The last time I went to CP (late July) there was virtually no wait for the Wicked Twister (this was on a Friday). I had never been on it before so I was pleasantly surprised. Riding in the front was pretty sweet except for the host of dead bugs on my shirt afterward (lot of little gnats over by that ride since it's right on Lake Erie).
I forgot to mention Power Tower (though not a coaster) - I love that ride. Even when the park got pretty busy there wasn't much of a line for Power Tower. It's a quick ride but it really is a rush.

Power Tower is one of the best rides there. Totally underrated. When it first came out, the lines were incredibly long. Hard to believe that it's been around for 11 years now, and that the lines have dwindled so much. The ridership is down about 800,000 riders a year from 1998.
Being shot up is also utterly weak. Gotta go down, every time.

I haven't tried to go on Wicked Twister in a long time. It was broken down so often in its early years that it was hardly ever an option.
My most underrated ride at Cedar Point is the Wildcat. I love that one. Still really fun even though its really old. Only problem with it is the line moves really slow since only 3-4 people go at a time.
