What do you guys think I should do this year?

[Bubba Z]

Ok, that makes more sense for travel. But if you have never been to Kennywood I would stop there for more credits.

[Robert T Ackerman]

Well lets see, let's wiegh out the pro's and con's...


Cedar Point
 Pro's
- TTD
- Millennium Force
- Wicked Twister
- SkyHawk
- Max Air
- Better Operations
- More than 1 train on all coasters no matter what the crowds are like.
-Splits up the drive a little more down the middle

Con's
- We've all been there before and don't really need any new credits and will be riding Delerium at PKI later in the week.
- No Phantom's Revenge or Jack Rabbit.
- That's all I can think of.

Kennywood
Pro's
- Phatnom's Revenge (easily one of the top 5 steel's in the country)
- Jack Rabbit's Double Down
- The Exterminator
- Very relaxing park, excellent atmosphere.
- Free parking
- Less expensive than CP

Con's
- One train on MOST coasters, regardless the crowd size.
- Driving through mountain-like roads... very frustrating with lots of traffic stops. (one of the main reasons I havent gone here since 2003)
- Will make for a much longer drive to the Dells on Thursday night into Friday, taking away a few hours of our Hades ride time (there's my main reason for chosing CP)
- I can take an over night trip earlier in the summer to hit this park, or go during their Halloween event in October.

So yeah, I'm chosing CP, I really enjoyed TTD and Wicked Twister enough to not need KW. I'm also not a big fan of looooooooooooong drives, especially when I do a good portion of the drive.I'd much rather get to The Dells as early as possible on Friday morning.


Rob, who cannot wait, even though its over 5 months away  :lol:  :roll:

This place is in Dells and this is another reason I am not goign there. SCAD tower and bunjee jumping, my kind of stuff!!

[chilled182]

I pretty much need to go to that place.  But im sure you have to be 18 and sign your name in blood on about 15 release forms.

Maybe after may..

Half the price for each ride on each of those attractions goes to the paper needed for all the waviers!

Each of those looks awsome, except for the skycoaster, which looks a little small.  I would love just to free fall 100 feet into a net!

[GADVwow]

Do NOT forget to go by and ride Avalanche.  At least one of us thinks it is by far the best wood coaster in Wisconsin!

And, if you haven't been there, Geauga Lake IS worth the trip.  If you have a Cedar Fair pass from any park EXCEPT Cedar Point, the pass will also get you in at Geauga Lake.

[ChuckR]

Yeah, we will be going on Avalanche.

And no, were not going to Geauga Lake. I have been there before and would rather go to CP.

[Cyclonic]

I'm wishing I was 20 again  :cry:

Oh well, Have fun guys!

Me too, but you should at least get out to Knoebels this year

[Cyclonic]

Alright guys what do you think? Cedar Point or Kennywood?

Go to Kennywood.  you've never been there, and it is a great way to start a trip, since it will be less taxing then walking a mile out and a mile back at the point.  KW has a great atmosphere, awesome rides, great staff, and good food.  Well worth the stop.

[chilled182]

lets not forget.. kennywood is ALOT cheaper!

[Bubba Z]

I think they made up their mind already since Rob does all the driving  :wink:

 :lol:  That and the fact we already booked the hotel for CP! I couln't pass up a $45 a night deal... split that between 3 and its almost nothing!
