| Roller Coasters |
| It's everything Cedar Point is famous for. It's what you see everywhere you look. It's what Cedar Point has the biggest variety of. It's the highest priority of the managers. And with 16 of them, they are Cedar Point. |

| In May, 2000, Cedar Point unleashed the tallest and fastest roller coaster in the world, and they called it Millennium Force. Standing at a record-blasting 310 feet high, Millennium Force has changed the skyline of Cedar Point forever. It was also the world's first "giga-coaster", meaning coaster that is taller than 300 feet and is faster than 90 miles per hour. It was also the first roller coaster to use the use the cable system |
| on the lift hill. Instead |
| of using a regular chain, Millennium Force has a sled that carries the train up to the top and over. Reaching a maximum speed of 93 miles per hour, and not to mention the two tunnels, this baby's a doozy. No trip to the Point is complete without at least one ride on Millennium Force. |
