I really like this wooden coaster for some reason. Its a classic, designed by one of the original coaster designers in the 20s. The air time is ridiculous, you are leaving your seat constantly, and you probably spend more time out of it than in it. Defiantly a fun experience.

I loved this coaster. Smooth, great air over a few dips, and just a lot of fun. A classic coaster. I never wanted to stop riding this one, it was that good. Though not as intense or well laid out as something like Dominator, this coaster provides a much more enjoyable, fun experience.

This is 1 of my favorite rides at Geauga Lake it has tons of air time, lots of hills, and a restraint that doesnt touch you. Its a true classic coaster.

This is a great ride with an interesting layout. Tons of airtime. The cars are a little tight, but other than that it is great.

This is the second best coaster at GL. Its a great, classic woodie with some very nice airtime. The re-tracked back part also makes for a pretty smooth ride throughout. Dont skip this one

A very good woodie. Absolutely great airtime is the highlight of this ride but this ride is also dripping with the old school feel. Compliments Villain very well. A lot of the general public often overlooks this ride leading to relatively short lines as well. Could be the best kept coaster secret at Geauga Lake and possibly even the entire state of Ohio.

I completly agree with snap43nib on the fact that the big dipper is way underrated. The big dipper is a much more enjoyable ride than MANY steel roller coasters that I have ridden. And really, sit in the back and youll know what I mean,the air time is so intense that hanging on for dear life isnt a bad idea.

A great vintage wood coaster. Big Dipper is also one of the most underrated coasters out there and along with Villian is the only reason to visit this park.

Great old woodie I dont find it rough at all. Nice airtime plus the location is unique. Right in the middle of the park. Good view of other rides. For me seems to offer a better ride each time I go, course the addition of seatbelts suck, but in our sue happy world whats a park to do.
