What are your Best Strategies NOT to bang ears on RnRC bars?

[erinch]

My problem with RnRC is how it bangs my ears and bounces my head back and forth. I’ve tried “supergluing “ the back of my head to the seat back, or super gluing one side of head to one bar. Anyone else have a great strategic, besides duct taping padding ?

OMG I’m so here for a solution to this.

Been doing this on RnR for years.

Put your arms up and grip near the top of the shoulder restraints with your forearms firm against those restraints. This will tighten your shoulders and limit the side to side motion of your head.

This is why I don’t do RNR any more. The banging gives me a headache & all the tricks to stop the banging suck all the fun out of the ride. Now my shoulders hurt from tensing.

After the launch is over (during the launch it will be glued back of course), it is actually easier if you keep your head OFF of the back of the headrest. Keep it floating so that it doesn't hit anything

Easier said than done.

The bumping is far worse the closer to the back you get, so I ask to be "near the front."

 

[Kooks and Bay Bay]

Ask to sit near the front.
And just "go with it".
I find the more tense I am the harder my ears end up hitting.
