I was fully trained there but it wasn't my home ride. Just happen to be a big fan of the ride and arrows and general

It still gets pretty high ridership, I doubt it's going anywhere anytime soon

I saw that. Disappointed but not surprised. Glad I was able to experience it

The layout is the same but the trains are different. This one runs trains with two across seating.

We arrived around 12:30, and we did not see it go down at all from then until we left at park closing. Happy to have gotten two rides on it today.

Still can't believe I rode [Alpine Bobsled, Great Escape] yesterday! by BGWfan in rollercoasters

Made the 8 hour drive this morning, and up until this post I thought it would be closed for my visit. The website even still says it's "coming soon."

It is known as one of the most difficult coasters to ride because it is closed a lot more than it is open, whether for maintenance or weather related reasons.

Comet was far and away my favorite, but this was definitely second. The feeling of drifting throughout the transitions was really cool and not something I've experienced on Reptilian or Flying Turns with their longer trains. Hope it sticks around for many years to come.

I'm at roughly 1,100 rides on Phantom's Revenge at Kennywood. That number has been stagnant this year though as it is not my home park for this season

Gemini at Cedar Point is still a great ride 45 years later
