Mantis’s last season as a stand-up coaster: Cedar Point had already repainted it in Rougarou’s orange track and teal supports, and it reopened with floorless trains as Rougarou in 2015. Shot from under the supports over the lagoon, with Millennium Force’s lift behind. Original ThrillZing photo, taken October 19, 2014, restored and upscaled from the original camera file.
