The sheer size and length of this ride saves it from being a total write-off. If you get it on a good day, you can avoid most of the roughness, however if you get it on a normal or bad day, you better watch out, because it can get downright PAINFUL.

This coaster is not as rough as people say it is. It really depends on how you ride it. If you slouch like a lot of people do, then you will feel the pain in your back. However if you sit fully upright, with your bottom all the way to the corner made by the seat and back, then you should be able to apreciate this wild wooden coaster

Mean streak had no line while we were at Cedar Point and I can see why. The ride itself looks scary but the queue is scarrier. Its a muggers paradise walking through the line. The only place I felt safe was in the station. Once we got to the top of the lift the train yanked me over the top and then slammed into the trim brake. It should not be considered a trim brake it should be considered a block brake. Our train crawled over the rest of the extremely rough hills. I did enjoy a couple of the smaller headchoppers. This ride looked so great from the outside but the best part of it turned out to be the ending. Mean streak was a coaster that hurt me and my feelings. I wish Cedar point invested in something in that rides spot since I dont see a ton of room for expansion. Since Mean streak has no more airtime on it try Blue Streak. Dont forget the Advil, youll need it Mean Streak is evil.

This coaster is a dissappointment. It looks so big and fun and feels so pointless. Ill explain. The first drop I felt could have been good but it wasnt because of that stupid trim break (which feels like its placed half way down the drop)!! The hills also could have been filled with air, but Im guessing the trim killed that too. I will give it points on its great speed that is there throughout the ride and perfect amount of roughness. It really feels out of control!! The loss of a great drop and great airtime just makes the good aspects of this ride feel like its all smoke and no fire.

Good first hill but if only it wasnt so rough! It definitly gives ur brain a ride...I really liked the speed of it tho and how it goes through it self a lot. To me the line went very slow and they have 3 trains running. I dont know y that was but maybe it was just me. Still gota ride this one for the hill and speed. Just be ready for a painful headache after it!

For such a massive wooden coaster, I was suprised to see the ratings so low, but after riding it, I can agree in giving it a six. The speed was nice on the first hill, but the rest of the layout was fairly weak: I thought that there should have been more airtime. Also, the ride was very painful, not just to me, but to all of my friends.

A slow and methodical woodie. It&#39.s a shame too, because the massive walls of wood that confront you as you near the coaster and more through the queue are visually stunning. Unfortunately, any chance of the ride having any bite is ruined by the decision to place a trim on the first drop. There is a good view to be had of CP overall from the lift hill, and the visuals of the coaster itself really cannot be overstated, but the simple fact remains...this coaster has been tamed, almost to such a degree that we (I) have no idea what it was like when it was wild in years gone by.

This ride was fun and fast, but I would of given it a lot higher of a rating if the damn thing didnt rattle my head all around, the ride gave me a headache after I got off. But the speed of the ride helped it from getting a lower rating

I first rode Mean Streak in its debut season, and although at the time I thought it was a good ride, it never seemed to live up to its potential. Ive always thought of it as a &quot.....family-ride&quot..... Texas Giant. As far as the ride roughness, most coasters from the Curtis-Dinn era that use 2 seat PTC trains seem to track lousy as time goes on (The Predator probably being the worst offender). a freight train down a dirt road would be smoother. Now with the trim brakes, the second-half drops seem even more shallow. CP would have been better off building two medium size woodies rather than this giant disappointment. Rename it the &quot.....Yellow Streak&quot..... (its made with southern yellow pine - get it?)

*****rating update- score changed from 5 to 2*****
I rode MS on 08/28/08 and it was even worse than I remembered. The ride op dispatched the train with the caveat we would not only be enjoying a wooden rollercoaster, but receiving free chiropractic manipulation as well. If you call be whacked repeated with the hard rubber seatbacks enjoyment. I vividly recall thinking after going down the second drop, if I could have jumped have this PoS, I would have.

As much as i like cedar point, this ride should be tore down and another one built in its spot. It is showing too much roughness and has too many blocked spots which slow it down too much. One of my friends had a spliting headache when she exited stating it was a bad experience.
