The Gemini Rollercoaster at Cedar Point, Sandusky, Ohio

Gemini was added to Cedar Point in June of 1978 and has really been the parks capacity champ ever since.

Gemini is an interesting coaster for a couple of reasons.  First off it is Arrow taking their mine train design to the extremes by building a coaster taller and significantly steeper than any of their previous mine train designs.

Secondly it is an interesting design as Arrow used wood structure for such a tall ride instead of sticking with metal supports like they were using for their looping steel coasters at the time.

Gemini is one of my favorite Arrow coasters as I have yet to have a bad ride on it.

Gemini has wonderful dips, airtime, speed, and when the trains are side by side you are close enough to be able to hand slap others riding on the other track.
