Ravine Flyer II front seat on-ride HD POV Waldameer

This Gravity Group terrain-hugging hybrid wooden coaster has it all and then some. A 115 foot drop that sends you zooming over a highway at 57 mph, tunnels galore, a 90° banked turn, nearly 3000 feet of twisty track and some of the best views you'll ever see on a coaster will all take your breath away.

One of my all time favorite coasters. Growing up in Erie, PA, Waldameer has always been significant, and when this finally opened, it was amazing.

[@elofkjellson3906]

Wow...I haven't ridden this but now I want to. This pov blew away my expectations, looks like a world-class woodie!

[@GirlSproket]

So, I've been marathoning coaster pov's for the past couple of days, and this (plus, The Beast) are the only two I'd honestly be willing to travel to, JUST to ride them.

[@WynnofThule]

@LIAM MILLER you haven't been on a night ride have you

[@OfficialDrize]

Garrett Marshall I live like 5 minutes away cause I live by the Erie Airport.

[@TylerPCoyne]

Every time it goes down the first drop. I can just hear the song “but my hope will never die”

[@korlu01]

For a small wooden coaster in a tiny amusement park in Erie, this thing really hauls ass

[@melb9528]

I rode this yesterday, and heck yeah, it does!!

[@KaspersetzSlideStudios]

This isn't exactly a small wooden coaster, its really quite large, I'v driven by here a few times for Cedar Point but for some reason haven't been yet.

[@Run4urlife13]

Kaspersetz Slide Studios my first time today. Unbelievable ride. You can actually just go to Waldameer (free admission) put $4 on a Wally card, ride it and leave. Its worth the 30 minute stop driving by.

[@kbog5587]

Ikr

[@kbog5587]

It will be sad for when it has to go

[@gregglivengood7680]

Back seat is badass!! Took 3 rides on it 2 days ago and it is way better than I remembered. Great airtime and laterals

[@mjbrown6434]

BEWARE this ride is so much louder then it is on le camera

[@TheMysticecho]

ikr u can yell anything u want in the tunnels and no one will hear I live in Erie and I go on it all the time

[@gaijeseger2914]

I know right! My ears pretty much pop off

[@roberiepa]

+Twig Gamez Agree. It's super loud. This video doesn't do it justice. I love it!

[@phanisreal6977]

Ikr

[@fandomlover1019]

Ikr those wooden tunnels kill your ears

[@tomodachijustin3394]

This ride deserves a lot more credit than what it's been getting.

[@jojo_hendriks]

These two airtime hills through the tunnels behind the bridge are in my Top 10 favorite coaster elements right now

[@peytonb6618]

It's faster then it looks

[@Run4urlife13]

I laugh at how it looks pretty fast in this video, but in person, this thing hauls some serious ass. Sit in the back. Whoa.

[@timmyteeej3986]

This thing is no joke, it will give you a ride

[@TarynM716]

Smokey Tokey I prefer the back, but front is so fun too. Also THE VIEW

[@panzerofthelake7661]

Well it already looks really fast

[@OfficialDrize]

This packs a punch!

[@harrh4528]

It looks like an amazing coaster. Like, *really* good

[@Fakeaccount-ko8lp]

Coasterfan3657 its so fun but it is bumpy bc it is a wooden one

[@lilyf9185]

Coasterfan3657 correct. It is. XD

[@meggie6016]

Its very fun as well, I recommended the back seat to go super fast and the front for all the views if you ever plan on going

[@iCoaster101]

SuperSkilledShyGuy not all wooden coasters are bumpy

[@Vinnie_728]

It's amazing. I would definately recommend it, worth going to erie for

[@jojo_hendriks]

This is an awesome coaster. Long, good Airtime, pretty smooth and it feels stupid fast

[@ett5146]

It's my favorite ride can't wait to go on it again next summer

[@coasterfun8446]

Going to this park a day after Cedar Point! So excited!

[@petparadise6071]

Kind of reminds me of a gci! Really underrated!!

[@TarynM716]

We rode this so many times in a row that the workers just talked and chilled with us. It was fun.

[@Cullvion]

That is FAST!!!

