V-Coaster and Skinny people

[Queen2PrincessG]

My daughter is very tiny currently 5 feet tall 70lbs and lucky for me, adventurous as all get out. Mom here is anxious about, you know her slipping out! Cause who builds a coaster that goes upside down without an overhead harness! LOL Yes, I understand physics. But she’s sooo tiny! Any parents with a similar slim kiddo who’s ridden willing to share/calm me down. TIA

The apparatus that holds you into your seat is actually quite large & really locks the whole lower half of your body down very firmly.

I completely understand where you're coming from though as a mom & that is pretty slender. Hopefully some other folks with comparably sized kids will chime in.

Haven’t done that one yet but have been doing the major coasters with my skinny kiddo at Cedar Point for years. Their coasters do lap harnesses and I’ve not been worried.

It isn’t an issue. I too live by cedar point and your kid won’t fall out. Think about it her whole legs and feet would have to slide completely out of it to fall out. It isn’t a bar holding you in. It is basically a clamp over and between your legs. (Usually between your legs - either the bar or the seat or both. )

I have one that is not quite five feet tall, but 72 pounds. No problems on velocicoaster!

Won't be a problem. Rode it earlier today, and it locks you in. Lots of smaller kids riding.

My 9 year old son rode it multiple times over the weekend and was completely fine. He is about 56 inches and I have no idea how much he weighs but is super skinny.

Thank you! Feeling a bit better.
