*9:24** You're a real G for recording this🙏. I lived in Canada for 14 years and yesterday was my first day at Canada's Wonderland , I had fun on this ride too!*

[@levisimp3860]

this is by far my favourite amusement park due to how much of a soft spot I have for it, and leviathan is definitely my favourite coaster, it never fails to make my day to see people enjoying the park!

[@mkvB58KING]

Leviathan, Behemoth and Yukon Striker are goated. I could do those 3 all day and be happy.

[@aidanlife9751]

3:49 I love the way you can see vortex slithers into frame, and the way it duels with the drop from Yukon is so good

[@lisabourque5076]

I love how excited to be here you guys are. I'm one of the people who actually loves Flight Deck (and still calls it Top Gun) Based on the rides you prefer, a fast pass would have been a good idea for you. (Until I saw the rain which opens the park up) Wondermountain's Guardian is fun at Halloween when they switch up to zombies. The wooden coasters were better before they added the dividers in the seats. I haven't been on Snoopy, but your preference for it over Backlot (Italian Job) surprises me. Vortex is still one of my favourites. I love the little bit of mist that comes off the water from the coaster getting so close. It still has a full line most of the time. On Dragon Fyre, while riding in the front - look up on the loops to see the back cars - pretty cool. Just the fact that Sledgehammer is running is shocking lol

[@danc1513]

I haven't been to Wonderland since 1998 - oh man I'm getting old - But back then Vortex was absolutely my favourite ride. Still a great ride despite its age. Suspended roller coasters are pretty rare now. I hope Vortex will continue for a while longer.

[@loonylovesgood]

I love Vortex!!

[@camerachris]

I’m so old I remember when you could walk up to the top of Wonder Mountain, or even behind the falls. One summer it was so hot a bunch of us just jumped into the water at the base of the falls and we got a good half hour swim before they brought security to get us all out. Then we threw our friends hat in the water and he jumped back in to get it and they were going to throw us out of the park but we said the wind blew it into the water and they let us go on with our day. Things were wild back then.

[@chrisaburto95]

Vortex was the 4th most ridden coaster of 2023, just behind the big three. Its still the best arrow suspended coaster out there, and I personally don't think they'll remove it anytime soon

[@michael7054]

Great video! That suspended coaster was moving so fast! It looked really fun! Lots of great coasters and flat rides there! Im looking forward to the next Vlog!

The back of leviathan is so much better. The crazy fast whip you get when the rest of it is down the drop. Insane

[@ToeJam-dt8nm]

I have gone to this park every year since it opened in 1981, The Bat was the first roller coaster I ever went on. PSA to anyone watching this video, the lines he experienced here are very short compared to a hot sunny day on a weekend, you can expect about a 2-hour wait to get on Leviathan and 1:45 for Behemoth. Even the large pathways can be a challenge to walk to the next coaster/ride. Great Video though! 😊

[@CoasterVerse]

Canada’s Wonderland was an awesome park that I would kill to go back to. Leviathan is so so good!!

[@Patexer]

So mid, Minebuster better

[@Rexred09]

⁠​⁠@@PatexerMinebuster is an ancient rumbling, uncomfortable, shaky mess of a ride that has not aged well. I swear ive seen dinosaur fossils younger than that thing. Leviathan is leagues better and leagues scarier.

[@CoasterDash]

The merchandise in this park rocks!

[@pepsidiet26]

The best amusement park in Canada!! ❤ i was here this summer for the very first time and i liked it!!!

[@rebeccaschmidt7848]

Oh wooooow 😮 I remember how rough those wooden coaster used to feel when I was going there regularly as a teenager back in the '90's. The fact that they even have them running anymore blows my mind. They were old back then, and I'm going to be 40 this year. MY mother used to ride them when SHE was teenager 😵

[@Duelingdragons382]

They retracked some parts of both their big wooden coasters recently, that’s why it was smooth.

[@calvinpetty343]

Interesting!

