Much more impressed with this than I thought I would be.very fitting for a rollercoaster to represent the front gate and actually be called gate keeper.

Disagree, looks better than Wild Eagle, this coaster has more exciting elements and the top of the lift hill looks like a ton of fun.

Don't forget we still don't really know what happens after the MCBR. I'm hoping for a nice surprise at the end of the ride

Hard to tell but with the 45 degree lift and the amount of maneuvers I'm going with something just over 4k.

The only thing I dont understand is how is this taller than Wild Eagle? This honestly doesn't look taller than 210 ft. imo but it is just concept art.

It's not taller. It is labeled as the longest drop for a winged coaster. It is expected that the height will be around 170ft. Wild Eagle's drop is only 135ft.

Besides Wild Eagle, all these parks putting in wing coasters are all about the "keyhole" thing.

The ride looks like a lot of fun.

I don't think they are all about the "keyhole", but that element is visually appealing and will draw people in. I would say it is similar to the splashdown as it is something that just makes you say wow while watching the ride. I'm very excited about the near miss with the "keyhole" towers after the turnaround.

Pretty awesome! Wish it it was longer though.... 1:13 is kind of short. Can't be picky though, Dragster is what... 17 seconds? LOL

This is one of the few things that makes me kind of sad I moved down to Florida. No more awesome Cedar Point coasters, and no more Voyage within driving distance. I will definitely have to try and make a trip back north in 2014 (already have 2013 filled with another trip).

Leave it to Cedar Point to put in two keyholes when everyone else only has one though :lol:
