The Best Coaster Finales I’ve Experienced! (2023)

[@tentenchu8140]

Phoenix has an excellent finale. With four straight bunny hops that produce violent ejector airtime with just a buzz bar, one can't help but wonder how it's legal.

I was gonna say Lightning Rod is my favorite, but I think it’s gotta be Steel Dragon 2000, I tend to forget I ever rode that thing

[@PoshLife123]

I absolutely 100% agree on Goliath Six Flags Georgia. Love it, love it, LOVE IT!!! That airtime is sheer awesomeness. My homepark has Nitro which I also love but after experiencing Goliath this past summer, it's definitely my favorite hyper. And that layout is unlike any of the others.👍👍👍

- Iron Rattler, from the 2nd drop on - Superman The Ride (SFNE) - Maverick

[@TrueLies23]

Wwwwwhat is up Cedar Flags! My favorite finale changes so much, but I'd say it is SV at CP mostly. I havent gotten to IoA, but my mom was just there and she was amazed by Velocicoaster. Oddly enough, she hasnt been on SV amongst others at CP

[@SnowghostFilms]

An interesting idea? How many roller coasters end as they began, like with a very similar element? Maybe Iron Rattler but what else?

Whether you count the quad down as part of the finale or not, the finale on Lightning Rod is one of the best. You absolutely rocket over that last airtime pop and then charge at full speed into that over bank and then get launched on the descent into the brakes. Everyone comes off feeling like their heads have exploded. I'll also vouch for the rapid transitions at the end of I305 and the final raven turn and ending on X2 are probably the most insane endings.

Lightning Rod & the 2nd half of Ghostrider

[@JohanvandeWouw]

Untamed at Walibi Holland has an ending similar to SteVe, but with a heartline roll.

[@mitchellries256]

My favorite finales are the ones on Phantoms Revenge at Kennywood with that last minute ejector moment, the splashdown finales on Sheikra at Busch Gardens Tampa, Griffon at Busch Gardens Williamsburg, and Diamondback at Kings Island, the sudden but smooth slowdowns on B&M hypers like Raging Bull at Six Flags Great America and Mako at SeaWorld Orlando, and the out of nowhere stops on Kumba at Busch Gardens Tampa, and B&M inverts like Montu at Busch Gardens Tampa, and Alpengeist at Busch Gardens Williamsburg.

Storm Chaser is a top 10 finale

[@markvolpe2305]

My favorite finale is Ride Of Steel at Six Flags Darien Lake with the twisted camel back hill and the 2 bunny hills after it going towards the station at full speed is awesome! I'm assuming the mirrored clone at Six Flags America is the same way?

[@garysteeley1932]

The Beast double helix

[@terrancepounds1090]

Lightning Rod, Lightning Run, Outlaw Run

[@cedarflags]

Lightning Run’s Finale is awesome! I’m considering making a part 2 and that will definitely be there

[@StamfordBridge]

My favorite finales: 2. Lightning Rod; 1. Phoenix.

[@ThomasReece86]

The fact that Adventure Express at Kings Island is not on this list is criminal.

[@ryanmcdonnell5988]

Steel Vengeance has my favorite finale

[@gilbertceballos8674]

Iron rattler for me!

[@jmcbango]

Agreed that goliath >>> fury
