The story of Rougarou

Rougarou arrived at Cedar Point in 2015 as the park’s first floorless roller coaster, giving a familiar course a new chapter. sixflags.com· wlwt.com

It was a conversion of the former Mantis rather than a wholly new site. The existing track layout was retained while new B&M floorless trains were fitted. coaster101.com· wlwt.com

The transformation placed visitors in open floorless cars, leaving their feet suspended above the track as the train entered the course. coaster101.com· sixflags.com

The completed ride remains an operating steel coaster on Cedar Point’s Millennium Midway, where its sweeping structure forms part of the park’s lakeside skyline. coasterpedia.net· sixflags.com
