Kennywood's Thunderbolt has a pretty awesome ending. its biggest drop is actually its last, if i recall correctly. very unusual.

May not be the worst or best but endings that suck or let down and rock or remember off the top of my head:

Suck: Adventure Express, Ravine Flyer II, Millennium Force

Rock: Voyage, Phantoms Revenge, Hang breaks on any impulse

I love donkeys more than me.

I like the Batman: The ride ending. It's super powerful and full of G-forces.
This is how we chill from 93 'til.

Best is hard for me to choose really so let me just add to the joking context for the worst.

"GradNite NO INVERSION!" need I say more? :lmao:

The Beast has the most intense helix of any ride I've been on, even when trimmed.

Worst: SOB. After literally beating you viciously, the best ending they could think of was a few meandering hills? Seriously?
no

Why do I still have a donkey title???

I have to agree about Phantom's ending being very good. ...Yet another reason for it being my second favorite steel coaster.

The only thing better than a naked woman is a naked donkey!

Best:
-Phantom's Revenge (airtime right down to the last second)
-Space Mountain (DLR) One thing I really like about this version is the progression. It seems to get more intense as the ride goes on, with the last few turns being the most intense. I still prefer the WDW version, though.

Worst:
-X2: The finale is by far the most brutal part of the ride
-Great Bear: The finale may be the fault of the location, but the ride just seems to slowly meander back to the station, even though the train is actually still moving at a descent speed. What I also don't understand is why they put the photo section on the brake run, as the turn into the brake run is by far the weakest part of the ride.

Also, another finale I am not a fan of is that of the Batman clones. The final turn seems to be the weakest turn on the ride. I do love the rest of the ride, but it has always seemed to me that the final turn should be something like an upward helix.

Some great endings:
-Runaway Mine Train @ SFOT, surprise drop and turn under the lake.
-Boulderdash, insane airtime that just keeps getting better and better until the brakes.
-Greezed Lightnin @ SFAW (soon to be Cliffs!) awesome flying unbreaked through the station and up the back spike, particularly in the back row.

Some lame endings:
-Manhattan Express. I actually really liked this ride (I know, I'm weird) but the ending is like a weird wild mouse that just won't end.
-Red Devil/Cliffhanger, slooowly mosies into the brakes and then a lifthill.
-Leviathan, ten mile-long brakerun (just kidding!)
