Raptor Pictures

Amusement Park Pictures > Cedar Point > Roller Coasters > Raptor Pictures

Raptor debuted at Cedar Point on May 7, 1994.

After all these years Raptor still delivers a great ride.

This vertical loop is Raptor's first of six inversions. I turned this pic into a great wallpaper image - so great in fact, that until they added video to the ride, you could see it in the Raptor photo booth.

Raptor was the first B&M inverted coaster to include a Cobra Roll.

Raptor riders zip along above the main midway.

This photo shows both the lift & first drop and also the ending of the ride.

Intense? Just ask the kid on the right.

Corkscrews on B&M inverted coasters are sometimes referred to as flat spins.

An interesting angle looking straight up at the top of the lift as the train begins the first drop.

Raptor reaches a top speed of 57 miles per hour.

The Zero-G roll is meant to induce a feeling of weightlessness.

Raptor is 3790 feet long.

The sign above the entrance.

I like this photo just for the spiral stairs.

The final inversion is this corkscrew.

Looking up at the 100 foot tall vertical loop.

Kick The Sky!

Raptor's ending helix is still one of the more intense moments in the coaster world.

Raptor's finale.

In 2007 on-board video cameras were added to Raptor allowing guests to purchase a DVD of their ride.
You can see those cameras at the front of the train in this photo.

Through the loop long after the sun has set.
