Magnum XL-200 was my most pleasant surprise when visiting Cedar Point. When Cedar Point boasts coasters like Millennium Force and Top Thrill Dragster it is easy to forget about its others. Even after that I expected Raptor or Mantis to be the third best. However, Magnum occupies that spot for me. The historical implications of the coaster are immense, as this changed the goals of rollercoaster designers forever. The coaster is great. Although not as big as some newer hypers, the views are unparalleled. The airtime is the best, second only to SROS at sfne. The best airtime hill is on the last tunnel of the return trip. In general, Magnum is a great coaster that is often overlooked (only had a 10 min. wait). People who come to Cedar Point looking past this coaster are in for a real treat. What a great ride.
