Vu Height Question

Talk about anything that has to do with Six Flags Great America and Hurricane Harbor here.
Postby SFGAMkid on June 16th, 2004, 2:06 pm
Has the park been checking riders height for vu? My friends and I are going to the park in a few days, and two of my friends are close to the printed maxium height mark of 6' 4".

Or do they really not check height?

Yes, they have been checking height, I'm suprise that Aero737 hasn't been checked yet, he's about 1" or so under.

They check for your own personal safety, and they are liable if something happens and your riding when you shouldn't be.

They do. I've once tried to go on it being 6'6". They didn't let me on it

The height limits are painted on the airgates so if someone looks too tall, they can measure them exactly.

I was there for CoasterbuzzCon this year and I was fine, I am 6'4, also one of my brother's friends was riding too and he is a little taller than me and he was able to ride, like Aero said, there is a color chart right before you get into the area to load so you can check there.
