The Powder Keg rollercoaster at Silver Dollar City, Branson, MO

You get some nice air in the front of Powder Keg but both Greg and I were in agreement that the back is really where it is at.

After the lift hill and drop Powder Keg takes you into a nice helix before hitting the brakes.

Here you can see the transition from S&S track into the old Premier brake run.

What's cool is the Powder Keg is a family launched coaster meaning that anyone over thirty-six inches can ride.  It's not too intense but it it is full of something that a lot of "extreme" coasters seem to be lacking which is fun.  It's hard to ride Powder Keg without getting off with a huge smile on your face.  I want more of these coasters at parks all across the country.
