Rides that are okay for motion sickness

One of our group gets motion sickness pretty easily (has to ride in the front seat of the car, etc.). I have read threads on treating motion sickness, but I was actually wondering what rides at both parks would probably be okay for him. I'm thinking MIB is probably the most he could handle. We haven't been to US/IofA for four years so my memory of the rides is a little foggy. I'd appreciate a list of recommendations. Thanks.
 
I don't know how much this will help....I get motion sickness very easily, too. Even if I'm sitting in the front seat of the car, I can't look down to tie my shoes or anything like that. I have only been to US/IOA one time, and we didn't ride the Hulk or Dueling Dragons (Mummy wasn't open), but NONE of the rides made me sick except Back to the Future. The Cat in the Hat does have a little spin to it, but if I'm not mistaken you can have them lock the seat so that it won't move on that ride. Spider-Man was awesome, and I'm sure Mummy will be fine. There was some other ride that was totally spinny, but that was obvious. I thought all of the rides were great because I didn't get sick.

:faint: Just stay away from BTTF!!

I recently had my doctor prescribe some behind-the-ear patches for me though, just in case, since I'm planning on riding the Hulk this year. These aren't supposed to make you sleepy and they last for three days.
 
I also get motion sick easily. I can not do Storm Acceletron due to the spinning and Back to the future kills me. I can do Hulk, Dueling dragons, and coasters as long as I pace myself and do not do them over and over. I am good for one time on Jimmy Nuetron, but could not ride it twice in a row. I can do Spidey two to three times in a row, but then feel queasy. I can do MIB a few times over and can do Cat in the hat two to three times before needing a break. Rides such as Jurassic park, Dudley Doright, and Popeye do not affect me at all. The mummy did not make me ill either. The only rides I would avoid are BTTF and Storm and would try everything else, but make sure he/she paces themselves and doesn't do too many in a row. We like to mix in a show or kids ride between fast motion rides, primarily for me to recoup.
