First time. I have a 9 yr old who hits right at 54. Any of the rides he was going to bounce around in or float in the harness when upside down, we should be wary of of? He's ridden other coasters before but just being a paranoid parent.

It depends on his thrill level. Any of the rides will not allow him on if he is not big enough to be safe.

Yeah they have all kinds of rides and yes some of the rides a harnessed some of the rides just have a seatbelt buckle they have a ride that is called The flume and it's a water ride Love 💗

I'm sure someone has posted videos of the rides. Looking at harnesses especially, is the kid slim or heavy? They're one size fits all(mostly adults), so a slim child may get jostled and hurt. Make sure it's a full body harness, not a lousy seat belt, worse, a chain.

They will be fine. If they are too short them won't be allowed to get on. All the rides are great lines not so much.

The rides there are awesome I will say but I'm 43 and they still scared me. The Tigirs I think was the name I thought I was gonna fall out of the rest of them I felt safe in no problem. That ride goes 40mph so I dont suggest that ride for ur child plus id go during the day since its 1st so ur child can see n not get scared. That 1 ride was the only ride I was scared to fall out of the rest I felt safe in so I'd take my child jus wouldn't ride that 1 ride is all. If u go hope u have a blast like I did. Happy Halloween

Thank you for all of the responses 😊 Edit: he rode all of them multiple times and had a blast! He lives to tell the tale and has no injuries.

All of them should be safe for him. Brought my pretty slim 56in baby brother and he loved it and felt pretty safe and was loving every ride they let him on (there were a few that were having mechanical issues when we visited) but he also loves thrills and coasters and stuff. So I'd say it's safe but as his parent it's up to you ultimately

The height requirements are posted at each roller coaster ride. Height requirements varies from ride to ride. My 9 yr old could ride Cobra's Curse, Scorpion, and River Rapids. The train is fun too.

We went the other day I have a 12 year old, 9 year old, and twins that are 3. My 9 year was able to go on all rides. If there was something she didn't want to go on she didn't go. But she wanted to try them all as long as she was allowed on. Which she was =]

I'm around that size aswell and there are two rides that face you down were his back isn't going to touch the seat for a small period. Those rides are sheikra and falcons fury. Otherwise everything else is fine.
