Steel Vengeance

Steel Vengeance is a wooden roller coaster located in Cedar Point near Sandusky, Ohio, that combines a timber frame with steel track sections. The ride reaches a height of approximately 205 feet (62 m) and runs over a total track length of more than 5,400 feet (1,646 m).

The ride opened in 2018 after a complete reconstruction of an older wooden coaster dating from 1991. The overhaul replaced the original timber tracks with steel rails and redesigned the entire route.

The Mean Streak represented the final phase of traditional wooden coaster construction before parks shifted toward steel and hybrid designs in the 1990s.

The trains seat up to 24 riders total, arranged in single seats one behind the other. Visitors should prepare for rapid shifts between steep drops and tight turns.

The structure uses over 1.5 million boards of yellow pine timber for its supporting frame. This wooden construction ranks among the largest of its kind in the amusement industry.
