Outlaw, Wooden roller coaster in Altoona, Iowa, United States

The Outlaw is a wooden roller coaster in Altoona, Iowa, built from yellow pine and constructed by Custom Coasters International. The ride features multiple descents and turns that guide passengers through its full course.

The coaster opened in 1993 as part of Adventureland's 20th anniversary celebration, marking an important milestone for the park. This addition helped establish the park as a major regional attraction during its second decade of operation.

The ride displays classic elements of American amusement engineering through its drops and curves, typical of traditional wooden coasters. Visitors can experience the craftsmanship of an era when such attractions were designed without modern computer technology.

Riders must be at least 48 inches tall to board this attraction. The full experience lasts about two minutes and works well for visitors of all skill levels.

This coaster was designer Mike Boodley's first major project and established the signature style that would later influence numerous rides across North America. The innovations from this early design remain visible in many modern attractions today.
