PLEASE NOTE: My calves are about 17.5 inches (45cm) around. And for me it was a tight fit but I made it. ALSO! I fit in the test seat but CHOSE to ride in the bucket seat because we were only allowed one ride. I wanted to show you all how the bucket seat worked.
Only one ride?! That’s lame. I saw others on multiple rides. I demand justice for you!
@@doc2w534 indeed! 😉 Others rode multiple times! Of course many were non castmembers!🤔 So, not sure how this truly worked!
This is so good of you to share. I plan to share it with my larger calf Disney friends.
Thank you so much Adrian!!! I needed this!
Very useful to know! I have 20 inch calves so no way is it going to work for me :(
I watched both Tim Tracker and Paging Mr. Morrow's videos for Tron. Tim Tracker is 6'2" and 220lbs. He said it was tight for his legs because of the angle and was concerned for anyone taller than him because it would be hard to get their legs in the ride. Paging Mr. Morrow was not able to ride the first time, but went back to the test seat and found a hack. If he pushed his legs all the way against the back of the leg area he was able to get the leg bar to lock. Thanks for posting. I know everyone is very happy that Tron is going to open, but like Flights of Passage it is all going to come down to calf and leg size.
My first thought was this Mr. Morrow hack!
Paging Mr.Morrow also had issues with that bar pressing on legs so I wouldn't say dont do it if it hurts you in a locked position.jyst because you forced yourself into it doesn't mean it will be pleasurable experience .
I am so grateful to you! You are so open with things that are so hard to discuss. Thank you! ❤️
When I used the test seat at D23, I definitely didn’t fit when I had shorts on since the bar got stuck on my calves. But when I came back later in pants, the fabric let the bar slip right into place with a tiny bit of force. So that may be the answer for a lot of y’all
Also I will be there opening day flying from the PNW so I WILL find a way to fit lol. TRON is to me what Star Wars is for many other nerds, so like Jurassic park, Life will find a way
People need to just lose weight
@@graffiti.777 A. That's harder than you think, and B this is more about your legs than your torso. There are apparently rundisney people that can't fit on this
@@rct3isepic if everyone was healthy and worked out, this would never be a problem. These rides can't accommodate fat people and normal people including children
@@graffiti.777 No, this is not true. Marathon runners and muscled men are having trouble fitting on it because they have larger calves due to working out.
Thank you for putting yourself out there like this! You did the same for me on Hagrid's and I am still a bit teary eyed thinking about the confidence you gave me heading to the park, instead of stressing and worrying. I loved your efforts to show us the test seat and everything. I am watching both your and Paging Mr Morrow's vids! Thank you, Thank you!
I swear you’ve given me a boost of confidence 😂 I am terrified
Nothing to be scared of at all! :)
Wow. I'm so happy someone made a video like this. I saw Tim's video yesterday and didn't even realize they had a bucket seat. As a large dude, I dread theme parks for this very reason. There's almost nothing I can ride at King's Island. When I was at Disney in 2017, I only had one issue with the Avatar ride and the cast member was so sweet about it and gave us extra fast passes. It really feels like Disney tries to be as inclusive as possible. Thank you for sharing this information!
Yes Avatar is another calf issue!
Just rode Tron this week. I just barely couldn’t make the calf bar work, but TBH I loved the experience from the bucket seat and my husband, who has no problem with the cycle seats, rode it in the back with me the second time and saw things he missed from earlier seats. Still absolutely fun from the bucket seats!
Thank you for showing this! It's extremely helpful! I'm not concerned about fitting......it's the overall position that is a problem for me. I have a chronic illness and have had 14 abdominal surgeries straight down my front. There is no way I could lean up against the bike, putting weight on my abdominal muscles. I'd end up back in the hospital. So, the accessible seating would be my choice.
Not all handicaps are visible. 😉
It reminds me of flight of passage. My calves were the issue too. But they should have an Ada seat for that like tron did.
Great work Adrian! A tip I have (based on my experiences in Shanghai), is to wear pants or have some sort of fabric. It helps to be able to slide your leg slightly if it doesn't fit immediately (less of friction between bar-fabric vs bar-sweaty leg! During day at Shanghai I was in shorts and my legs were so tight in there, I was losing circulation in my feet. But later that day I had to switch into jeans (chilly night) and it was so much more comfortable!
This content is so important and so appreciated! This is the reason I started following you! I love all your Disney content but these ride seat reviews help me (as a plus size person) so so much when im preparing for a trip. For reference could you measure your calf width at the widest part and share so I can compare? If you’re comfortable of course. Thank you so so much for this in-depth review! When you were doing the test seat you thought you might be able to ride the cycle, did you try when you got up there or did you just decide to the the bucket one? Thanks again!!
We only got one chance to ride that night so I decided to ride in the bucket seat to show off how it looks and the restraints rather than ignoring it like everyone else has. Hopefully I can ride in the bike again soon. I’ll pin a comment later tonight of my calve size once I’m home from my full time job :)
@@ThemeParkExpress thank you SO much! I SO appreciate you!
The ADA seat looks great for another group of people. My mum had both her knees replaced and now can't kneel or bend her knees at a right angle or tighter, so she would never get on the bike seat, regardless of size, but the leg room in those bucket seats means this might be a rollercoaster she can actually get on and enjoy!
