Roller coaster element so insane... it had to be removed 🤯🎢 

I’ve heard that the ride wouldn’t be too intense for riders, but only would put too much stress on the trains, so they removed it to reduce maintenance costs. But Maverick is amazing.

They should have put that track piece somewhere on display in the park. That would look cool In my opinion.

Sorry to tell you only one person rode it, then immediately made the call to remove the element.

I live in Ohio, if you’ve never been to cedar point I encourage you to go, it’s one of the safest amusement parks I’ve been too and all of its rides are great, and yes maverick wait line is always long but it is surely worth it!!

I rode maverick. There's are a part where you go into a tunnel, stop for a minute, then go insanely fast. It feels like your in a racecar going 250 miles per hour, the whole experience was memorizing and I would love to go again.

"you can find it in a field in Ohio" sigh *goes to comments*

VelociCoaster at Universal Islands of Adventure literally has a heart line role at the very end. Easily the best coaster I’ve been on.

I first rode maverick with my wife in 2017. We both fell in love with that ride and that ride till this day is our top ride ride up against the millennial force

"Erm... only in Ohi-" *multiple gunshots*

I wonder how the track ended up on a farm in Mansfield. That's over an hour away from Cedar Point. You'd think Cedar Fair would want to keep it somewhere nearby the coaster or just scrap it or something.

The people of Ohio want their g force back.

"Maverick Coaster 1 looks too intense for me!"

I won’t stop getting videos about cedar point since I went there this summer

OGs know that if your intensity and nausea rating is too high, then your excitement rating dips meaning you have to charge less for the ride

Cedar point is a goated amusement park

If I see a single “can’t even ride roller coasters in ohio” comment I’m gonna lose my shit 😭😭😂

Yes. Yes I would. No " guests " ever rode it. Just people testing it.

"Maverick looks too intense for me"

That is by far my favorite Rollercoaster of all time.

As an enthusiast, I’d be ok with it, but looking from a GP standpoint, I can see why it was removed.

So you're telling me I've been a 30 minute drive from that piece of track for years and had no idea 😂

I love this ride, I'm a local in ohio, and go to cedar point a ton. And I really love this ride lol

Actually, it was not removed because it was too intense, it was removed because it put to much stress on the trains.

Maverick is amazing and so is all the rides in Cedar point I’m looking forward to this summer😝😝😝

If they had raised it a little and drawn the roll out a bit more in the original plans, it wouldn't have had to be removed. Still would have been a whippy element too. But that's what progress is about, making mistakes and learning, might be why Velocicoaster's roll is shaped the way it is now.

The Maverick is a awesome ride!

Given that part of the ride it definitely makes sense they removed it, that S turn even though a gentle element was still incredibly forceful on maverick

One dad coming to get that 360 roll for their backyard coaster

its already intense enough im glad they changed it before opening

I just realized: the scrapped idea for this element likely inspired the “Mosasaurus Roll” on Velocicoaster! It would make sense considering Maverick and Velocicoaster are fairly similar and are both designed by Intamin!

When it’s actually running it’s the best ride in the park!

I think there should be a roller coaster with twin tracks, and they follow each other, twist around each other, angle away then come in in a collision course, etc. I’d call it DOGFIGHT or DUEL

Look at that inversion, it's an outside inversion creating neg g for an extended period of time. This is literally trying to pull you out of your seat. Absolutely fantastic!!! Imagine doing an outside loop from the top where you're upside down at the bottom of the loop instead of the top?

That someone got a 3.5mm hook through their palm, and another person managed to bend a hook that size, shows how much force is needed. 3.5mm isn't *that* thin. Since I mostly use 0.5-1.5mm hooks I'm not sure I'd think of 3.5mm as sharp or bendable-- so I'd probably end up doing something similar tbh.

There are definitely 8 year olds who persuaded their moms to go to Ohio just for that 😂

This roller coaster is in my top 3 that I’ve ever ridden Ngl, the only problem is it breaks down every 5 minutes

Now Velocicoaster has the Barrel Roll at the end! Lmao😂

even without it the maverick is an incredible ride. i recommend either riding it first if you get early park access, or very last because the line is ALWAYS long for it

Crazy it’s that old. This coaster is still smooth and feels like it’s brand new. One of my favorite coasters. These coasters need to show up in more parks. I love low to the ground coasters and this one is crazy good.

Living in Mansfield it has just become my life's mission to find the track

In a Heartbeat I would put my Heart on the Line for that Heartline

One of the best rides I've ever been on!

I’m a wooden roller coaster hobbyist & most steel coasters just don’t grab my heart very hard, but there are a bunch of steel coasters that I like a lot. Maverick is one of those. I had no idea it had a heart line roll at that location when it was new! Wow, I’m supposed to be an expert! Well, I am, just with wood coasters, though. So, my thought is I wish they would’ve stretched or elevated that roll or otherwise engineered some of the force out of it instead of removing it. Maverick is great how it is, the whole ride is overboard intense, but having one more inversion, one that’s grey-out forceful, would make the ride even better. They should donate that inversion to the ACE Coaster Museum! Since I don’t keep up with steel coasters nearly as much as wood…Are there anymore small, Intamin coasters with lots of inversions like Maverick in the U.S?

