The Cyclone is a New York City landmark It’s an old wooden roller coaster from the 1920’s. This is something everyone should try to do before they die.
The Cyclone was originally built in 1927. The coaster uses a chain to pull the train to the top of the 1st plunge, it then runs on its own momentum reaching up to 68 mph through 9 drops and 6 curves.
Wooden roller coasters are a fantastic experience, and this one is no exception! Ride an attraction your grandparents rode as kids, and experience a thrill that hasn't decreased with age!
The Cyclone is a landmark & a wood rollercoaster . Beware, your neck may ache when you get off the ride.

Here's a great tip in the off-season - come by Coney Island on a very foggy or snowy day , and have a private photo-shoot with your favorite coaster!
The classic wooden roller coaster remains the best and most fun
Really fun, nice and rickety
Riding in the front car affords riders the best view , while sitting in the rear gives the feeling of greater speed.
A must-do for all New Yorkers. If at all positive, though, avoid the back cars... genuinely painful and rocky.
Scariest coaster ever . Feels like it might fall apart any minute. But that's why it's so fun.
It’s been many years since I have been on this and wow! The thrill is still there????
Best ride in the park !
Extremely rickety and extremely amazing! Just do it.
Built in 1927 but it's still a hell of a lot of fun!
For some reason I tend to be more photogenic on rollercoasters .
I thought I was scared only because it was so old and rickety . But that was one wild ride! Sit in the front!
Worth the wait!
For a roller coaster 90 years old it's still excellent
Sit in the first car! The view is simply amazing!!!!
Oldest coaster in the U.S. and still thrilling. Watch for back pains though!
Everything is great here!
Built in 1927 and still fun!
you might die on this ride but its so fun
Never knowing if you will careen off the track only adds to the excitement
This ride has been here since 1927! Meets the hype
I wasn't scared per se, but it really jolted me around, and was painful in the back and neck. Still fun though!
The first rides of the historic roller coaster began on June 26, 1927. Over 80 years later, the Cyclone is still thrilling thousands of riders each year.
ALWAYS sit in the front & put your hands up on the 1st drop.Best. Rollercoaster . EVER.

The scariest part is that I felt like the ride was going to fall apart on me
Brace your neck before the final drop!

Super fun. The best roller coaster in Coney Island, although a little bit overpriced for the time it lasts. - Alex M.
The wildest thrill rides in Coney Island! Race the go-karts. Strap into Boardwalk Flight to soar over the boards at over 60mph. Don't forget to get the on-board video of your screams on the Slingshot! - Luna Park Coney Island

A nice moderate roller coaster especially if you don't feel like going upside down anymore. Line moves quickly. - Ailie Chang
It’s not just about the carousel and the park. It’s the whole journey over. It’s a great place to look back onto the city and reflect on what it means/takes to be living in NYC. - Jessi Singh
A great place to basecamp during the Mermaid Parade. Delicious food. Very large draft beers (reasonably priced too). Has a large seating area outside. - Gabriel Hayes
