters you got to visit the park and ride it. Although the park, in recent years, have removed some classic rides (like the very rare Satilite Jets which Canobie named Kosmojets and a classic Paratrooper and Galaxi Coastter) it still has that old charm of family parks from the past.

  • I don't care how high it is. For some reason wooden roller coasters scare the crap out of me.

  • man all rides suck at canobie lake!!! six flags makes canobie look like shit!

    and this ride aint nothing!!!!!! get on the superman ride now that will make ur heart stop!

  • where is this?

  • LOL im heading there in like 15 minuts!!!!!!!! Wish Me Luck On tht Ride!!!

  • @Gummykid19 shut up that park is so pussy

  • 0:34 the part that makes me crap my pants

  • BTW thumbs up for THE NEW ROLLERCOSTER RIDE COMING IN 2011!!!

  • @CK199613 i went on that yesterday it was awesome it goes straight up and straight down

  • @CK199613 I went on that rollercoaster already and is fucking awesome!

  • @CK199613 i was going to go on the untamed but my dad was to scared --__-

  • this is my all time favorite ride at conbie :)

  • this is one of my favorite rides at canobie. the only thing is they shold worn you about neck/back injuries xD

  • I HATED THIS RIDE SOOO MUCH WHEN I WENT ON IT!! I've only been on it once, and i was screaming soo hard. Every slope lifted me out of my seat.....................I can't wait to go again next time ;)

  • where are the flags?

  • my but lifted every time there was a drop or a hill. lol

  • @jwsman15 have you every been on boulder dash at lake compounce?? it makes this ride look like a kiddy coaster

  • @1996butters yeah im gonna go there pretty soon.

  • @jwsman15 its so awesome :D

  • @1996butters Have you ever been on the bizzaro at six flags? it makes boulder dash look like its for toddlers.

  • @areosmith54 well think of it this way boulder dash is a WOODEN COASTER that most likley goes much faster then bizzaro....the only diffrence is (ive never been on bizzaro btw so idk if this is right) bizzaro has loops or something

  • @1996butters No actually it doesnt and the wooden part doesn make a difference but bizzaro goes 80 mph which looks slow but is much faster then the boulder dash. and yes it does have loops but again theres another difference. bizzaro goes faster.

  • i went on it yesterday and the first slope just lifted me out of my seat i felt like i was going to fall out and the WHOLE time me and my bro were LITERALLY screaming "OOOOHHHHH FUCKKK OHHHH FUCKING SHIT HOLY SHIITTTTTT FUUUUCK!!!!1" lol.

  • how fast is it

  • @toddshobby it says 35 mph

  • try riding front like me, areneline, and ,maybe the scariest ride evaaaaa

  • I love this ride :D

  • sorry but this cannot compare to six flags

  • @scooter2494 I know :P

  • @scooter2494 yes u can compare canobie is one of the safest amusement parks in new england...has any1's leg got cut off on a rollar coaster at canobie?? no i dont think so

  • @scooter2494 You're right...shit flags wishes they had a coaster that ran this well and this smooth. There isn't a wooden coaster in ANY 6 flags than can hold a candle to Yankee Cannonball. Canobie has taken care of this ride, unlike shit flags that throws them up and lets them rot.

  • My first coaster ever. went to day. the climb up wasn't to bad but the drop was so scary. It was dark and I was in the back.

  • the yankee cannonball was my first real roller coaster ride ever lol

  • Did this today! =]

  • Small coaster but it's really good. It's got a fun ride, a lot of airtime, and it's surprisingly smooth for a ride its age.

  • I LUV THIS RIDE!!! i was on it and i was literally flying out of my seat!!!!!

  • WAAAAAAAAAAAAAY Better at night!

  • went on this two days ago..the ride rocks it might not have the highest speed or biggest drop but since it was made in the 1930's its pretty cool its still around. but the best part is this ride is wicked fun!

  • Ikr

  • the drops are like 2 inches

  • @UDSMiNSaN3CRazZz31 ya true but it still is pretty fun to go on

  • @UDSMiNSaN3CRazZz31 the other rides in this park lower your expectations to make this ride look like Kingda Ka

  • @UDSMiNSaN3CRazZz31 if you have ever been on it you'd think differently. with every drop, you get a huge jolt. also the drops are like 50ft up untill the end where they are like 10 ft.