[@gracienicholson4037]

I have been on this a couple years ago. It is so fun!! I am going again in 3 days :)

[@Maximus_yt]

That view of the lake never gets old.

[@typo1345]

Ah. Such good memories. Every summer I would go to my gtandparent's house up in Erie and we went to Waldameer traditionally. The X-scream gives you great views of the lake. The Ravine flyer was always my favorite.

[@FahrenheitFan97]

Went on this a few weeks ago. Got 10 laps and rode it at least once in every car, and even with how different it is in each different row, there is no bad seat on this ride. It's really good.

[@kaydub0623]

I find the smoothest seat to be front, but I didn't ride all of the seats :p

[@theonecolt7835]

It is amazing how a rink-a-dink park like Waldameer can have one of the best woodies in the world.

[@bradyfisher2115]

Waldameer is not a rink a dink park it's pretty damn nice

[@kingcoaster7241]

TheOneColt same with lake compounce and boulder dash

[@lilyf9185]

No its not rink a dink. Trust me.

[@meggie6016]

From experience of living in Erie, Waldameer is *amazing*

[@grapepotatos1921]

My favorite part like even though I’m scared of heights I always look over at the lake at the top of the hill

[@Moondra3]

This looks like fun! I could definitely ride this all day! Road trip in the works! HAHA!

[@riparianlife97701]

Wonderful coaster! It seems so fast for the height of the lift hill.

[@joerousseau9863]

Soooooo twisty. Coasters seem faster when they are more twisty like New Texas Giant, Maverick (first half), Wicked Cyclone, etc. LOVE twisty coasters.

[@alexferguson1139]

Docktor Jim I love how this coaster is deceptively larger than it looks, because the height of the lift hill is actually over 30ft shorter than the drop height because of the shape of the terrain.

[@riparianlife97701]

***** I love terrain following coasters. My first was Gold Rusher at Six Flags Magic Mountain. The thing is barely off the ground, but the ground is a ridge, and the coaster is on both sides.

[@bryanchase581]

this looks really fun! awesome layout

[@delaneywells930]

I love this ride so much .

[@lilycalipo1156]

Yay other people who live in erie!! the roller coaster is rlly fun ^^

[@goo5e785]

is this ride worth the 3 to 4 hour drive from Philadelphia?

[@matthewrydzak4165]

yes!!!

[@meggie6016]

Yes, the whole park is worth it

[@YourMom-us2ri]

Yes!

[@NatalieM-cq1zm]

BoeingA320 YES!!!

[@grapepotatos1921]

BoeingA320 THE WHOLE PARK IS

[@tylerrandall7599]

This is my favorite ride and their over the winter they are expanding

[@grapepotatos1921]

I think so far that I saw they added a hot air balloon ride is kiddy land. It’s like the planes in kiddy land and the teacups mashed together

[@get_moneyy6612]

I love this is my favorite ride there

[@The2Trolles]

I missed this on my mid-east coast trip in August. :(

[@scrweams8202]

this hurt my ears and eyes so much while riding it. it's a really fun roller coaster though.

[@Run4urlife13]

From Buffalo. Just rode this today. Have ridden wooden coasters all over. This one. This one is special. My balls were in my throat it was so friggan fast! And that first drop set the stage. Great little secret they have here.

[@DaveJansenTPV]

Now that KZbin is supporting 60fps, it would be amazing if you would upload your videos in 60fps. :D

[@MAGGOT6213]

I have been on it. Very jerky and fast, but worth the wait in line :)

[@almavakufac5758]

I’ve been on this ride to know enough that it is very shaky and loud to the ears, but other than that, I think this ride should be socially known around the world :)

[@lsantosrodriguez708]

You always filming onrides with gopro camera?

[@coasterforce]

***** No

[@lsantosrodriguez708]

+CREEPERZX1 gaming is OP how is that bad? is just a camer

[@tylerrandall7599]

Love this ride

[@evandimalanta2612]

I've been on this when I was 9

[@jimmydetroit87]

This was my first big coaster, and boy was it scary.

