Using Sunglasses Straps at Cedar Point:

           Being located in Sandusky Ohio, Cedar Point holds the title as one of the best coaster parks in the Northeast and is known for having some of the scariest coasters in America. Being self-proclaimed as the “Roller Coaster Capital of the World”, Cedar Point has a variety of rides to back up their statement. Here are some of their top rides and attributes.

-       Millennium Force: known for having tops speeds of 93 mph and a maximum height of 310 feet. Being one of the faster coasters in the park, Millennium Force adds to its thrill by also being the first full-circuit coaster to climb over 300 feet. Riders first climb 310 feet before dropping the same distance before being propelled into two more massive hills.

-       Top Thrill Dragster – ultimately the fastest ride at the park, this coaster tops off at speeds of 120 mph and has a drop covering 420 feet. That’s insane! Propelling riders off from the start at speeds of 120 mph, riders are slung up and over the 420-foot hill making this ride the scariest in the park by default.


For those visiting anytime soon, be sure to bring and wear your sunglasses straps to both protect your eyes as well as your property. There have been way too many times where I have lost my sunglasses on a roller coaster just because I didn’t have sunglasses straps. Be sure to check out our array of straps here.

Six Flags Great America:

           Being only an 8-hour drive from Cedar Point, Six Flags Great America holds its ground in New Jersey. Visitors can either lose their mind over Kingda Ku or their gut over Bizarro as both coasters have gut-wrenching drops and twists.

-       Kingda Ku – standing a legendary 456 feet, this ride is probably ranked as one of the scariest coasters in all of North America. Riders are first propelled from 0 – 128 mph in less than 4 seconds, making this roller coaster the fastest on the continent… Riders are then dropped into a 27-degree spiral which gives riders the feeling of weightlessness before finishing up. This is one coaster you will either want to start your day off with or you will want to save it for last!

-       Bizarro – having over 5 different rolls and corkscrews, this ride has been known to give riders the feeling of zero-gravity. Not one of your fastest coaster in the park but definitely one of the most exciting.
