Tanner Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 I haven't been to the park since they've added it. I'm going tomorrow and I know it's kinda late, but I'm 6'4" and had to cross my legs to get in before the padding, Will I fit now? Do you think I will?

matt3224 Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 I am 6' 3'' and I had a hard time still... I don't know if it was as bad as before but I think it is still hard! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanielRadsgrl Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 I'm only 5'8 but my ad is 6'2 and he has problems with his knees hitting the bars you hold on to. And he doesnt ride it anymore. So no its still hard to get in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Losing Streak Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 I'm 6'3" and I fit better than usual, but my knees were still pushed up pretty far. I wish they'd fix the floor. And it is still so rough, its like there's so much of a gap between the bottom wheels and the track that it just beats you to hell when the top wheel lifts up. I always feel like my spine is compressed when I come off. Anyway. No, you'll probably still have trouble, because they didn't fix the floor.

Beastfreak Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 Yeah, the only thing different is that there is some padding added to the side bars of the lapbar. I doubt any dimensions were changed on these new ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SixFlagsMasta Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 yea. i went last week and they are the same thing except for that passing qhich doesn't do crap for you but take up more of your leg room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKIDelirium Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 the new padding does take care of some of the banging, but these new bars shove down easier: I didn't even hold onto the bar, but it stapled itself in the helix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanner Posted July 1, 2003 Author Share Posted July 1, 2003 the new padding does take care of some of the banging, but these new bars shove down easier: I didn't even hold onto the bar, but it stapled itself in the helix Well I just got home, and well only was brave enough to ride it once. I was all happy about the new padding. I couldn't move my legs an inch once in and was stapled down at the bottom of the first drop. I did notice however that my legs were not in pain. My legs did not hurt the whole time; the pain just moved from my legs to my head. The ride was rough and gave me a horrible headache; but it was alot better than usual.

BoObKiNoS Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 Actually the new lap bars offer more leg room. 1/8 of an inch to be exact Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xx2cansamxX Posted July 7, 2003 Share Posted July 7, 2003 When I went to KI last, I took my 6'2" friend. It took about 3 minutes on FoF to get him in, and on SOB, about 2 minutes. The operator had to come over and say pull your feet back and pull and puch and do all these things. Finally, he got situated, but when we got off, he swore he would never ride it again. (He was crying on it, but he claims it was sweat coming from his eyes?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