[@ebkdnb77]

looks really fun holy quick

[@fandomlover1019]

It shakes your head a lot

[@christopherrothwell9118]

Top speed 64mph😮

[@rileyg4703]

Braytayley Fan it depends where you sit

[@alexpiper973]

Love it

[@Insanlyzane]

The wooden tunnels are the most violent part of the ride though... it sounds like an earthquake and a jet engine combined. always hurts my head but everything else is awesome

[@dlmetal9606]

Is it ok if I use this POV in a video I am working on? I am planning a review for RFII and it will be my first coaster video. It will be uploaded on a different account and I will credit you in the description and video, as well as sending it to you when finished if you'd like. Thanks!

[@coasterforce]

Please use the contact form on our website for video use inquiries. Thanks

[@dlmetal9606]

@@coasterforce I will do that later. Thanks! Didn't realize there was even a website or a contact form on it otherwise I would have done that first.

[@cornellstephenson2946]

I see that there is a reason to go to Erie PA.

[@dogsvsdoggos6655]

damn this is a good coaster

[@chknnuggies]

This is my favorite wooden coaster of all time... And I was born and raised on the thunderbolt in kennywood

[@peterg644]

LoL

[@ianzwaardski]

Does it have airtime? Because it doesnt seem like on the POV

[@ryanstadler6392]

I counted 7 moments of airtime from just the pov...

[@devilsrule200]

Yes and it is quite fantastic. The second half has light floater, but the first half is pretty extreme.

[@roberiepa]

+devilsrule200 Sure does. The best airtime section is right before a drop / tunnel. You think that you will crash into the top of the tunnel.

[@diorbruh]

I love waldameer

[@coasterport]

Definitely one of the best wooden coasters! Ranked 4th in my list.

[@nutellamonster5013]

it is definitely the best. I recommend you try it out. it's absolutely fun

[@grapepotatos1921]

JAPORTY and 6th in like 2012. They say it every time

[@daveed2589]

How many degrees?

[@Titanicman300]

90 DEGREES!

[@kaydub0623]

Depends on what your taking about, the drop or the banking?

[@lsantosrodriguez708]

Finally, they finished filming at skyline park, because it has too many of rides

[@252Scooby]

This or Boulder dash ?

[@matthewcook4256]

red train is rougher then blue train so everyone should choose the blue one

[@checkeredvans1015]

Anyone live in Erie ? Favorite place to go on the summer🌝

[@shirzs]

Back seat on that would be awesome! 😝👌

[@NatalieM-cq1zm]

If your in the back you literally get dragged down the hill😝

[@KrisKombat1]

Its really faster!!!! i like it!!!

[@lilmicro01]

WOAAHHH!

[@bexyevans777]

Don't get me wrong, I'd actually go on that! 😃

[@fandomlover1019]

I go on everything at waldameer even in the water park

[@brucejaraczewski3085]

The first time I went on the ride the operator was like, are you sure you want to ride this? And I said, JUST START THE RIDE MR. OPERATOR! And he said, alright as you wish. Then after the ride I said, Alright fuck this ride its abusive! And the operator said, See what did I tell ya?

[@MicroBoy21]

look at size of that tree next to first drop. DAMN NATURE

[@deltanstudios5008]

+MicroBoy21 actually they implanted the trees over there because the city of erie approved, only if there where trees surrounding it, because there are people living around waldameer, and it would become an eyesore

[@BackSeatJunkie]

+DeltanStudios eyesore? how dare they call a roller coaster an eyesore.

[@deltanstudios5008]

ikr

[@ryleigh1012]

Btw I have been on this and it’s WAY louder

Lots o' airtime

[@chunkytoegrandma5777]

I e been on this rid and steel dragon

[@dionjyoung5987]

I hate this ride just because of the noise but that’s because it’s a wooden coaster

[@bradyfisher2115]

Went on it for first time and hated it but atleast now I can say I tried it

[@RickyyHouston]

It's faster and better than ravine flyer

[@asherraymond4430]

This coaster needs timberliner or millennium flyer trains.

[@peterg644]

The ptc trains probably work the best because of weight.

[@steveo7771286]

@@peterg644 Yeah. I think this and the Voyage are the two biggest, if not two of the biggest Gravity Group coasters and therefore need more weight on the trains, that's why they use PTC trains.