I’m so sad that it had to be shut down because I really wanted to ride it it looks so FUN 😢😢

The maverick is such an amazing coaster, top 3 at cedar point forsure

Yes I'd also wanna ride Intimidator 305 before they re did the turn

Maverick plus G force, nice

Omg maverick is such an amazing ride, definitely top two roller coasters I’ve ever ridden

My (now) husband of 18 years and I rode the Maverick together shortly after opening. It’s the perfect mix of OMG I’m gonna pee my pants terror and belly laugh fun. We’ve been blessed to ride many different roller coasters in Canada and The States over the years but Maverick is still our favourite! Cedar Point is a stellar, absolutely amazing park and offers something for everyone to enjoy…even those (weirdo’s lol) who don’t like roller coasters. The Roller Coast truly is one of the safest tourist destinations in terms of ride care and quality, employee training, knowledge and care, and personal safety throughout that you’ll find anywhere! ❤ from Shannon in Canada 🇨🇦

Put it higher up from the water, and sure. These g forces don’t scare me nearly as much as brain trauma from smacking my head on the water at those speeds 😂

I live not too far from Cedar Point. That place is quite nice

I have one similar at one of my home parks called a "lagoon roll" which flips you upside down, then up, and upside down on the opposite side, then up. Coined by lagoon theme park.

There’s a roller coaster that is made for people who want to do in a fun way. I don’t think this is more intense then that

40.77158° N, 82.56667° W Area is more overgrown but that has to be it.

They definitely have the tools to reprofile it now and put it back

No riders ever experienced the heartline roll, it was only tested and removed before opening

If someone says one more thing about Ohio imngonna evaporate the entire west coast

With the old restraints I could see why you head would bang back and forth with newer restraints I bet it would be completely fine.

I heard a rumor from a CP employee that they plan to add that element back in for the 2026 season

And now Velocicoaster is an outstanding coaster because of its heart line roll

why did I tear up?

Bro cedar point is the best theme park ever! I genuinely have so many amazing memories from there and it’s honestly just a fun place.

Riding the old version of the rollercoaster of the old element still intact in virtual reality, would be really cool

I was on that job while working for ADENA CORP. cedar fair was charging Sandor $25,000 each day the new coaster tracks weren’t there.

Now that was an interesting fact. Thank you

"Ohio" Now I understand what Stewie felt with peter

The Batman Roller Coaster at Six Flags has this same instantaneous corkscrew element towards the beginning of the ride. It literally hurts to ride as your brain is being slammed side to side under the G-forces! This is absolutely NOT an exaggeration!

Maverick and Goose: I feel the need, the need for speed! 😂😂😂

Maverick is amazing, i wish it still had this element, would’ve been even better

“You can find it in a field in Ohio” Me: I’m not even gonna check the comments

I like that they have land out there in Ohio to just put random shit such as roller coaster tracks and shipping containers😂😂

God I love that ohio has the best theme parks🎉

Reminds of the velocicoaster in universal studios it does a 180 over the water

I rode the maverick 35 days ago I also rode the millennium force 😊

I wish I i could've ridden it with that element. Looks so sick

Tbh I wish its was still there that's sound so crazy and fun

rode this ride more than 50 times. such a great coaster

This roller coaster is amazing fast pass recommended for this ride but definitely worth the wait.

I’d give ANYTHING to actually ride that ride with its ORIGINAL setup guys!

The Mosasaurs roll is my favorite element I’ve experienced and this looks pretty similar but maybe shorter and snappier

Interesting! Seems like this inversion found its way into Velosicoaster and over water the same! 😜

This is literally my favorite ride

maverick was actually one of my first coasters. my friends took me telling me it was a baby ride.

I can't even imagine how intense that roll would've been. The ride as-is is already uncomfortably intense.

Cedar point is mind blowing, Maverick and Steel vengeance are the best rides there. Steel I think is slightly better but they are both unique. The biggest rollercoaster in my country is one of the smallest rides at Cedar point and I'd never been to a proper theme park like Cedar Point. My first ride at Cedar point? Millennium force. FRONT SEAT. I just about crapped myself on the drop lol.

I think it’s “the Smiler” in Alton Towers in the U.K. that has the record for the most inversions on a roller coaster.

It was a heartline roll; it wouldn't exert any dangerous forces on riders. It was removed because it was placing too much strain on the track

Yes I would... Ride that roller coaster element. Looks fun

I'm sure Canada's Wonderland has something extremely similar to it that does do the spiral thing you mentioned

The whiplash on that would send me to another planet

Gosh I would have loved to ride it with that roll. It’s one of my favorite rides.

Lagoon slc’s cannibal ride still has this

I love how Maverick has that dark tunnel where you stop before being shot forward

Wow! That twist looked crazy!😮

Imagine acquiring a bunch of old defunct track pieces that are lying in fields across the world and building your own backyard Frankencoaster!

I just imagine marcel vos like "The coaster had already met the stat requirements without it, and with the extra piece the ride would have gotten a stat penalty due to the G forces being too high, which would have reduced profits. This theme park knew their peeps."

I would love to ride that. They finally did it again on Velocicoaster, and it's awesome.

Ofc I would Cedar Point is awesome and I go with my family and some friends every year

The 360 exists at lagoon on cannable they made it go slower while doing it but it’s there
