    🚨 At 15:06 there were some minor editing bugs that resulted in the 1st drop of Hydra being cut from the video, as well as a 5 second pause before the review. I have the full Hydra POV posted to “Front Seat POVs” on RUclips.

    Fun fact: Thunderhawk at Dorney was originally going to be built at Michigan's Adventure; Cedar Fair purchased the park from the Jourden family that built it originally (as Deer Park; yeah, it was a park, with deer you could feed and stuff), then CF cancelled the new coaster, bought it from Morgan, built it at Dorney, and Michigan's Adventure hasn't had a brand new coaster since CF bought it. I'm desperately hoping the Six Flags merger gets somebody off their butts and gives us a new coaster soon. Or at all.

      @@Bushwackerinpa yes; sorry! I was watching the video while I was typing and they said Thunderhawk so I typed it! Yes, Steel Force. Another fun fact: Thunderhawk is also the name of the Vekoma SLC that started life as Serial Thriller at Geauga Lake, until Cedar Fair bought the park, closed it, and rebuilt the SLC at... wait for it... MICHIGAN'S ADVENTURE. I know. Weird.

    But in all seriousness, that was my first ever time at Dorney Park and I absolutely loved it! I loved all the rides, the atmosphere was great, good operations (I had Fast Lane so lines weren’t an issue), and an overall amazing day. Our thoughts on the park and rides are pretty much the same. I will say, as a Cedar Point local, it was so cool to finally get on Demon Drop! That’s a KILLER drop tower (not a credit) and is probably my favorite drop tower not named Tower of Terror.

    Talon also has no midcourse brake-run, so that's a big reason why the second half hauls, as opposed to other inverts.

It's been a while ever since the whole lockdown thing happened but I've been here so many times, it's awesome getting to see it again!

    Dorney Park looks like a nice park. I'll admit that it's a park that I've never put too much interest in. Perhaps, I should visit it next month during my trip to Hershey and Great Adventure. I'm especially interested in Possessed, since I have never experienced a coaster of this model -- and I appreciate the obvious intensity of it. Iron Menace looks like a fun coaster, as does Steel Force. I've heard that Steel Force is one of the better Morgan hypers. Not as good as Phantom's Revenge of course - or Steel Eel. But far better than Wild Thing and better than Mamba as well. I'm quite confident that I would love Talon, given my love for B&M inverts and the fact that the layout looks really good from your footage. Demon Drop is an interesting contraption. I can attest to the intensity of it, since I rode this model of ride back in the day -- Free Fall at Six Flags over Georgia. It definitely shocked me at how jolting the drop was. I certainly wasn't expecting the ride to be so intense. This style of ride really is more like a roller coaster than a flat ride unlike it's present day cousins -- drop towers.
