Leap The Dips, The worlds oldest roller coaster at Lakemont Park and The Island Waterpark, Altoona, Pennsylvania

Here is a view of Leap The Dips side friction rail.

Leap The Dips may not be packed full of thrills but it is just a completely fun blast from the past that I am just thankful that the world still gets to enjoy.

Bond and I both had a complete blast riding Leap The Dips.

As I was allowed to take my camera on Leap The Dips in addition to all of the photos I switched the camera over to video mode and shot this ride so you can see for yourself how it is.

I think the easiest way to describe what riding the Skydiver must be like (I didn't even think about riding it) is to strap a bunch of Toboggan cars onto a Ferris Wheel and let you loop and spin your way around it. John and Draven tried to ride but were unable to as Lakemont requires two riders in each car to keep riders from slamming into the side of the car when it loops and both of them coundn't fit into one of the small cars.
