I'm embarassed to ask but am wondering how the rides at Universal accomodate larger size individuals, it is a huge fear to get there and then have trouble getting belted/locked into a ride.

Hi Samantha41! Welcome to the Passporter boards and the Universal/Islands of Adventure forum

Some attractions at USF are more accomodating for people of larger size than others. Rows 3 and 6 on the Hulk Coaster and Dueling Dragons have special harnesses for larger folks.

Here are a few threads that discuss this topic that might be helpful to you:

Too Big for the Ride

Calling all "bigger" people (Mummy ride)

Pooh sized rides

Hope this helps!

I believe that almost every ride can accomadate larger folks but you may not get to ride in the rows that you will. As of course the harness may feel more uncomfortable at times. But when we went, everyone in our group was okay.

There are a couple rides that have "test seats" out front that you can try before getting in line.

I was reading up on Universal the other day and remember seeing that the coasters have a few seats with a double belt, so you should be o.k.

Have a wonderful time.

They are changing all the seat sizes, shouldn't be a problem at all. Thanks for the sites though.

I should add that in a certain situation at dueling Dragons, only the flame dragon has the big seats, so if you want to ride the ice, you're outta luck
