'''Out and back''' simply refers to the layout of a Roller_coaster. An out and back coaster is one that climbs a Lift_hill, races out to the far end of the track, performs a 180 degree turn and then races its way back to the station.

With an out and back design the hills on the way "out" usually are quite large and gradually decrease in size. The hills on the way "back" are usually "bunny hills", or small hills created to maximize air-time. ==Examples== *Apollo's_Chariot at Busch Gardens Williamsburg *Blue Streak at Cedar_Point *Boulder Dash and Wildcat at Lake_Compounce *Comet at Hersheypark *Great American Scream Machine at Six_Flags_Over_Georgia *High Roller at Valleyfair *Rolling Thunder at Six_Flags_Great_Adventure *Rollo_Coaster at Idlewild_Park *Screamin' Eagle at Six_Flags_St._Louis *Shivering Timbers at Michigan's_Adventure *Jack Rabbit at Seabreeze_Amusement_Park - This is the 4th oldest coaster in the US. *Giant_Dipper at Santa_Cruz_Beach_Boardwalk *The Yankee Cannonball at Canobie_Lake_Park *Thunderbolt at Kennywood *Tornado at Adventureland {{ride-stub}} {{Rollercoaster tracks}} Category:Types_of_roller_coasters
