Ride Question - Quick Drops and Acceleration

[jammyjam25]

Agreeing with others that I find Goofy's to be extremely jerky around the corners and lots of sudden stops! I enjoy it but if you're trying to avoid those things it may not be in the cards.

Goofy is super jerky. I actually think it is one of the roughest rides in the park and I am always almost sure we are going to go over the side! Based on when your trip is, I wouldn't be surprised if you didn't have any restrictions at Disney minus maybe TOT and CS unless you are prone to retinal detachment in the future.

Yeah, that's the thing. I am at a higher risk for a retinal detachment since I've already had one. Doesn't mean that it'll happen, but just higher than someone who hasn't had one.

I appreciate the descriptions of the rides...even things like "jerky", "swooping turns", "jolts", drops..they describe the rides well, which I can use when discussing with my eye specialist.

I started thinking about it, and Tower of Terror may not actually be subject to a lot of extreme directional changes. You go back, then climb, then drop, then climb again, etc. It may not be great for your retinal issue, but it's not a roller coaster that may force turns in the opposite direction.

I think the sudden drop would be a problem. Although I would love the theming of Tower of Terror, my stomach wouldn't (never mind about my eyes), so this isn't one I mind missing.
