benzo41190 Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 This morning I measured myself (not that way) and I noticed that I am 6' 3". Then I noticed that V2 and De Ja Vu has a height limit. Is anyone over 6' 3" and if they are, have you been able to get on these rides? I hope that I cant go on half the coasters that are out there because of my height.

CoasterFanatic Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 At 6'3" there are only 2 rides that you are in fear of missing out on (besides kiddie coasters of course): Vekoma Jr Inverteds Chance Revolution 32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tngdiablo Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 Arrow Mine Trains will also probably be tough to get into. I can say for certain that the Runaway Mine Train at GAdv will not accomodate someone of your stature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Johnson Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 I believe that 6'3" is the maximum height for a Vekoma Inverted coaster. I was able to go on the Runaway Repta coaster at Carowinds last summer....but It was a close call. I almost was unable to earn this credit.

HCOSurfer90 Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 Actually..SFGadv's Runaway Mine Train is getting new single person Restraints this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rollerholden Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 My dad and I are both 6' 3" and when we rode Deja Vu at SFMM they measured him but not me, we were able to ride but it was quite tight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benzo41190 Posted December 28, 2005 Author Share Posted December 28, 2005 And the bad thing is, I am still growing and I might hit 6' 4" :shock:. Also, do you think there is a slight possibility of getting on DejaVu over 6' 3". I mean do they even check.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_rock401 Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 I'm 6'4" and enough change to get a cup of coffee, and the only thing I've been denied boarding on was the Riptide at KBF, believe it or not. Mind you, this was the third time of the day I'd gone on it, and the previous 2 were problem-free. I'm very close on Xcel and Steel Venom, and have to sit in the front row on Viper, Boomerang, and Corkscrew.

Also, do you think there is a slight possibility of getting on DejaVu over 6' 3". I mean do they even check.... I'm pretty sure that 6' 4" is the maximum height limit for Deja Vu. If you ever get to be 6'4" or above, just wear thin shoes and try to slouch down a little, or something, to look shorter. I am 6'2" and am expected to be 6'4" by the time I stop growing.

Paul Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 You wouldn't be able to ride any of the Superman: Ride of Steel coasters. They have a limit of 6' 2". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benzo41190 Posted December 30, 2005 Author Share Posted December 30, 2005 No!!!! Are you serious I have only been on the one at SFNE and the other ones look so cool There goes credits I will never get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinkerbell Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 I know V2 has a height restriction but I think it's 6'5, so that probably wouldn't be a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 ^^Yes, the limit was changed from 6' 4" to 6' 2" after the guy fell out of the SFNE version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rollerholden Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Omg I want to ride those Supermans so bad!! Maybe I'll just have to slouch if I ever get there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benzo41190 Posted December 30, 2005 Author Share Posted December 30, 2005 I thought the guy fell out because he was overweight? But I guess with those leg things it would probaly be very uncomfortable anyway? They should make overweight seats, average seats, and tall people seats.

Rollerholden Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 They should make overweight seats, average seats, and tall people seats. Glad someone else agrees!! I mean come on, lots of people are as tall as us.. 6' 3" and such, some people taller. It's pretty ridiculous to have a height restriction anywhere near 6' 2".

V2-dude Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Seeing that the trains have stadium style seating, I don't see why tall people can't sit in the lower seats. I heard Millenium Force had a 6'2" too. Edit: Due to rider restraint system requirements, guests of exceptional size may not be accommodated on some of our rides. This may apply, but not be limited to, males who exceed 6'2", and those who exceed 225 pounds, have a 40" waistline or 52" chest or females who exceed 200 pounds or wear size 18 or larger. Each person has different body proportions, so it is impossible to determine exact size and weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canobie Fan Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 ^^Yes, the limit was changed from 6' 4" to 6' 2" after the guy fell out of the SFNE version. Im 6.2 and I ride SROS all the time... I have been on all 3 before the new limit and 2 after the new one.. I have never been checked.. I have also seen people taller then me get on SROS SFNE a lot...