  • @UDSMiNSaN3CRazZz31 Its called airtime buddy, I think this is better than alot of rides at Six Flags Great Adventure....

  • @UDSMiNSaN3CRazZz31 The drops may be small, but drops are only half the fun. Yankee Cannonball is a good coaster for its age and most of the fun is feeling like the coaster is going to break apart. lol

  • @UDSMiNSaN3CRazZz31 no thats just how it looks but they are really a lot deeper, thats what i said to the other video's too but then i saw this one and realized thats juat how the look on the camera

  • @UDSMiNSaN3CRazZz31 300 foot drops do not always make a coaster.

  • @UDSMiNSaN3CRazZz31 I don't think you completley understand the ride. It's not supposed to have a big drop. The point of this ride is to give you the thrill of going up and down unexpectedly while the limit of your cart is at a really high speed. Drops are boring. There just the same everytime. With this ride, you get whats not at all what you thought you would get.

  • @UDSMiNSaN3CRazZz31 actually, it drops a good distance and its really fast.i was screaming the entire ride.

  • the back is way better! the cart like comes off the track and its so fun if u take u seat belt off

  • I sat front seat in this with my dad yesterday, and got some major airtime. It's a great coaster.

  • I'm from Montreal and used to ride it with my parents on our yearly summertime vacation trips to Hampton Beach....in the 80's...damn i miss those humps and bumps at night...sweet classic bunny hills woody ride ....real hip hop style...i was not even a teen and now i'm 32 FUCK

  • Looks fun, but relatively modest.

  • I'll admit this is a pretty fun ride and it was my second coaster ever, and my first wooden coaster, but it lacks excitement. It is just a few tiny hills... :(

  • i loved this ride XD

  • I'm going to canobie lake park next saterday :)

  • im going to ride that on saturday !!!!

  • I LOVE THIS RIDE. hahaha this is the ride that got my friend (who hates rollercoasters) to get ready for the bizarro!

  • I used to piss myself k\just thinking about coasters, now i love them.

  • when i went there was an HOUR AND A HALF LINE.

  • I LOVE CANOBIE haha im going tomorrow the corkscrew is my favorite ride

  • @JilliandMaddieShow10 The good thing about that ride is that there usually is never a line for it :D

  • @TVMAN1112 there always is a line lol but its only like a minute and a half

  • i went on this one its so fucken fun

  • I admire how you actually know how to hold a camera. Thankyou!!!

  • That ride is insnae i hate it so much jk i <3 love itttt

  • oh this rides awesome! if u put your hands up after the first hill, it actually feels like your flying. the only thing was that it always has a long line, but it doesnt feel that long because there's a antique car ride and a stage near it.

  • went on this today! sat in the front seat, it's actually really fun for being a small roller coaster.

  • oh i screamed sooo hard on this!

  • usually i hate roller coasters, but this one i might go on...if i ever go back

  • This ride is a perfect example of how rides do not need to be oversized and super fast to be really fun.

  • Way to go with the comments Canobie Fan. You not only post superb coaster videos but you always keep the comments that have no true value in their proper places! Thanks for posting this fantastic video of the most under-rated coaster on the planet, the Yankee Cannonball.

    Rob/Boston

  • this ride is awesome but its only fun when ur in the front row cuz its scarier and its fun doing no hands

  • i miss the round up they got to bring it back! Does anyone work there i can talk too?

  • The extreme drops aren't part of the fun. The fact that it's a really good, old ride is just amazing - it's fallen a couple of times, but damn. That Yankee Cannonball is made from all wood, basically. It's also bumpy as Hell. You have to be a true NH'er to love it and appreciate it<3.

  • this looks fun but there r NO extreme drops

  • omg i wen there and that rollar coaster borke my chin!! lol but it was ok! i love the corkscrew the most!

  • i love this ride, but me and my friend were in the 1st row and we kept bouncing like up and down in out seats! but my sister and her friend were in the back row and they didnt bounce at all?!!? i didnt get itt!

  • i <3 dis riddee! you kno how long dis line is well me & my cousin didnt wanna waiit so our moms & her sister & a frieeeeeend did. We went on the neww ride and we were afraid tht we wouldnt make it bak in time 2 ride wit dem sooo when da ride ended we rann SOO fast to the line kuz daay were close 2 gooin on and so we went thru all da pplz!! but we didnt here the guy sayy come up ths way the one where ppl get off sooo we went the wayy with all the ppls and ppl were gettin piissed! evn da workerz!

