Power Tower, an electrifying attraction found at Cedar Point and Valleyfair, both Cedar Fair parks in the United States, promises an unforgettable adventure for thrill-seekers. This exhilarating ride operates using air power within large cylinders, where an aircraft steel cable connects to an internal piston and the rider's car. To ensure safety, hydraulic cylinders are situated at the tower's base, providing an extra security measure in case of any ride malfunction. The rides were skillfully designed and manufactured by S S Worldwide, renowned for their expertise in the field. Notably, in the 2020 season, both parks revised their height requirements, allowing guests who are 48 inches (120 cm) or taller to partake in the excitement. • Cedar Point's Power Tower stands as a remarkable multi-tower attraction, boasting an extraordinary configuration with two Space Shot rides and two Turbo Drop rides. These towers are artfully arranged in a square footprint, enhanced by an impressive crowning marquee and intersecting arches that unite all four rides at their summits. What sets Power Tower apart is its distinction as the world's only drop tower ride with four towers, each dedicated to a specific drop cycle. The ride was announced on August 20, 1997, and enthusiastically opened to the public in 1998, captivating thrill-seekers ever since. • Valleyfair's Power Tower offers an equally exhilarating experience with a captivating arrangement. This remarkable attraction showcases a pair of Turbo Drop rides, and a single Space Shot ride strategically positioned within a triangular footprint. The rides proudly stand beneath a striking marquee that elegantly connects them at their peaks. • Notably, Power Tower at Valleyfair claims the title of Minnesota's tallest ride. Originally intended to reach a towering height of 300 feet (91 m), restrictions imposed by the Federal Aviation Administration due to the nearby Flying Cloud Airport limited the ride's maximum size to 275 feet (84 m). Nevertheless, Power Tower continues to amaze and thrill visitors at Valleyfair, ensuring an awe-inspiring and heart-pounding experience. • On the scenic Lake Erie peninsula in Sandusky, Ohio, Cedar Point is an expansive 364-acre (147 ha) amusement park. With its inception dating back to 1870, it holds the distinction of being the second-oldest operating amusement park in the United States, following Lake Compounce. As the flagship of the Cedar Fair amusement park chain, Cedar Point is renowned as America's Roller Coast. The park boasts an impressive lineup of 16 roller coasters, placing it fourth globally in terms of quantity, trailing only Canada's Wonderland and Energylandia, which are tied in second place with seventeen coasters each, and Six Flags Magic Mountain, which leads the pack with nineteen coasters. Steel Vengeance, the latest addition to Cedar Point's coaster collection, debuted to the public on May 5, 2018. • Cedar Point's regular operating season extends from early May until Labor Day in September. Following that, it reopens exclusively on weekends through Halloween, hosting special events like HalloWeekends. Beyond its thrilling rides, the park offers additional attractions such as a picturesque one-mile-long (1.6 km) white-sand beach, the Cedar Point Shores outdoor water park, the Castaway Bay indoor water park, two marinas, the Cedar Point Sports Center outdoor sports complex, and several nearby resorts. • Throughout its history, Cedar Point has achieved numerous significant milestones. It is the only amusement park worldwide with five roller coasters reaching at least 200 feet (61 m): Magnum XL-200, Millennium Force, Top Thrill Dragster, Valravn, and Steel Vengeance. Furthermore, it is the sole park to feature roller coasters in all four height classifications. Cedar Point has been honored with the esteemed Golden Ticket Award for Best Amusement Park in the World by Amusement Today for an impressive 16 consecutive years from 1997 to 2013. In 2017, the park welcomed an estimated 3.6 million visitors, solidifying its position among the top 20 amusement parks in the United States. Several of Cedar Point's buildings are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. • S S – Sansei Technologies (formerly S S Sports, S S Power, and S S Worldwide) is an American company known for its pneumatically powered amusement rides and roller coaster design. • © 1998 Cedar Fair Entertainment Company • (https://www.cedarpoint.com/) • Posted for entertainment and educational purposes only. • No copyrights were infringed.
