I rode this ride until the day the park closed and I am so glad you recreated it with both double downs. It was a great coaster and I miss it so much.

it truly was one of my favorite roller coasters. The first hill was take your breath away great and the two double downs were amazing the trees growing around it were so old that they would cut tunnels for the tracks through the trees. You couldn't walk around the whole coaster and see everything, me and my dad used to film the coaster and then go ride it but you couldn't see it through the trees which added an amazing element. I went back to next year and it was gone.

I absolutely love this!! My grandfather was Raymond D'Agostino, and I know he and my mother would have loved to have seen this recreation. I'll be visiting my aunt Donna this weekend and will be showing her this video! Amazing work!!

Looks like a great wood coaster. In 1925 it was way ahead of its time and would still be a great ride today

That was a great ride ! Small but powerfully fun ! Bertrand Island was home to my all time favorite flat ride . The Boomerang Ride .

I read a little bit about that ride when I was researching Wildcat. It sounded fun.

Recreate the Comet at cascade park, The NAD (national amusement devices) woodie that operated from 1954 to 1981. Great video. Awesome

I just saw a shaky POV of that coaster, and it intrigued me. I might give it a shot. It was really hidden, so researching will be difficult.

Nice job. Consider doing the Fireball from Riverview in Chicago. That would be awesome!

I can add that to my list of coasters to consider. I know nothing about it, so I'd have to see what information is available.

Could you by any chance re-create the old Greyhound Wooden Roller Coaster that used to operate at the now defunct Lakewood Fairgrounds in Atlanta Georgia??

I'll consider it. I first have to see what information is available.

Great job, the only thing I noticed that was incorrect was that right hand turn at the top was never that smooth, it was almost like you were bouncing off the guard rail, very jerky. Other than that it was a great vid.
