I love Yankee Cannonball. Its so much fun. But IMO the seatbelts TOTALLY ruined the ride, and it sucks that they added them. But as always, Cannonball is a wicked good ride!

Only one downside: seatbelts. But this ride is so good that it is hard to ruin it. Great airtime and the perfect amount of roughness. Third favorite coaster of all time.

This was my first coaster, and it's such a great ride. I havn't ridden it for a few years, so I don't really know how it is with the belts. I did like the ride alot, had alot of air. It stands #3 on my over all coaster list.

Ok... So I rode it this year with the belts, and all in all the ride wasn't that bad. The ride still has A LOT of airtime and runs very smooth. Still my #3 wood.... an awesome ride that seems to get overlooked too much.

They need to work on load times though... A lot of the ops were just talking to each other, or having to recheck all the bars because someone sat on the belt or something. They need to get a two train program again to speed things up like it used to be.

This ride is a perfect example of how Roller Coasters do not need to be record breaking to be fun.
