Cedar Point took guests to new heights in 2005 with the introduction of maXair. Riders on this ultimate thrill ride sit in outward-facing suspended seats that form a giant circle of 50 passengers; their legs dangle freely, and each seat has an individual shoulder restraint and restraining belt. maXair swings riders back and forth in a seemingly out-of-control pendulum motion while rotating counterclockwise. At the peak of the pendulum movement that reaches a maximum speed of 70 mph, riders are upside down 140 feet above the ground and experience ?airtime? ? that coveted feeling of weightlessness that is popular for thrill-seekers on roller coasters. The dynamic return drop generates a variety of sensations on riders depending on their specific position in the counterclockwise rotation, creating a different ride experience each time.
In its first season, maXair gave 842,796 thrilling rides. maXair is located just off Cedar Point?s Main Midway near Kiddy Kingdom and Space Spiral. Guests must be at least 52 inches tall to ride maXair.
