Put your hands in the air. not because you don’t care. but because you’ll be freaking out, suspended 160 feet in the air. on a new roller coaster at Cedar Point.
Cedar Park officials just announced the news that “Sirens Curse” will break records as it becomes the “tallest, fastest and longest ‘tilt’ roller coaster in North America.”
The ride climbs up a 160-foot-tall Lake Erie shipping crane tower, with increasingly “sinister” sounds. That’s when visitors can expect its signature moment, a stop on a “broken off” section of the track. While hovering in mid-air, they’ll be tilted 90 degrees, until they’re looking straight down. (This is the perfect photo moment right?) Riders then “flee from the beckoning call of the siren and plunge into the abyss,” which involves zooming through 2,966 feet of track at up to 58 mph.
Its inspiration is the “legend and lore of mysterious creatures living beneath the surface of Lake Erie often spoken of — but never spotted. This is one of the reasons I seek out all the coasters at Cedar Point. It’s the setting and back drop of Lake Erie! I’m a coaster fanatic and this ride is gonna climb, drop. twist, suspend, thrill and basically rock your coaster mind!
Cedar Point, which is located in the city of Sandusky on the shores of Lake Erie, will now have a total of 19 roller coasters. Check out the terrifying video here:ATT.COM | Game with ultra-low latency | AT&T (youtube.com)
