    Default Large People Riding

    I have been looking for weight restrictions / requirements for universal and haven't really found one.

    There are 3 people in our group that are at least 3x. Will we all be able to ride the universal rides? Especially concerned about Harry Potter.

    Thanks!

    Dueling Dragons and Hulk have two seats per coaster train for larger guests... They also have test seats outside the coasters to see if you need a larger seat or not... If so, just tell the ride attendant and they will direct you to the proper row and tell you which seat...

    As for Potter, the two outside seats of each "enchanted bench" are designed for larger guests... and again, there are test seats outside the attraction... The seats are the "regular" seats... if the lights go all green, you can sit in a "regular" seat... if not, the attendant will inform you that you can ride in the "larger" seat... and again, just tell the attendant at the ride before you sit that you need the outer seats...

    BRODIE: Hey, now, be fair. EVERYONE wants Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.

    On Spiderman, yes, for sure... On the other rides, just test the seats in front of the queue line... I wouldn't be concerned with weight, just more build... If you are very tall, you may have a problem with Potter... If you are massive in the chest, same issue... I weight 300 and fit on Potter just fine in one of the larger seats... I just missed out on a regular seat... I am also 6'0...

    I'm slightly smaller than you guys and could not ride Rip Rockit and Ride... did not try HP. Sadly I carry all my weight in my gut, wasn't blessed with big broad shoulders or chest.

    Just as a heads up.

    I carry mine in my gut too, and I fit fine in all the ride vehicles... Everyone is built different, that's why it is always best to test the seats in the front of the queue first...
