Goodbye Wicked Twister, What Will Come Next To Cedar Point?

  • Cedar Point has been rumoring a new roller coaster for a while after Steel Vengeance opened in 2018. Sadly we will be losing a roller coaster first before we get a new one. Wicked Twister will be officially closing on September 6, 2021. And yes this Intamin launch coaster has been rumored to close for quite some time now. It's just now that it's happening we can't believe it. Especially when we're still waiting for their next coaster announcement. Until that happens we must take our final rides on Twister before it takes its final launch.

    Cedar point is done dealing with RMC, after the disaster of steel vengeance. The flats are being relocated in the park and max air will get taken out which will leave a lot of space, at least a decent amount of space. I’ll be shocked if a GCI or possibly a gerstlauer doesn’t go in the space.

    I think they should relocate it somewhere in the same park. Frontier town. It could fit really well there if they carry it out right, and if they keep the coaster and make another, they would take back their spot as roller coaster capital of the world (one park has more roller coasters than them now.)

    • @BoomerangVillage
      @BoomerangVillage 2 года назад +1

      The problem is the operating cost. Intimin Impulses are notorious for their high maintenance costs. It seems that running the coaster has become unprofitable, given its unpopularity. Keeping the coaster, with the added cost of moving it, would be a terrible business decision for the park. I think they'll likely add two new rides in the next couple years. I hoping it'll be a GCI inverting coaster and a Gerstlauer family spinner. This would fill two gaps in their lineup, as well as helping them reclaim their title.

    If you listen to the June Cedar Fair earnings call...the 2022 budget is MASSIVE...they also stated they were not starting construction until Q4 to save costs...so one of those parks is getting something big??? I do think CP will replace a former record breaking coaster with some sort of large coaster or high thrill flat. After that the focus will be families again.

    • @TommonSensePro

    I was looking to the plot of land, and I thought: What if Wicked Twister will get replaced by an S&S launched coaster, like GaleForce at Playland's Castaway Cove? It's a compact layout, with some twists, inversions, but they won't have to remove that much around the plot of wicked twister. I can see this coming to cedar point

    I think there is more than enough land over by Wicked Twister. The extreme sports stadium doesn’t exist anymore, Tiki Twirl and Big Wheel can be moved. The only question mark is Max Air, but if the ride works I doubt they will remove it. It’s popular enough to stick around.

  • @Yikes_its_Psychs
    @Yikes_its_Psychs 2 года назад

    It's gonna be a new coaster. CP is always competing with Magic Mountain. CP isn't gonna remove a coaster without having a replacement in the works. And they still have to add a few more to steal the crown back from Six Flags.
    Also, isn't MaxAir getting removed? If that's the case they should relocate the Giant Wheel, the remaining flat rides that work & the kids area. Then they would have a massive plot of land to work with for a coaster. My guess; either a Vekoma Multi-looper or a Gerstlauer Infinity coaster. My reasoning; they need more modern roller coasters with a lower (48") height requirement. Especially since most of the Arrow coasters are going to reach the end of their service life VERY soon.
