New York has a lovely collection of old parks. I'm glad Seabreeze maintains its collection of classics as well as new thrills.
Me too.
Back in the day, Gyrosphere would most certainly have cracked the Top 10. It was an indoor Scrambler with an incredible light show and E.L.O.'s "Fire On High" blasting throughout. My wife greatly misses those days.
Wish it were still there.
I miss that ride too
This brings back lots of memories growing up in Central NY. Since Syracuse doesn't have any amusement parks of its own (unless you count Sylvan Beach a half-hour away) we often drove the hour out to Rochester to Seabreeze, and it's probably my favorite childhood park, even more so than Darien Lake. Sure the rides may not be as thrilling as SFDL, but you have a very well-rounded collection of both the classic coasters and water rides and flats in-between. There was never any insane long lines, the lake view is gorgeous, the park has always been clean and well-maintained and it has always been extremely affordable. Especially if you live in Rochester since seemingly every employer offers good discounts for admission. While I live in PA now and am closer to all the more well-known parks like Knoebels and Hershey, Seabreeze (and the catchy jingle from the commercials) will always be near and dear to me. "Come get your summer!"
Very cool!
Amazing video, cheers 👏
Thanks!
Bobsleds, Jackrabbit, and Whirlwind! Some very very old attractions but quite fun.
Jack Rabbit and Bobsleds are classics.
I go here almost every year, ride almost everything, I'm going back in a few days and I'm very excited!
Have fun!
Just got out of the park, had a great time!
Neat. Love the woodie and the log flume.
Me too.
For anyone confused as to how the log flume manages to get that No.1 spot, I can confirm that the drop is absolutely nuts - if it weren't for the poor bookkeeping on the topic, I could confidently say that it's the steepest traditional log flume out there (particularly notable for operating without restraints). It's also special for its capacity, which rivals that of Jack Rabbit and easily tops every other coaster in the park - you've gotta bear in mind that Seabreeze has a pretty modest attendance, of course, so weigh the importance of capacity as you choose to. I've operated it many times, and it's always fun to be positioned at the top of the hill to see the reactions of the riders.
Other neat little comments I can share include:
- Log Flume is the only ride at the park that utilizes three operators, a consequence of it having separate load and unload areas in addition to an operator at the top of the hill that primarily serves to verify the proper positioning of riders. Whirlwind uses two, and a few popular flat rides rides may at particularly busy times do so as well.
- While Helix certainly is the best waterslide, be ready to wait a long time for it - especially on weekends and other busy days. There's quite a bit of spacing between riders.
- Canobie wasn't exaggerating - the Time Machine has a very short cycle, totaling 90 seconds including the substantial amount of time it takes for the ride to start and stop. That being said, it rarely has a long wait and is definitely worth a ride (on the condition that you're confident about fitting into the restraint, that is).
- Bobsleds, while being historically important and a surprisingly enjoyable experience, has a painfully bad capacity. Choose carefully when to ride it, since the line always takes longer than you think it will.
- Revolution 360, a Zamperla Disk'O that wasn't included on this list, has some really fun floater and a ride cycle that is definitely on the longer side. Pair this with its strong capacity and the lakeside views it provides, and you've got a very solid option that is often a walk-on.
Such a cool park!
i'm amazed that the Pirate Ship ride makes you queasy, but the Screaming Eagle doesn't, but hey we're all built and wired differently! I vividly remember my dad throwing up his guts after going on a Pirate ship ride back in the day too lol
i always appreciate your fair reviews on flat rides. I get that coasters are way more thrilling but cmon no reason to shit on flat rides lol
It's weird how swinging ships are the one thing that can do me in, but not other pendulum rides.
@@CanobieCoaster we're all unique! I used to love Tea Cups, but just thinking of Tea Cups now just makes me want to barf these days lol
Interesting and amazing park!
Sure is.
Happy to have grown up with this park a 10 minute drive from home. Jack rabbit and their now relocated Quantum Loop were two of my first coasters I ever rode, and they’ll always hold a place in my heart. Great review!
Thanks!
That’s one of the best log flumes ever. One of the most ridiculous airtime moments ever
It's so shocking.
I honestly didn't even notice the log flume. I didn't want to get wet anyway, since I would be driving onto Darien Lake after a couple hours here. If I get back, I'll be sure to check it out.
It's worth it.
Jack Rabbit looks like a wonderful first big coaster for kids!
I can see that.
Holy crap, that log flume drop is insanely steep
Yes it is.
Log flume for the win!
Yup!
Nice
Thanks!
Technically speaking, Seabreeze is the closet park to my home. It is due south, but there is a giant lake in the way.
Ah!
😅 Looks like numerous viewers are in a state of shock on your comment about swinging ships especially after viewing all the insane rides you've been on throughout the years. Perhaps a top 5 Canobie Coaster's queasiest rides of all time video will lesson our shock😅
It's weird how basic swinging ships can cause me problems, but not bigger and wilder pendulums.
I have to say I am a bit surprised because I didn't think there was enough rides there for a countdown.
If you used just coasters, no.
Huh, so it's not the lateral spinning that gets you queasy, but the up and down motion...I am the opposite. Thank you for the review.
Does this park have wrist bands for all day use, or is pay per ride?
It's an admission based park, same model as a Six Flags or Cedar Fair park as far as I'm aware. Granted, my info is more than a decade out of date from when my grandparents used to take me as a kid, but I'd assume it's the same since it's still under the same owners.
It's admission based now.
pirate ships make YOU queasy?? I legit thought you could handle anything, like you’ve been on some of the most intense flats in the world 😂 but seriously that seems to be a kinda common problem with those ride anyways
It's weird. I'm fine with the larger pendulums like frisbees, but basic swinging ships can make me nauseous.
If it rains at hersheypark, will all the (major) rides stay closed for the whole day or reopen a few minutes after it stops raining?
Speaking from experience, they reopened much after a thunderstorm. Storm runner took a while though
@@zachcoastercrazy4032 do you remember how long storm runner took to reopen?
@@ireallydontknowwhattoputhere45 I think it stopped raining at 645, and it may have started running at 8, though it may have been broken down in the time I saw it before it ran again. It also rained at the start of my next day and did not start for maybe 2 hours. So you should ride quickly if the weather looks bad
@@zachcoastercrazy4032 thanks, helps a lot
@@ireallydontknowwhattoputhere45 you are welcome
I'm not a huge fan of how the pirate ship type rides make me feel either. I find it interesting that those kinds of rides make you queasy and not some of these flat rides at a European fair.
It's only swinging ships that cause issues for me. Not other pendulums.
Off topic: does anyone know what is going on with the accident at "El Toro"? Will it ever open? Is this the park's fault?
ElToroRyan has a video on it.
Do you think that Log Flume's drop is steeper than Goliath's first drop at Six Flags Magic Mountain?
It feels it.
You said pirate ships makes you sick, and then recommend a *looping* ship on the 4th place...
Only regular swinging ships make me sick for some reason. I'm fine with other pendulum rides.
revolution 360 didnt make this list?
Just missed it.
I thought the flyers were quite good too.
They were a bit slow for my tastes.
So jack rabbit is older than cyclone?
Yes, Cyclone-1927, Jack Rabbit-1920
It is.
Kennywood knockoff?!
It has an old-timey feel as well, but the rides are different.
