Super Shot (also known as Freefall or Cannonball) is a type of drop tower amusement ride. There are 12 seats per car. The ride ascends the tower by cable with passengers facing outwards from the ride. When the car reaches the top, it drops rapidly. As the car reaches the bottom of the tower, it slows through magnetic or air-powered brakes.[1]