[@NoahCaldeira]

[@loonylovesgood]

I appreciate you reviewing family coasters as well! Not many coasters enthusiasts will do that. Enjoyed your video a lot - thanks for bringing back memories of my favourite park!

[@pinlight97]

You can see my house from there…somewhere in those burbs. I was there as a kid in the opening year! Vortex and the Snoopy coasters are as good as I get for those types of rides. I dig all the spinny rides though! Given how close I live…should probably go back as I haven’t been in years! I’ve always loathed the lines though…just way too long.

[@olliemcintyre]

I have been to Canada’s Wonderland before, it’s one of the cedar fair parks that is closer to me and near me, I have been there last year and I did the Leviathan, Wilde Beast, Vortex a quite a few times, Silver Streak and White Water Canyon and Timberwolf Falls and Tundra Twister and Thunder Run and Klockwerks. When I went there Splash Works was closed due to inclement weather. The only downside to it was that they didn’t allow me to film on the rides with my GoPro. But it’s for safety reasons and that’s ok. It didn’t ruin my whole day. It was a lot of fun when I went there last year and it’s going to be a lot of fun when I go back there in the end of the summer holidays this year when Splash Works is open and when everything is open. I hope to get a Prestige Pass so I could go there for 2 days in a row to do everything at Canada’s Wonderland including the rollercoasters, the flat rides and all the waterslides and water attractions. It’s a lot of fun there and I hope you had fun! 😀

[@MrFlubbergem]

Getting the interaction with Vortex on Yukon Striker is nice. The new flat ride interacts too.

[@justylex]

Love to see the love for Vortex. Not big, but just super fun and so smooth. Always been a favourite of mine. I also love Sledgehammer. Have not been to Wonderland since prior to Covid, but it used to break down constantly.

[@Calakapepe]

Another fun mention.. since you bring up leviathans brake run. KI's final brake run is about 3ft different from the top height of the racer 😅 luckily the topography helps diminish the comparison to the racer. Looks like Wonderland has a few more winners than ppl say! Even the woodies look pretty fun

[@SiddantKanthi21]

probably the best review of canada's wonderland yet i have seen in my 14 years here in woodbridge

[@JeremyCoasters]

One time I got a ride on Tundra Twister where It dove head first and went through the platform upside down! Like a Top Spin inversion but much faster. Crazy intense.

Absolutely love CW! For me, every ride here was really good, or really bad.. was at Kennywood for the first time on the same day the vlog was filmed haha! Phantom's Revenge absolutely lived up to the hype it was getting

[@CoasterDash]

I agree! But it’s a great park putting rides aside too. Kennywood is also a lot of fun. Glad you had a good visit 🙌🏻

[@jasonstamp10]

Vortex is my all-time favorite ride at Canada's Wonderland. It's maybe not as smooth of a ride as it used to be 20 years ago but it's still excellent. It's deceptively fast coming off the mountain and in those turns. I rode it in the rain one time, that hurt lol with the rain pelting my face at those speeds. I had to close my eyes most of it.

[@DarroujGaming]

Canadas Wonderland is my home park, and I agree, the front entrance is great, and I also love Wonder Mountain. Im happy you came to visit!

[@robertedgar1329]

Felt fun just watching this video have not been to Wonderland in over 20 years .

[@PimpMasterT]

Sledge Hammer used to run different. It was longer and had a lot more suspense between going up or down. It used to go up 4 times, with each time speeding you up more, and on the 3rd trip back down, it would fake you out and go only half way, then drop. The 4th launch would go up, then drop you almost instantly (looks like it still does that). Such a great ride and I'm glad it wasn't out of service for your trip.

Just as an FYI for Behemoth...you get WAY more airtime sitting in the very back row!!!!