  • i rode it during a thunder storm. as we turned the corner lightning struck a house across the lake

  • It's a great ride! I still like this ride more than the bigger ones like Bizarro! The Yankee Cannonball is just great!!!!

  • this ride is sooo much fun, but its a long wait :l

  • I know I waited an hour and a half to ride for a minute and 30 second

  • this ride is fun, but since i was sitting all the way in the back, i'd slam my tailbone on the seat every time we went down a hill. ow! fun, though.

  • I liked this ride, but I am terrified of wooden coasters.... I screamed the whooole time... :(

  • i love this ride! the first hill is probably the scariest and the 3rd to last turn is pretty bad too cause it feels like you are going to fall off and land in the middle of the parking lot.

  • Wow. You can even SEE the airtime.

  • i love this ride so much

  • I LOVE THAT RIDE!!!!!!!!!

  • i sat in the front for my first time, in the dark, it was amazing :)

  • yeahhhh!! i love that one. i went there like a month ago that was awesome.

  • i went on it and it was a little scary for me but it was fun! i sat way in the last seat

  • going this monday going on this and the corkscrew for my first time

  • I think its time for canobie lake to build a new coaster

  • they bulit castway islands in july 2009

  • no castaway island was built in 2005 sorry

  • never been on this ride but im goingthere in a couple days and going on this ride : )

  • have fun waiting in an hour-and-a-half-long line ;]

  • lol i will. but ive been to disney world so i know how long the lines can get ; ]

  • lol good ur prepared

  • haha yup. how long is the actual ride?

  • probably about 2-3 minutes long (more or less) its about 75% worth waiting in line for - but that's just my opinion. anyway, have fun! :)

  • oh ok thanks i will!

  • It is one minute and Fifty seconds of pure fun

  • Actually, though it says it lasts a minuet fifty two, the ride only lasts fifty two seconds, 30 is getting up the hill and getting going and another 30 to slow the coaster and bring it in and let everyone up. Me any my aunt counted how long the ride lasted while we were waiting in line :) oh and it started to pour as soon as we got on so everyone I was with was just like "o shit" lol it felt like hail pelting my face Dx

  • it is fun to be in the front

  • SupermanR.O.S./bizarro all the way/ now that's a real coaster!! Sfne

  • @fishininvenice yes. You have eyes. SFNE all the way.

  • Wow thar ride sucks balls canobie lake is is kiddie park if u want real rides go to six flags

  • @fishininvenice Six Flags=too expensive and too far away. Canobie it is.

  • @DevSodDribble Six Flags = Season pass pays for itself after 2 visits, over 4 times the amount of rides, and, a lot of the rides at Canobie aren't even unique. They either have them all at Six Flags New England, or have a better, improved type.

  • @ValidCarrot Six Flags is a two hour drive from where I live, and that's if traffic is good. Canobie is more like 3 miles from my home. Last I looked gas isn't getting cheaper, so how does that 'pay for itself'?? Not to mention CLP is only like $19 or $20 after 5 PM. As far as the rides not being 'unique', none of these parks build their rides themselves. They buy them from other companies based on space and affordability.

  • @DevSodDribble: For you, Canobie may be better due to the distance but if you ignore that, (Which you should because you are looking at the potential of the park not the convenience of getting to it) Six Flags is better in potential. That is the way I see it. SFNE is over an hour and 15 mins. from my house and Canobie is a tad shorter but I still prefer SFNE. As for the "unique" rides, I meant between CLP and SFNE not with other manufacturers.

  • @ValidCarrot I don't get what you mean by 'in potential'; Canobie is a survivor in this area, long after Benson's Animal Park, Pirate's and Midway (Salisbury Beach), Whalom Park and all those others are gone. Its over 100 years old and they have no room left to add anything new (Without getting rid of something old.) Six Flags is like, who cares? Just another place that's too far away and costs too much. Some of us only go to places like this once a year if we're lucky.

  • @DevSodDribble: Anyways, it doesn't matter who built the ride. We are talking about the rides altogether as a park so it doesn't matter who built them, it matters which park they are in. (Sorry i ran out of space in other reply)

  • i got a major headache after this ride. and its pretty scary since its so old and it looks like its gonna break.
