Heading to Disney 2/28/12

Even though there's no longer an ESPN Weekend, we are looking forward to our newest Disney vacation in 7 short weeks.

Now that I'm a Timeshare owner, we will be staying at the Boardwalk Resort so I'll be asking several questions about that as well in another section of INTERCOT.

I'm 6'4 and skipped Space Mountain everytime I go to Disney because I'm afraid I won't fit yet the cars look big enough in the front. I did ride Aerosmith, BTMRR and they weren't a problem, also EE and Dinosaur in Animal Kingdom without a problem, but I've been told Space Mountain is not accessible. Anyone comment specifically about this ride?

My SIL is your height at least and he rides space
mountain every time, you may even see him there we will be there Feb. 3

Our son in law is 6'5" and well over 200#. He rides Space Mtn. I haven't heard that he has any difficulties. He might have to kind of slide his feet and legs in as he sits down. Kind of shoe horn in. :D

I wouldn't sit in the front seat. The second and third seats have room for you to slide your legs down the side. The front seat of each car doesn't.

I'm also 6'4" and have little issue riding...

On a side note astro orbiters is the worst I've been on for accommodating taller people

And since the refurb on Space Mt., the leg space issue really improved. Sounds like you will have no issues! :thumbsup:

Any taller people ever ride Splash Mountain? Its another ride I always bypass since it looks so tight.

My dad is 6'6" 300lbs and rides every ride at Disney. We go almost every year & have been for the past decade. Some rides are more comfortable than others, but he never misses splash mtn, and Space mtn & EE are his favorite rides. Go for it!

Splash has plenty of leg room... I really can't think of any ride except astro orbiters that I've had trouble fitting in. (I did manage to squeeze in there but was extremely uncomfortable). I've even rode the barnstormer...

My father rides it....very tall. No issues.

Thanks again, everyone. EE was absolutely no problem for me. The only one I found a bit tight was IT'S A SMALL WORLD (and considering the theme, it would make sense why).

Splash Mountain, here I come! Yahoo!
