homestar92 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 So on Monday, my dad is going with me to Cedar Point and from time to time his knees act up. He doesn't mind any coasters (He thought Dragster looked fun) but he doesn't want to ride any that might bother his knees. Obviously this rules out Mantis. I can't think of any others that may be hard on the knees. In fact, the only reason I can think of that a coaster would be (besides standup coasters) is that it has very small trains. Are there any rides that he should avoid (other than Mantis) in order to avoid upsetting his knees? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CedarPointer Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Wildcat. Iron Dragon and Corkscrew have different amounts of leg room depending on the row, so watch out for that. Edit: Forgot that Wildcat wasn't there anymore... move along! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jr for Birdy Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 The Cedar Creek Minetrain has VERY small trains. Keep him far away my friend! My legs were cursing me the entire ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he'll have to worry about Wildcat. It was removed before last year's opening day. Blue Streak may be a bit tight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire-Beast-OF FEAR Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Coming from someone who has long legs I always found that most early 2000's Intamin sit-down coasters have been a little snug to be in. So Millennium Force and Top Thrill Dragster should be fine just maybe a little tight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homestar92 Posted May 10, 2013 Author Share Posted May 10, 2013 Wildcat. Iron Dragon and Corkscrew have different amounts of leg room depending on the row, so watch out for that. Edit: Forgot that Wildcat wasn't there anymore... move along! I'm going to assume Corkscrew and Iron Dragon use the same trains as Vortex and Flight Deck, respectively? If so, no worries, I ALWAYS ride either 5-1 or 1-1 on Arrows with that style trains. Also, I'm spending two days in the park, and he is only spending one, so I have Tuesday to ride everything he can't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCrypt Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Iron Dragon and Corkscrew will have extra legroom at the front seat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
