@TheBananaman380 its not smooth on any level and in my opinion is the least smooth rollercoaster ive ever been on but it is fun and the line is 5 mins long
@kclrox11 NOOOOOOOOO! dont go on it if you havent been on an upside down ride before. This thing is painful as hell and will give you a bad first impression. I say you should go on raptor first cause its more enjoyable and isnt scary at all
@everybodyhatesjessi I guess so but normally I look at a ride first and see if it looks fun or not. I don't ride all the rides and then decide if it was boring or fun.
every time i ride that ride when we start going up the first hill i am always SO scared that we are going to get stuck! it scares the S*** out of me !!!!!!!!!!
@GamerOnly62 This coaster is 35 years old...It was the first to have 3 inversions. And the first where park patrons could walk under the actual coaster. It pushed being upside down to a new level.
Video comment: don't shoot the video when the coaster is going to be looking into the sun! Pick a better time of day and get a camera with better iris control. Poor quality for a professional video.
I SO miss the Corkscrew that was once at the Myrtle Beach Pavilion in Myrtle Beach, SC. I know the Pavilion's gone, but back when it was going, they should've kept the Corkscrew. Atleast IT went upside down, that crappy Hurricane did Not! I still wish they'd re-open Freestyle Music Park. I miss riding the Time Machine / Led Zeppelin.
If Yankee Stadium(the orignal) is the Place that Ruth Built, would it be safe to say that Cedar Point was the place that "Ron" Built?
Ron Toomer's company, Arrow Dynamics, installed the Cork Screw and Gemini(1970s) and Magnum(1980s), all of which were state of the art for that period.
@raptorgold1212 THis ride was the shit back then (: HAHA! The fricken Mean Streak is the worst ride there! Shakes so fucking BAD! WORST RIDE BUILT = MEAN STREAK :)
My wife and I met in July of 1976. One of our first dates was to Cedar Point. We rode the Corkscrew, discovering later that both of us were too proud to tell each other that we didn't care for coasters!
i wish cedar point didnt cost a years worth of savings to go to with the family. staying the night, eating, getting in to the park all for one night with my family was almost $400 and thats even in the cheaper hotels with ticket discounts
@MrRanger1987 Sheesh it costed that much? Well, I guess so if you live far away from Cedar Point, I live in Cleveland so it's only a 1hr drive, and my sis works at Cleveland Clinic so our tickets are $22.
omg.. that ride is so boring and not scary. this is called corkscrew. but colosuss at thorpe park has 5 corkcrews and that aint called corkscrew :/ xx
this wuz my first roller coaster...i wuz six and i almost fell out b/c my shoulders wer so small i was slippin out of thed harness....but im fine...LOL:D
the coaster is so jerky i recommened if you go to cedar point the Mantis or Raptor best upside down rides I've been on. The corkscrew gave my sister almost whiplash. its so old now.
Thing is it's too simple! It's just like one of those 80s Demon roller coasters! the ones that go up, drop 60ft, do 2 loops, go onto a break run, turn around, then drop again, then do 2 corkscrews, then as small curve, then the break run back to the station! Although back then people thought "WOW!! THAT F**KING AMAZING!". The way they go about it it's as if a roller coaster like Sheikra or Griffon opened.
@FunAndOnly No bitch, it has 3. From the website: "It's yet another ride at Cedar Point that holds its place in coaster history. The Corkscrew was the first coaster to feature three inversions. It was also the first coaster to span a midway.
Guests can stand right underneath the ride's corkscrew element and see riders fly right above their heads!"
@incrediblecheer2010 yea sorry i looked it up and you are right. Demon was originally called turn of the century and featured two hills and two corkscrews. then in 1980 it was repainted and rethemed, the two hills were replaced with two vertical loops. so at the time when this was built demon only had two. my mistake
This gives you a headache, but it's good if you've never even been on a coaster before. Sometimes people's wallets fall out over one of the corkscrews.
Not exactly, you do go upside down 3 times, the first part is just an exact loop, the last 2 times u go upside down u do a corkscrew(seen near the end) its really fun ;)
lol this makes me remember how i love waiting 45 minutes in line for a 45 second ride
