Rip Ride Rockit - Seating question for larger riders

[HawkeyeThad]

Hey all, I've looked all over the internet, and can't find anything that helps. I haven't been to Universal since Rip Ride Rockit was built, and I'm curious about the restraints for the ride. Have there been issues for larger riders? Just curious as I'd love to ride it when I'm there at the end of August. I've been losing weight, and will continue to do so, but I'm just worried about not being able to ride next month. Thanks in advance!

There is a restraint that you pull down around your waist. You can tighten it as much as you want.

Hi Thad!!

I'm here in Iowa City and I saw your signature pics - GO HAWKEYES!!!

We are going to Universal/IOA/WWoHP August 6 to 9. I can find out and get back to you when we return.

Hey Deb. GO HAWKS! I can't wait for September 4th! This is my 10th year of season tickets. Hoping this season will be as great as everyone is saying.

I'd love it if you'd let me know about the seating after you return from your trip. Thanks in advance!

Hi guys,

Just came back from Universal a few weeks ago. Rip Ride rocket was a family favourite. I saw people of all sizes make it on. There is a test seat outside.
I was amazed at how comfortable the belt was. If you think it's loose raise your hand and the attendant will come and push it down even harder. That worked for me and I felt very safe.
