Holy fuck; this coaster is a monster. I can tell that the airtime is crazy on it. Well, time to finally visit Michigan and add that to my states list, and this coaster to my coaster list.
So many coasters have the main drop and then try to twist and turn you in all directions. This one is dips dips dips dips and then more dips. Incredible! There used to be a coaster at the former West View Park in Pittsburgh called The Dips that was mostly all dips like this coaster. To me, THAT is what makes for a great roller coater!! They used to call these types of coasters "Out and Back" coasters.
Blue Streak at Cedar Point 💯
Dips and fast and long! This sucker is just right. Family and I just spent two days at Kings Island and I have to say those coasters just are not up to shivering timbers. Michigan Adventures might not be a big coaster park but… it has an excellent coaster.
@@patricksquires77 I agree from what I've seen. I've never been there but I would sure love to plan a trip there!
I just rode this today. What a ride! the back seat is easily my most favorite spot to ride. The added whip over each hill gives great ejector pops and floater on the entire drop. Easily in the top 5 best wooden coasters in the USA. Sure it’s a little bumpy but it’s not too bad.
Totally agree, top 5 woodies for sure. A great ride anywhere on the train but definitely the best in the back. Hopefully Michigans Adventure and Cedar Fair continue to keep in it good condition.
Ride it in the back row and you will get a pop of ejector air as you are yanked down the first drop!
Since when did wooden rollercoasters being "a little bumpy" become such a big thing? That's one of the qualities a true wooden coaster enthusiast enjoys.....a little bumpiness, some strong laterals to throw you sideways, airtime and good pacing.
You rode this? You're making me jealous! Stop it! :)
You go so fast over the hills in the front you feel like your skating... such an amazing ride
Still incredible and still pretty damn underrated.
One of the world's best wooden coasters. I grew up out here and I tend to ride it multiple times a year. This year I'm buying a season pass.
Probably will never happen, but they deserve a new coaster up there in Michigan.
@@CoasterHabitat ikr, it's about time. Shivering Timbers is starting to show it's wear after carrying the park since 98'. I'm hoping we get some sort of steel coaster. I feel like the park could easily be revived with a new coaster.
This ride alone is worth the drive to this park. One of the nicest wooden roller coasters i've ever been on. The drops keep going for days. And (somewhat unfortunately) the park isn't very busy, so there's a good chance you can ride it multiple times with minimal lineups.
Just went here for thr first tome today when i was in the area visiting a friend. Fantastic ride and CCI at their best, but unfortunately its definitely showing its age. I will say that the park was much better than i was expecting. Add a BnM and 200+ foot coaster and it could be a good destination park for the state.
I believe there was a plan that never happened for a Chance Morgan hyper after Arrow went bankrupt. I believe the park has a height restriction of 200ft.
Yes...
So many memories made there, all over Michigan, 2019 with my Marissa, this was definitely one of our happy places...
Back when it stayed open at least until 9pm before Covid...
I miss that relationship & I miss West Michigan.
all good bro ull find a new one
It's supposed to be pretty good this year.
Most wooden coasters in the US are not ‘dippers’ they just hurtle… they may start very high but they twist round instead of dropping straight down and giving that stomach-churning ‘air time’ many continue this twisting and turning and although exhilarating it’s only speed and a lot of vibration. This true of Blackpool’s ‘Big One’ although not a woodie, it’s just a speed merchant! The 1923 ‘Big Dipper’ in its shadow gives more of a thrill in its traditional ‘dips’
‘Shivering Timbers’ is the finest example of a ‘woodie’ that’s actually a huge thrilling ‘dipper’ coaster! Oh! If I was younger and could afford to travel there and ride it! Thrilled just to see it on RUclips! ❤
It's amazing! I haven't been on it in SO long, but I haven't forgotten how it is! ❤❤❤
I hope to get here next year on the way to cedar point. I have never been to either of the parks.
It's a pretty decent park, lines aren't bad if multiple trains are ruining and shivering timbers is an elite woodie. You can try out titan track on Wolverine Wildcat but the SLC is just as bad as the rest.
Michigan's Adventure is way nicer than Cedar Point ngl
@@fazbearanimations2622 heck no
Love these dude. 🥃
Thanks Mate, I dig your videos as well! Cheers
I went on this when I was 10 years old. Had my head down the entire time except for on the top of the hills, then at one part there was a bump and I bonked my head on the bar 😂 going this Wednesday (7/17/2024) as a late birthday trip and gonna try to ride this again. I say late birthday trip cause my birthday is tomorrow (7/15/2024) and I already got plans
Hands down one of the best coasters ever, it's in my top 10. Too bad Michigan's adventure is not that great of a park, they need too add some good flat rides and another good coaster.
A RMC Raptor or Chance Hyper Gtx would be a great addition for the park.
@@CoasterHabitat that would be perfect, 💯
@@CoasterHabitathopefully, Railblazer.
@@rossh688Railblazer or Patriot.
Woah! Looks awesome!!!
I like to try to ride ST without holding on at all. It is a bit of a challenge since you do get some air time. So much fun!
That is a long, fun looking ride! How is it able to maintain its speed with those numerous large hills? The speed and pacing reminds me of The Voyage. This is all based off of POV videos I've seen, but I would love to ride both coasters one day.
It's about as close to Voyage as any other wooden coaster gets. Michigan's Adventure is my home park, only a short drive away, so I've been riding it regularly for the last 20 years or so. Finally had a chance to ride Voyage for the first time last year and it definitely lives up to the hype. Both are 100% my two favorite wooden coasters in the country.
I like this better than El Toro but not better than The Voyage. DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT turn this into a hybrid EVER NEVER EVER. This is my number 2 woodie of all times. I can't revisit unless they build another MAJOR coaster that is no less than 4000 ft long. They need a NEW B&M Hyper or Intamin but since the population in the area isn't that major, I am sure that will never happen.
Yeah if they had another good coaster maybe more people would come out there
WTF why have I never known about this coaster
No you do!!! 🙌
How do they maintain so many tall hills in a row, most coasters get shorter each as they go?
They don't HAVE to get slowly shorter. RMC uses tiny hills for airtime right after the drop. Most layouts do get gradually shorter in height, due to the fact that the train needs to complete the circuit on just gravity after the lift hill.
Rides awesome but Michigan adventures needs new coasters. They should take it seriously because it feels like they don’t.
This one will have all the "inversionists" wetting their pants and crying to their mamas 😜 !
Quick question here,is shivering timbers back to running 2 cars? I heard that they collided into each other a while ago and one of them had to be removed.
No - but… it is not a super busy park on most days - avoid the busy days and it is a walk on for half the day and 20 minute line for most of the rest.
I stand corrected - Yes it is now running two cars again!
Potential for Titan Track?? 🤔
With its second biggest woodie getting some titan track, I think the park would like to keep this one all wood.
@@CoasterHabitat Thats why you go Titan Track, cause GCI will do the most respectful facelift and keep a lot of the wooden profiling.
After the first turnaround, some of those sections could use some modernization. I imagine some kicker hills could be added with GCI touching this layout. Still tho, just a legendary beast.
This looks like my kind of coaster. Don't waste my time with overbank turns and twists and transitions, just give me endless airtime hills.
Airtime to the max!
this ride ruined my perception of coasters lol. and magnum. some of my first big time coaster at around 9 or 10 and fell in love with airtime. why i love maverick just for the airtime hill (of course everything else is perfection) cant wait to go this smmer. heard she got some titan track??
Prolly won't ever ride that park seems mid af and super oiut of the way one elite woodie ouch
They need to build a new RMC like a raptor.
