 Review of Magnum XL-200 @ Cedar Point
1 Rating Posted by: PhantomNik on 7/25/2002 4:51:00 PM
Magnum is a tremendous coaster, and it is soooo close to being my favorite hypercoaster. The setting near Lake Erie is perfect, and I just love that slow, steady climb up that first hill....what a view!! The first drop (nearly 200 ft.) is excellent and so is the 2nd. Magnum has nice speed throughout the ride. The pretzel turnaround is quite unique! The bunny hills and tunnels give great pops of airtime (anywhere in the train) and give the ride a nice finish. Still like Phantoms Revenge a little better (more airtime, comfier trains, slightly smoother), but Magnum is right there. A coaster classic for sure!! Best of all, the lines are fantastic, usually no more than 30 minutes at any one time (its a walk-on before noon!!). The so-called "roughness" that some complain about is so minor that its not worth deducting points from Magnum (suck it up riders!) A must-ride for any coaster fan!! One of the best around!!!

Shut up, let him have his own opinion. I agree with him. Magnum is either a ride you love or hate. If you hate it, thats fine, but dont post pointless comments just because someone doesnt agree with you.

In response to RCjunkie, as Raptor said you are welcome to have your own opinions, but that comment was pretty lame. To call Magnum "crap" is, well, CRAP!! (And thats MY opinion!) Im just curious what has lead you to the opinion that Magnum is that bad....did you have a really bad ride on it?? Thanks, by the way, to Raptor, bista, and Alfungus!! Its nice to know that my reviews, to some, are pretty good....I do my best!

i have really tried this ride....from the back part of the train to the front and the middle....i have tightend my lap bar..loosened my lap bar..and even slouched down in my seat...this ride kills!! i mean the drop is good but the bunny hills are extremly terrible...and the brakes b4 the pretzel totally kill that part...so thats my conclusion...okay maybe not crap but NOT GOOD TO ME AT ALL

oh n 1 more thing ..Hey raptor u jumped on me for saying i didnt like this ride...look at ur review for SOB and tell me u arent doing the same thing...
Raptor on 8/4/2002 11:54:20 PM said:
Its not the same thing... I didnt jump on you for saying you hate Magnum. I did because you keep saying "Youre wrong, Magnum sucks" in a lot of the good reviews for Magnum.
