I feel like you're thrill seekers, like I am.
Oh, definitely. - Yes.
Okay, yes. I mean, I know that for a fact. - Love the thrill rides.
So speaking of thrills, we have to
we have to talk about this brand new attraction right behind us.
So we have a new attraction here at Magic Kingdom Park,
and it’s called, TRON Lightcycle / Run presented by Enterprise.
Yes. - Alright, listen
we got to experience it all together today.
Which is so fun. - Yes, so much fun.
And we have a lot to talk about. Yeah?
Yeah. - Yes.
Alright, let's talk about what was it like entering the grid?
It was phenomenal. - Yeah.
It was better than I expected.
And I had high expectations, you know? - Yeah.
We've been waiting for this attraction to open,
and it was so exciting and it was just everything I wanted it to be.
Yeah, I mean, I'm a huge roller coaster fan and this is right in my wheelhouse.
You really just get immersed in TRON Legacy, the TRON movies.
You just enter the grid, you're racing against Team Orange
and trying to go through those eight energy grids.
It really is just such an awesome experience
and you're just immersed in the entire world of TRON.
Let's start with like an overview.
So let's pretend right from the beginning, just how we were walking up.
What's one of the first things that we do?
I think the lockers were
one of the first things that we experienced. - Lockers.
Right? - Yeah, I mean, I think we're all kind of
used to most Walt Disney World attractions
where you can go ahead and bring your stuff along with you,
but you, you know, this is a little bit different.
Yeah, it was.
Yeah. - But it really is seamless.
You know, you just,
once you get there, the cast members will tell you
what section you need to go to.
It's the most beautiful locker room you've ever seen.
Yes it is.
I swim every day, the locker room I use is nowhere near that beautiful.
But all of the lockers that are available are all lit up for you.
So you can just go up to the one that you want.
You can either use your MagicBand, MagicBand+,
if you don't have one, they'll give you a card.
Disney Magic Mobile on your phone won't work with it,
but the MagicBand and the card will. - Okay.
You just tap it, it opens up for you.
And anything bigger than a cell phone, or a wallet does need to go in there.
Okay.
And then you close it.
The best part is
if you forget something like my friend Elaine did, she forgot her Minnie ears.
She just tapped again and was able to just put that in and close it.
You don't even have to remember what locker you actually had.
- Okay.
Because once you get off the attraction, you can just scan
your MagicBand on the screen. It will tell you what locker you had.
You can go right to it, open it up and you're all set.
And if you don't feel comfortable leaving your cell phone in the locker,
there is a compartment right there on the front of the bike.
That's can store little things, - Right.
little things like a cell phone - Right.
that you can just put right in there.
And you don't have to leave it in your locker.
Yeah, perfect.
Especially if you get that card too. - Yes.
You can hold the card and you can just get it on your way out.
Yep, absolutely. - Yeah.
Alright, let's talk a little bit more about the actual ride
and how everybody actually sits in the ride.
I know there are a couple of options. - Right.
And there's a different way to actually enter the grid and sit down for the ride.
Let's talk a little bit more about that.
Yes, it's a really unique ride system.
So when you are actually on the attraction,
it's like you are indeed riding one of these Lightcycles
and you know,
if you want to check it out beforehand, there is a test seat in the queue
that you can check this out, make sure that it's comfortable for you
because what you're going to be doing is you're going to climb aboard the Lightcycle there,
and you're almost leaning forward like, picture it
if you were like on a motorcycle almost.
Your legs will kind of be braced there.
There's a place for you to put your legs.
Then you're going to reach forward and pull down on the handlebars.
And that actually also
pushes the seat back up towards you - The little back part, yeah.
that secures you in there so that you can comfortably ride.
You're not going anywhere there.
But there's some other options because you know
where that might not work for everybody.
So definitely recommend trying the test seat out on your way into the attraction.
And you know, if it's not right for you, there are some other options, too.
