So that's A? I think it's A.

Doors are arranged Left to Right A3, A2, B3/2 (not open), C3, C2 (I rode in C2), and then D3, D2 (not open).

I saw A load before my group went into C.

So i'm thinking A isnt working properly.

More to support my theory..

She goes into theater C, and comes off with rave reviews, mentions "up and down" - and is generally thrilled with the ride.



She also gives a good review of the River Journey but it's not that excited "i just did something that took my breath away" review she gave Flight of Passage.

He also appears to ride in C, (C2 specifically, the same one I rode in - and the happy girl as well) and his group comes out all excited all well.

Deduced it's theater C because you don't walk in to the A doors from that angle and if he was going up to level 3 it'd be stairs and not the neon behind the door.

The way I read it was that it is right at the beginning... as your dragon jumps off the cliff and sinks 20 feet down before it gains loft... that is the "drop" effect.

Which is the part i dont understand - it's not like big giant freefalls, but the system most certainly drops the riders multiple times, as well as climbing rapidly akin to Tower.

WHOA. That's really cool! That makes it stand out far more as a simulator. Hopefully I'll be able to ride it this Fall.

Well when you do, be sure to ride in theater C - that's either where the ride works or they're pumping in hallucinogens.

strange that we would have two entirely different ride accounts....hopefully they will get all the theaters operating correctly in time.

Yeah, it's not often you have such a vastly different experience between riders. I mean personal preference is of course a thing, but it doesn't account for that level of disparity.

I wonder if this is a different 'intensity mode' selection they may be testing, ala Green and Orange teams on Mission: Space?

But they're not telling guests or in any way sorting or marking them for the feedback survey.

They didn't get a press pass. They are Disney Cast members. His whole YouTube account is about being on the Disney College Program.

oh, that explains a bit...

sure they are happy that one of their "students" filmed a snippet of the ride experience after being told not to.
