I-X Indoor Amusement Park 2012

My first visit to the Indoor Amusement Park at the I-X Center in Cleveland, Ohio. Filmed Sunday, March 25th, 2012. Many thanks to Alan & Meredith for letting me hang out with them!

It's open for about a month during March and April every year. You can go to ixcenter.com for more info.

Nice! I ran into a Vietnam vet over the weekend who noticed I had a CX130. He showed me his (I think) CX180 and we started talking about video. That's cool you got another CX110.

I actually forgot to thank you for keeping the summer alive by showing this early spring ride video. It definitely gives me the feeling that it is amusement weather even on the east coast. Thanks again Bob~

This looks absolutely wonderful! What an amazing family trip this would make! Excellent videography also!

Some of the larger chains, such as Six Flags are now contemplating just that for parts of the country that are a good distance from the nearest larger theme park...

Always a good time hanging out. Love the video you got, especially some of the POVs.

I go there every year with my family and sometimes my friends! It's really fun I can't wait to go again!

[CoasterBob]

The I-X Center is in Cleveland, next to the airport. Unfortunately, the amusement park isn't open year-round. Last day (for now) is April 15th.

Nicely done. Well photographed, very colorful and great detail. They seem to have everything on the planet there except full-sized roller coasters

This indoor amusement park is awesome! It's just the ticket people need to forget their winter depression! There's enough thrills, chills and fun for the whole family! Gosh, I wish this company expanded their operations to include more snow bound states so people can beat their long, cold, depressing winter blues while having terrific/sensational fun INDOORS! *Sigh.* One can only hope, wish and imagine!

I haven't been to the I-X Center since the 8th grade, I use to go every year as a kid. What happened to the Water Coaster and the "Space Coaster"? They most likely got rid of them. It doesn't look crowded anymore either, it used to be packed with people in the IX; memories... lol.

[SeanFlaharty]

Nice job Bob! I really loved the tilt-shift segment in the middle. I also love that final shot from the parking lot.

I haven't been to the IX since 1998. I need to go back someday.

[CoasterBob]

I had a great time! You guys are the best. After seeing the YoYo POV when I got home, I realized I should have done more of those.

[CoasterBob]

I wish it was all year long. It was only there for about 3-1/2 weeks. Won't be back until March 2013.

[DisneyMarkUK]

Is this open all year or is it like a state fun fair that's only temporary? Cheers

[benboyrocks]

It's only a week long event. It's right next to the Cleveland airport. It goes on through April 15!

[CoasterBob]

Thank you! It's a great place for someone like me who likes to film rides.

I went to the IX amusement park one time with my sister and my parents when I was little. I don't remember it being that great though.

This building was was owned by the US Military. They at one time used to build army tanks there. It has 2, 200, 00sq ft of exhibition space. It is the largest in the USA. Just look up I-X Center on wikipedia

[CoasterBob]

It should be there again next spring. It'll be posted on their website
