a tunnel appears at the start of the
2018 season eager fans tried getting a
peek behind construction fences an
announcement date was set and coaster
pieces began to arrive
now we finally know exactly what's being
planned for 2019 at cedar fairs canada's
wonderland
on august 15 2018 the tarp was removed
construction fences were open to season
pass holders and the park announced that
the major addition for 2019 will be the
b m dive coaster yukon striker few years
in the making and planning and design
but what you see behind us will
eventually go
straight up and have a 245 foot 90
degree straight drop
yukon striker will be the third b m
coaster at canada's wonderland but the
first dive coaster in canada what's
unique about a dive poster is the trains
the fact that um they're floorless so
your feet are hanging down you just got
tracked beneath you so when you pause
there for that three seconds which will
be the longest three seconds of your
life
that tunnel is gonna look so tiny
although it's like massive right but
it's gonna be great it's gonna be wild
and once your terrain makes its way into
this massive tunnel yukon striker will
reach top speeds of 130 kilometers or 80
miles per hour this is a record setting
b m dive coaster yeah sorry cedar point
but all those world records you have
outside of that ride
might have to come down because we now
have
the longest dive coaster the
fastest
and the tallest so if you're looking for
the world's fastest tallest and longest
dive coaster you'll want to head to
canada's wonderland in spring of 2019.
now in terms of inversions you can
expect to go upside down a total of four
times which includes a vertical loop and
we have the only way to train sometimes
for a dive coaster
now the 360 loop is that a little homage
to the old sky writer i'm glad you
noticed it because we actually have some
photos at some point we're going to post
from the video that we had done
positioned that place for a reason and i
noticed also the original color scheme
of skyrider is also the color scheme of
yeah absolutely yeah part of that is you
know the
it's all pulling together what we've
been doing over the last four or five
years
another announcement was that the 2019
season will officially launch the
frontier canada section of the park when
canada's wonderland first opened in 1981
the mighty canadian minebuster was built
with the intention of headlining
frontier canada it got postponed and
then it got shelved and then nothing
happened we have amazing old books and
these concept drawings of what frontier
was supposed to be
so we decided to bring this back because
we've been getting back to our canadian
bridge so
yukon striker will be the anchor
attraction of the newly themed frontier
canada and will also include lumberjack
soaring timbers whitewater canyon
timberwolf falls flying canoes and of
course the mighty canadian mind buster
one ride that was left out on the
official press release from the park was
vortex seeing how the ride is located
across the way from soaring timbers and
lumberjack and how the trains received a
new wooden theme this year i think we
can expect a little surprise in 2019
with the ride being renamed and rethemed
allowing it to officially be part of
frontier canada and that's not all
in 2019 winterfest will make its way to
canada's wonderland this winter
transformation has already been rolled
out at other cedar fair parks including
california's great america king's
dominion king's island and carowinds the
whole park is going to be transformed
into a winter wonderland we're freezing
over the fountains out in front of the
mountains we have ice skating we're
gonna have lights christmas trees we're
gonna have a 70 foot tall christmas tree
with a nightly lighting stream
great live shows holiday music and food
it's gonna be fantastic canada's
wonderland has said that these additions
for 2019 will be the largest capital
investment that's been made to the park
since it opened in 1981. there's a lot
of exciting things coming so sit back
and take a look at this pov mockup of