[@coley1555]

great video. grew up going to wonderland for nearly 30 years and got to see it evolve so much. when i first went it was vortex, dragonfire, and top gun (flight deck) as the best coasters. top gun would beat the shit out of you though! the bat was fun too, but short with a crazy line. behemoth and sledgehammer getting added was incredible and leviathan is easily the newest favourite for me. riding leviathan during halloween haunt in the dark is the peak experience. the drop tunnel and the dragon feature outside light up and look so cool.

[@bilalaft17]

My childhood memories are also from here, man I want to go back to this place. I don't think I've been here for almost 10-12 years and I really want to go this summer.

i don't live far from here but its been quite a while since I went... I do remember riding leviathan the same summer it opened and that was one of the craziest things I've ever experienced in my life. Literally had tears flying straight back across my face from the speed. I had to sit on the ground for several minutes afterwards to come to grips with gravity again lmao

[@A.I-GAMING]

[@JohnSmith-mk5xm]

Nice vlog! Just got back from here 2 months ago. For me, Leviathan blew Orion out of the water. I couldn’t find much similarities to them as I found Orion below most B&M hypers while Leviathan ended up being one of the best rides in North America. Leviathan is right up there with Fury and Goliath (SFOG) for my top 3 B&Ms.

[@ryryt8634]

I’m going there again next week, I am so hyped

[@CoasterDash]

Have a great visit!

[@Scj9700]

Fun fact about dragon fire: It was originally gonna have 3 cars. But the ride length was to short. So the supposed 3rd car ended up going to the bat instead. That ride that pulls you up and brings you through a double loop before going up a hill then you go backwards the way you came.

[@Alex_skittles1]

I absolutely love wonderland! I’m coming up there soon.

[@MCSquidward]

I love a giga insert coaster after 😂

[@CoasterHunter7]

Awesome video of my home park! Just wondering, how do you film on the rides is it just a GoPro?

[@chrisaburto95]

I rode Yukon Striker at night front row once, and holy crap we took that vertical loop so damn fast it was nuts

[@whoknew2273]

You need a week at this park with the water park as well so much to explore

[@tays_titanicx]

Leviathan is so worth the wait cause I waited 2 hrs and the ride closed 3 times due to weather but we got on and worth 2 hrs :)

Can't believe it was 2009 when the last time I visited Canada's Wonderland. I remember riding 11 Roller Coasters that time, including Behemot, 2x (love it). The 11th roller coaster was Vortex, which turned my stomach & head up & down, this was severe, and threw up... will never ride this Vortex again. Well, I want to return, its about time... try Leviathan & Yukon Striker, plus other amazing rides... except, again, the bloody hell Vortex, never again. 😀

2:33 In 2012 I had the opportunity to be in the first group of people to ride the Leviathan, a day or week before the public (May 2012). It was part of my Physics class high-school field trip. I chickened out, haha. Rollercoasters aren't my thing. 2:56 Yeah, the Yukon Striker wasn't there when I was there in 2012, haha. Leviathan held the record, topping the Behemoth.

[@matthewpeloza9249]

Wilde Beast -> RMC Great Canadian Mine Buster -> Titan Track They’d both be world class rides instead of rides to avoid because of pain they cause.

[@CoasterDash]

I agree! This is a marvelous idea 🙌🏻

[@justylex]

I was there as a kid the first week it opened back in ‘81…..which means I am old🤣. Back then, there were no rides on or in the mountain, and you could walk to the top

All of Behemoth's trims were on when I rode it. Due to that, it's on the bottom half of my B&M hyper list.

You missed out on the log flume, the starblaster, the turkish twist, and the extreme frisbee. The corkscrew was a headbuster anyway.

[@905Metalhead]

Behemoth and Leviathan are so much better in the back row than the front row. Next time you’re up, try it. Also, this video highlights the need for Fast Lane at CW. An hour for Levi in the rain lol.

@@905Metalhead Thanks for the tip! We ride a lot off-camera, and did both several times in back rows. Behemoth is absolutely a back row coaster, but Leviathan is definitely best experienced in the front for me personally.
