Jr. Gemini is a roller coaster at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio. The ride is located near Gemini in the park, and is named after its big brother. After exiting the 19-foot-tall lift hill, the roller coaster train goes through a 270-degree turn to the left. This is followed by a small dip. Finally, the train goes through a 270-degree turn to the right which leads to the station. Because the ride is so short, riders are sent through the roller coaster twice.

Jr. Gemini is notably the first roller coaster ever manufactured by Intamin AG.
