Cadeus Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 How are the seats and harnasses for windseeker? Are they okay for bigger people.. been trying to find out some information on this through the internet.. I can't seem to find anything though? Do any of you guys have information about it?

TJ27 Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 Windseeker was closed when i went to CP... But I'm guessing larger people would have trouble riding it because it uses a lap bar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gforce532 Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 They are actually very comfortable and roomy. I am 220lbs and I fit perfectly fine on it. The only thing that I hate about them is that they have this very large anti-slip bump (can't think of another name for it) on the seat right below your private area, that is not guy friendly at all. But its there for a good reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geauga Dog Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 If you have a big belly you might have a problem with fastening the belt. I've ridden Kings Island's and have seen the ride ops have trouble with getting the restraint fastened on larger people. Other than that the seats are comfortable.

simon8899 Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 (edited) I like the old-style seats like on Waveswingers and other chainflyers more - they even used them on early Starflyers like on the one at Tivoli Gardens. The new seats kill too much thrill for me.... And of course seats should be attached with chains - so you can swing a little back and forth....

ernierocker Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Are we supposed to be psychic and already know what your weight and height are??? Because "bigger people" is very subjective... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadeus Posted July 26, 2011 Author Share Posted July 26, 2011 Are we supposed to be psychic and already know what your weight and height are??? Because "bigger people" is very subjective... Sorry here are the stats.. Was at 340 when i went to universal last summer.. could fit the big boy seats but just barely.. I have lost about 45 pounds putting me under 300.. I am about 295. 6' 1''. I am hoping that raptor will be a go.. don't really care to ride MF.. Going to try but not going to be heart broken if it is a no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
