Cannonball Run is a wooden roller coaster located at Waterville USA in Gulf Shores, Alabama. It opened in 1995.

Track layout

The ride features a 65-foot lift hill and runs over and next to the park's parking lot. It is an out and back design, meaning the course goes out away from the station, turns around, then heads back to the station. Each ride cycle usually consists of two laps around the course.

Trains

Cannonball Run currently operates with one train from Philadelphia Toboggan Coasters. The train is made up of five cars, with each car seating four people (twenty riders total). The train features a seatbelt for each row and a single position lapbar.
