October 9, 201411 yr Does anyone know if there is a maximum height on this ride? I am 6'3" and I've been thinking about trying this ride, but I worry that I am simply too tall to ride. In lieu of embarrassment, I chicken out trying it when I'm in the park. I tried The Bat at Lagoon (in Utah) back in 2010 and I fit just fine, and they are similar rides. Any help would be appreciated.
October 9, 201411 yr Max height is 6'6, you are good to go! Unless it changed this year, it's shorter than that.
October 9, 201411 yr Max height is 6'6, you are good to go! Unless it changed this year, it's shorter than that. Yes. Last I checked, it was 76 inches, which is 6' 4".
October 9, 201411 yr The website may be correct. In years past, Drop Tower had the same height maximum as Flying Ace Aerial Chase.
October 9, 201411 yr Author Ah, I barely squished into Drop Tower. Sounds like I can make it work though. Might give it a shot. Thanks.
October 9, 201411 yr I'm 6'4" and I've rode it a few times without problems. It's actually a really good ride. It would have made a nice addition to the "regular" side of the park, except for it's low capacity.
October 10, 201411 yr It might be tight, but at 6'3", it can be made to work. My dad is that height, and he has ridden Silver Streak at Canada's Wonderland, which is, for all intents and purposes, basically the same ride. Though it was a tight fit. If you are at all worried, you can go up the exit and ask to test one of the seats before spending your time waiting in line. This is true for all rides (or at least all coasters) that lack a test seat.
October 10, 201411 yr I'm between 6'3 and 6'4 and fit on it. the biggest problem I've had is the close proximity of the seats in front. my I can easily kick the seat in front of me without even having to lift my leg very much, but fit alright into my seat itself.
