Help with fitting on rides at Dollywood

[talon1189]

I am 53 years old and am wondering how my brother and myself would fit in both "Thunderhead, Tennessee Tornado, and Wild Eagle" ??? We are both 250 + and 6'2 tall. All weight is on our stomachs at our age. Be honest here......will we have ride issues from your experiences? Thanks......Talon

Hi! I edited the topic title for you as "I am new" isn't going to let people know what info you're asking for. Descriptive titles will help other members find your topic and help provide info. Welcome to the boards!

Thanks for the heads up buddy.

I think you will be fine. I'm 6-1 and about 240; I fit on X-Flight (another B&M wing rider at Great America) just fine. You shouldn't have any problems.

Thunderhead has very liberal restraints.

 

Can't tell you for certain about Tennessee Tornado, but I think those with larger chest areas should be more concerned with the restraints.

Regarding Wild Eagle, most of the complaints regarding restraints have come from smaller riders (as in the restraints tend to squeeze the breath out of them as they ride). Good luck.
