Come on a ride with me…hehe!!

Valravn gives riders a sweeping view of Lake Erie before dropping them over 200 feet on a 90-degree free fall that hits a top speed of 75 mph. It also turns riders upside down three times. The park’s website says: “Your flight on Valravn begins when you board one of three, 24-passenger floorless trains and climb 223 feet into the Cedar Point skyline at a 47-degree angle. Then, you’ll face your fear of straight-down freefall as the train is temporarily stopped and held into position on the very edge of the 214-foot-long vertical drop.’ Vice president and general manager of Cedar Point, Jason McClure, said, “The really big difference is right before the drop you hang for four seconds and it can be the longest four seconds of your life.” The roller coaster has already broken records. It’s now recognized as the world’s tallest, fastest and longest dive coaster.

Cedar Point in Ohio opens for its 146th  season today, with a new record-breaking roller coaster to celebrate.

Valravn, the park’s 18^th coaster, will likely become known for its dramatic first hill with riders suspended at the top, looking straight down, for a heart-stopping 4 seconds, before they’re poured down into a 214 foot free fall.
