Its just the best ride Ive ever been on. Period. No, I didnt ride TTD because it was broken down when I went to Cedar Point this summer, but this is just coaster bliss. The lift pulls you up at a remarkable pace, and you can just look out over the seemingly endless expanse of Lake Erie on your left. Then the first drop, and man, is it a killer. You get pulled over the crest of the lift giving a bit of floater air as you just fall to the earth. This is where those amazing Intamin giga-trains definitely are at there best. They run soooo smooth, and dont have too many restraints holding you in, so you have just a great unobstructed feeling. Then for the first tunnel, which you just blast on through in almost no time at all. Out in the back of the ride, you have the first camel, giving you some air, but that just pulls you back down into the valley into a couple heavy overbanks and low to the ground curves. And that isnt even teh best part of the ride. You come then into the much shorter second camel, which takes you right over the stream and back into the second pitch black tunnel, and into the last and best bunny hop that gives you the best air on the entire ride as you pump through that hill and into the straight track leading into the last overbank. But the key to this ride is too ride it at night. Its just so much more amazing and spectacular. When I was at CP I rode it 7 times, and we were lucky enough to ride it in the fog. The top half of the lift was covered in white, and the first drop is just an awesome plunge as you cant even see the ground.
