    Default Crush & Gusher Question

    This will be our first trip to the WDW water parks so I am looking at pictures and info online and trying to anticipate what it will be like. My specific question is about the Crush and Gusher--- they have three person rafts, but we will be a family of 4. Can we do two people per raft... or will we be sitting 3 in one, one in another raft?? Thanks for your help... and if you have any other ideas or suggestions, they would be appreciated, too!!

    I think they have two person rafts and three person rafts. I went with my BFF some years ago and we went together on one. Only, since she is considerably smaller than I am, I was seated in the back with my butt crashing down on some of the bumps and turns!

    Motto of the story is, make sure you distribute weight as evenly as possible.

    Be sure your butt is slightly elevated because when you hit the dips you can come down alittle hard. We love this water coaster.

    Crush & Cusher allows 2 or 3 riders only, so you would not be able to do the 3 + 1 situation you described.

    You would take 2 - 2 person rafts up with you and ride 2 + 2......

    Great ride! All 3 runs!

    There is one chute that you can't ride as a single but there is at least one of the other two that you can. I don't remember the names of each chute so can't tell you which is which.

    That's not true. I ride by myself all the time, on 2 of the slides (one does require multiple riders).

    Just an FYI, when we were there last week, there were no more 3 person rafts, only 2.
