cincyboy0830 Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 I'm 6'3" tall and I have a tough time on older rides like Vortex with OTSR and SOB's old trains. However, I fit great on the newer rides like Invertigo, Firehawk and the Drop Tower... so that's good lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iChase Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 I AM too big to ride. I can't ride most of the "best" coasters at CP, like MF, TTD, probably Mantis now, and many more. I've only gotten to ride MF and TTD once and that was a squeeze. That was back when I was 14. I've always been a big guy. I'm not a morbidly obese person but I'm a very large build. Luckily I'm tall so that counteracts the weight and wideness. If I lost weight I doubt I still doubt I could fit on any of those rides. My ideal weight is around 250, I'm 335. That's my goal though. I want to be able to ride MF and TTD again. My mom promised me if I could fit on TTD again she would ride it with me. Trust me, I'll hold her to that.

art_star Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 A good family friend didn't go to KI with us because he was VERY large and couldn't fit on many rides. I think it is sad, but that made him lose 250 punds so that's good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 I have a tough time fitting in at 5'9" and 142lbs lol. My friend who's 6'3" is sometimes uncomfortable in The Vortex though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is sad, but that made him lose 250 punds so that's good. Wow. That's impressive. I have a friend of mine is about the same weight as me but about half as tall. It makes me sad when I can't take him to KI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flightoffear1996 Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 Im 6 foot 3 and 225 pounds. I can ride all the rides at any park of been too. Mantis is close though because my shoulders keep the restraint from going down far enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
