  1. u can take some Dramamine before u go, its a motion sickness pill, it should help!!

    = )


  2. The Wildcat has so many sharp, fast twists, turns and hills. I can never enjoy that ride, because it makes me feel sick, and gives me a headache.

    There are really great suggestions here!

    The Mine Ride and the Mean Streak are two really great rides, however, those will throw you around, and are very rickety, so, if you get sick easily, avoid those as well.

  3. well, the wildcat crashed this year and is no longer operating so u wont have to worry about it hurting your stomach.  the only thing i can think of is dont eat to much because that might upset it.

  4. Maybe its the drops. There is a lot on that ride although they are small. Millennium force only has one drop at the beginning. I recommend taking a big inhale while going up hills then exhale when going down the hill. Also find something in the car that you can press your foot against sternly and push your weight when going down the hills. This helps the impact of the stomach drop. These methods help me and i hope they help you!

  5. all these people gave you great advice.  but my question is what was the weather like that day?  if it was very hot and sunny and you were dehydrated you would feel like c**p too..  so stay hydrated keep some food in your stomach, use sunscreen and stay in the shade if you get overheated and enjoy your day

  6. Believe it or not, with all the times I've been to Cedar Point since I was a kid, I've never been on Wildcat!!  I can't believe it!

    Ok, off my soapbox now.  Sorry.  Wildcat is designed to be a zigzagging, quick dropping coaster for families.  I'm betting it was the quick motions that got to you.  I think if you skip it altogether on your next trip, you'll be fine.  If you're really worried though, take some Dramamine.  It's a motion sickness pill.  You're supposed to take it about 30 minutes before any activity (like riding coasters).  If you take right before you get to the park, you should be fine for the rest of the day, or at least a few hours.  

    The key to fighting motion sickness is balance.  Don't hit ride after ride after ride.  Especially if you're riding the fast looping ones right after each other.  The flips can really do a person in.  If you take a break between rides (even the wait in line could count as a break since most line times run 30 minutes to 2 hours), you're giving your body a break, and allowing it to recover from the sudden movements.  I like to use this time to catch a show, grab a snack, or shop.  Of course, nothing says you have to ride each and every ride your friends go on.  You don't have to ride every coaster.  Pick the ones you know you like, and stick with those.  Have fun at Cedar Point.....it's an awesome park!!

  7. Wildcat is a bad idea everytime.

    If I ever get sick there normally it would be from Max-Air. The wildcat i could see doing it too.

    I would just maybe after eating take a longer break, some reason eating once seems to work for me.

    So I wouldn't worry about getting sick. Just try the coasters and skip the other c**p

    Mellenium is always a good choice, Maverick, Dragster, Raptor, and Mantis are all smooth and great rides. you should try them.
