Anyone Ridden Hulk with a Splint or Cast

[PrincessWithABlaster]

Has anyone ridden Hulk with a wrist splint or cast? My DD just got turned away from it because she can't bend her wrist in the splint. The rider safety and accessability page is confusing. First it says that people will be restricted from the Hulk with arm and leg casts. Then it goes on to say that they have to fit in the ride vehicle. I can't imagine a splint wouldn't fit in the ride vehicle and with the restraints. Anyone have experience with this? I don't know if the page just isn't as detailed as it should be or if different TMs have different interpretations.

Since you are in the parks, check with guest service if policy is extended for wrist casts/splints

We just went back and the sign does specifically say no casts so she's out of luck again this year (too short by 1/4 inch last year). This ride is her impossible dream.

Would buying her a butter beer make her feel better and take the sting of not being allowed on the ride?

Possibly this will take a cauldron cake or Florian Fortesques.

Yeah, Hulk is a rough one. No casts.

Second to last time we were there it was being renovated. Next time my son was in a cast, and it was shoulder to wrist with a 90 degree bend at the elbow, so it wouldn’t have fit nor would it have been possible to hide it.

(I night have the order opposite there; the point is that it’s my son’s fave and he hasn’t been able to ride it in ages)

Plus, if she’s had surgery or a break she doesn’t want to go on that ride. It’s so jolty that it could be painful. And if there’s a ride stop requiring evacuation, she couldn’t really help herself.
