  • Rougarou, formerly known as Mantis, is a floorless roller coaster located at Cedar Point amusement park in Sandusky, Ohio. Designed and built by Bolliger & Mabillard, the roller coaster originally opened in 1996 as a stand-up roller coaster called Mantis, which at the time was the tallest, fastest, and longest of its kind in the world.

    Vastly underrated coaster. If someone made a list of coaster elements you get for the amount of time you wait in line, this one might be #1 or 2. It's like an inversion for every minute of wait. I'll gladly marathon this one

      @TheSmokinLounge Amen, my first ride on it, I walked off with bloody ears from earrings. That and Maverick.
      Both rides are better now, but man, were they rough in a bad way and a good way. After the changes to Mantis, it's enjoyable and Maverick's move to softer restraints is a godsend.
      Cody Rhodes of WWE's favorite coaster is Maverick BTW. Have a good one

      I'm rooting for Dirty Dom. One thing I love about him is that he's doing a ton of work in NXT to take him to the next level.
      With the Heel heat he's getting and the work he's putting in, I really see Championship material someday for him.

    I hate to admit it, however, last time that I have been to Cedar Point is back in 1994. Raptor was the new coaster that year, and yes, I did ride it. Cool coaster. I would love to go to CP again. However, I have a really bad back, and I can’t walk long distances or stand on my feet very long. Still, it’s good to see people enjoying themselves. Peace.

    Love that when you're waiting to board you can see where the bolts on the train are marked so they know if any move at all or try to back out.

    I remember the mid 90s when Mantis dominated the front skyline. The standing element wasn’t as bad as people made it out to be. Was a decently smooth ride for an early B&M. Sure the Raptor was better but this was a great complimenting ride while people were walking back towards the front from the Mean Streak. Really lost its line when Millenium came. Now it’s like a 5min wait lol. 1996-2003 was like prime Cedar Point in my opinion.

  • @TheBobcat1978
    @TheBobcat1978 11 месяцев назад +3

    Has a very smooth vertical inversion. Might not be the fastest or the tallest but it is a good coaster for getting used to inversions. Only thing I'd change are the restraints. Head felt like a pinball. Lol.

  • @nicktheyoshi7137
    @nicktheyoshi7137 Год назад +2

    For this floorless, there’s head banging in the second half after the mid course, but the orange and blue color scheme is its redeeming quality plus the fact that it’s themed to a wolf and I love wolves, so because of that I’ll give it another shot but I won’t go out of my way to do it again.

    • @domenichughes7792
      @domenichughes7792 10 месяцев назад +1

      Two reasons:
      1) Cars are different, so it's a floorless instead of a stand-up. Different experience
      2) Every one of these floorless conversions has a new name because marketing departments love a cheap way to market a "new" attraction
      You make the call on how much those weigh

      "Scary"? As far as height or fear of falling out? Like Valravn's "Stop/Hold/Dive"? No, not so much. The issue here is mostly the 2nd half "Spaghetti Bowl" after the trim brake section. Side to side movements cause your head to bang into the Over-The-Shoulder "Horse Collar" restraints, painful on your ears.
