    Thanks for reviewing my home park! If they shuttled you in, that means it was RIDICULOUSLY more busy than usual. I used to work there, and they only have to shuttle people in 5-7 times a summer at most. Cannonball is my personal favorite but mine of lost souls, psychodrome and turkish twist are the biggest hidden gems in my opinion.

    You hit the nail on the head about Canobie. The park is all about the charm. It's a beautiful and well-kept park.
    Yankee Cannonball used to be a lot better. The ride was retracked by GCI in 2015/2016. While the ride is smoother than ever, the retracking removed a lot of the ride's airtime. It was unfortunate.
    Canobie gets busy even on weekdays. It's not uncommon to find a 30-45 minute wait for the Yankee Cannonball even on weekdays. The ride used to be able to run two trains, but it is no longer allowed to after a collision in 2001. The ride used to have manual skid brakes and due to operator error, the brakes weren't deployed in time and the two trains bumped. The park has upgraded the ride's braking system to be automatic, but it's not sufficient to allow two train operations. I hear that would be the same cost as a new ride. While I would love that since it would double their star attraction's capacity, the park would rather invest in a new ride.

    Hey, my home park! That was a nice watch. It's definitely a park geared towards families but it's a blast. I'm not sure if they still do a late day pass, but when I was growing up they'd allow you to buy a pass for after 4 or 5 at a lower cost. Usually you could still hit all the major attractions on that.

      I ski, so I spend a fair bit of the winter on chairlifts. If you are on a long flat span, particularly on a longer lift, when the emergency brake goes, you can get some serious negative Gs as the line tension adjusts. On Gadzoom at Snowbird we probably bounced 2m out if the blue once when it happened.

    The highlight of every summer growing up was to go to this park. I remember all the kids being terrified of Yankee Cannonball like it was the tallest, scariest coaster in the world. Going on it was like a rite of passage. I remember my dad talking me into it and the whole time I screamed and was terrified. When we got off he was like “sorry I made you go - you don’t have to go again.” I was like “what are you talking about” and jumped right back in line. The birth of a coaster addict. 😎

    I grew up in Dracut Massachusetts, about 20 minutes South of Salem on the NH state line. The character of the park is always what brings me back, and for us locals there is the nostalgia factor. Overall it ranks pretty high even without the nostalgia. The rides they've added throughout the years are awesome, but the thing I like best about Canobie is that it doesn't pretend to be something it's not. It's an old school New England amusement park which has managed to survive throughout the years, and its proud of that heritage.

    While they may not have rides people cross the country to go on, the park has evolved, and expanded over the years. They haven't been afraid to cut out some of the dead wood, or expand sections.
    And yes, it's very well kept despite its age. Interesting fact: Canobie Lake Park actually started off as a trolley park. Certain sections of the park still have some of the old trolley tracks remaining.

    Woo, home park! In case no one's said it yet, there's another reason why this park is as remarkable as it is: much like Alton Towers, city ordinance demands rides never break the treeline, but unlike Alton, the rides also can't go underground because of the lake! Whatever thrills this park's future holds will take place within ~70 feet, full-stop. Which begs the question among Northeastern enthusiasts as to what the next great coaster could even be... multi-launch, anyone?

    Canobie is down the road and I ride my motorcycle past it all the time because it's just a nice ride.
    It is easily accessible from I-93 but the entrance itself and the park is just in a residential neighborhood. It almost pops up out of nowhere.
    The lake itself has no public launch except for kayaks, it is the drinking water reservoir for Salem, so you cannot swim (or even touch) the water. But the park does operate that tourist boat which is nice.
    Going there in fall adds the changing color of leaves and is my favorite time to visit. Being a local I have been to the park dozens of times over my lifetime. Brought many a date there when I was in high school.
    There is often live bands and entertainment as well. Of course going during the Covid crisis impacts what the park can offer. They also do a great Halloween attraction each year.
    It is one of the oldest parks in America and there are still bits of it preserved for posterity. If you go on the Ferris wheel there are pictures and historical notes going back over the last century. It very much feels like an old timey park.
    Lines can be a bit long but it's the only amusement park anywhere near there, so it gets crowded during peak times.
    Thanks for the review, I loved seeing a local attraction on RUclips.

    Old-school woodie fans are attracted to Canobie just for the Yankee Cannonball, which is a 1930s PTC classic in pretty good shape. I'm not sure I've ridden it since the retracking mentioned elsewhere. Untamed is a standard small Gerstlauer, but that's a good thing to be, and the theming is great. I love that first loop.

    I lived in Salem around 10 years ago, in north salem by arlington pond, but don't live in the new england area anymore. I'm positive I had gone to Canobie several times many years ago before around 2010. I was fairly young at the time though.

    Here is an interesting fact, the Arrow Corkscrew at Canobie Lake Park was indoors in it's original location.

      yes and it was also bigger in texas

    • @dragonpullman23
      @dragonpullman23 4 года назад

      @WhoButWBMarci Yeah, I think it was the first indoor coaster with inversions, since it has the same corkscrew design as many other Arrows manufactured in the '70s. Although even if it was still an indoor coaster, Canyon Blaster would have stolen it's thunder by now.

    I’m so glad you didn’t pronounce it Ca-No-Bie
    Also they added a double decker carousel and they have always teased new things. They do have space for another roller coaster if they wanted but who knows (they tease it a lot but permits restrict them from being tall, untamed I believe reached the height limit)
    The one thing the park does though is adds something new every one to two years, the double decker carousel, water park slides, the different train route and ice jet are all less than 5 years old at the park and untamed I don’t think is 10 years old yet either. Corkscrew was repainted a couple years ago too
    If you go back up to New Hampshire, mention it because a lot of people would go up there to do a meet and greet.
    Also a useful tip, they are extremely good with rain policies and if it rains they’ll give u a ticket for another day (assuming most rides are closed and they have to close the park)
    One more thing, 2021 go to screemfest up there, it is extremely popular there and is definitely worth the trip. But if you want to go when it’s not packed, fridays in May or June, my fam and friends always go on the Friday of Memorial Day weekend, it’s open 9am to 10pm. 9-3 it’s packed because of schools but after that it’s nothing. After 9 we were getting walk on’s with yankee cannonball so useful tip
    Hope you come back up to New England soon

      Actually Canobie has Arrow Corkscrew #2!! The second modern day coaster to invert riders. The first one was at Knott’s Berry Farm but now up at Silverwood in Idaho.

    I go once a year (every summer) and personally its my favorite.. because the only other amusement park is six flags.. i dont like six flags, but canobie is a place i love also for yhe landscape and just the way it looks, but that is probably bc canobie actually used to be a small botanical garden/ park with like 2 kiddie rides, also the staff are so kind and never really try to hurry you. Canobie is a really cool place to go especially if your a visual person!

    Canobie is on my list of parks to visit, based on my armchair amusement park tourism. They have a few really old-school rides that are the last of their kind.

    Hey, home park, neat.
    Stephen King wrote a book inspired by Canobie - Joyland.
    It's not really set in canobie, it's set in a coastal park, but Canobie was the inspiration. When I read it, it basically took place at Canobie.

    This theme park also has a historic ride. "Mine of Lost Souls". It's one of the few dark rides outside of Disney and the only dark ride in the New England area. Mine of Lost Souls and Psycodrome are my two favorite rides in the entire park.

      @@CoasterStudios If you went during their Halloween event, then they unfortunately shut it down and use the area for one of their haunted attractions. This year it is one of the rides closed due to COVID. It's located near the log flume.