Same thought for my wife. One knee replaced and the other needs it. Flight of Passage was rough for her.
With the vast number of people who would need the ADA seat, I wonder if they'll split the line up into two separate groups with that "ADA line" getting a LOT longer and potentially have huge waits. (no pun)
The sequel we have been waiting for! I have been watching since your first Tron test seat video. Thank you for all you do!!!
I’m going on Saturday to ride and I’m super nervous about my calves. They are bigger than yours so hopefully I fit!! I’m so thankful they have a test seat to save me the embarrassment at the actual station.
Yes please try the test seat! So many people are just assuming they fit and are shocked at the station
I could, but I’m gonna go live my best fat sweaty life!! 🖕🏻
As a part of the big boy club, your channel is a life saver as I plan my trip to Florida this summer. Thanks!
Thank you for this video. Nate from paging Mr Morrow had issues, too. Both of you are very informative. I really wish Disney would have one train with the regular seats so pooh sized people wouldn't have to wait so long to ride😊
He gave a good tip of placing your foot flat against the foot panel at the back. He said that freed up some room, so take a look at his video, for sure!
Thanks for showing this! I hold the majority of my weight on my legs so this is a real concern for me. I'm coming in May and hopefully I can work off enough that I fit on the ride vehicle. It's been 7 years since I've been to Florida and I really don't want to miss Tron!
Thank you SO much Adrian for covering this, AND for sharing your calf size. I’ll have to test the seat with my calves. I imagine a lot of RunDisney runners may struggle with this one!
My big hips keep me from fitting in most coasters, but I'm determined for my crackin' to fit on kraken. I'm at 280 now, and hoping to hit 250 by memorial day
I was worried about this one, being overweight, an ice skater (xxl calves), and having knee issues.
Can confirm adjusting your leg position and wearing trousers helps make it work (thanks guys!)
Surprisingly, I found this one more comfortable on my knees than some ’normal’ rollercoasters, so it’s worth trying the test seats for that too.
And for the fellow ladies out there: best wear a high-necked top for this one 😅
Thank you so much! As someone with giant calves and who gets cramps in my calves very easily, I think I would be more comfortable in the bucket seat. I'll give the test seat a shot when I make it to Magic Kingdom, but I'm mentally prepared to do the bucket seat ;)
My older brother is massively large 🦣 over 400lbs and above 6ft tall but he is very motivated of your videos and on a weight loss journey and inspired from watching videos of yours, he just became an annual Disney pass holder
We are both going to Typhoon Lagoon this weekend hopefully he is eligible for going on any slide at the park
He recently lost about 35lbs in 2 months but he is still moving forward to losing that weight of his life!
Thank you for being an Awesomest inspiration for plus size fans!
Yeah! Best Tron video yet! You are the only one to show the regular/“bucket” seats!
Even if I fit in the "bike" seat I would want to use the bucket seat. That bike seat looks like the most uncomfortable ride position ever. What were they thinking? 😎
Best and most informative video I've seen on this, thank you! :)
Gonna be a long line for that ADA row.
Yup. I just dont see why they need to stable calves in. And why they couldn't have used a nicer padded thing to hold calves in. Poor design imo
I think the bucket seat is a good idea for people who has back, leg issues and disabled people, at least they accommodated the people experience of the ride
as I see and have noticed that placing your foot is the most important thing. if you put your foot down properly, your calf will fall into the clamp more easily. So basically put your foot against the rear wheel ln (90 degrees).
As a result, your entire lower leg falls down better and you can get in better.
I cried watching this because you are so brave and so helpful. Thank you for being so kind.
Thank you for the great video! I'm going in January & was worried about if I would be able to fit. Now I know not to stress about it. And thanks for showing how nice the bucket seats are. My mom can't lift her leg high enough to get on the bike & was worried she wouldn't be able to fit in the bucket seat
Thanks for the review video! I'm going on the 16th, fingers crossed I can sit in the normal seats if not last row it is haha
The Tron soundtrack is one of my favorites. I’m happy to hear the music plying at the ride.
Thanks to you I could tell my husband the good news that he can actually go on in this ride despite his bad knees. We didn't know that there are actually knee and fat friendly seats. 🙌
he fits perfectly
Thanks for posting! Your video was the most informative I have seen on fitting in the seat. After being in Marching band for 3 years, my calves were never the same. I can't wait to see your measurements! The hubby and I LOVE your videos!
Thanks so much. Nice to see this follow-up to the video from years ago. I saw Paging Mr. Morrow as he headed up to his preview yesterday. His video suggested pushing your feet flat against the rear wheel. Which seems to be a good idea. You both are under 6 ft. I’m 6’1” with big belly, thighs, and calves and sitting at 320 lbs. I don’t know if the leg suggestion will work with my legs probably being longer. Hope to try soon at passholder previews.
Great video.. thanks for all the information.. looks like Disney attendance will increase this year..😉
I am disabled with severe arthritis which means I am completely unable to ride straddle on anything or bend my knees and kneel on them. Thank you so much for this video of the bucket seat. It means this is a ride I will be able to do with no problems. The only question I have is if the side lifts up for a side transfer. You know for those who are wheelchair-bound and are unable to take a step. They would slide from wheelchair seat into vehicle and then pivot into place. If that happens, I can probably get on and off this thing without any assistance.
The downside of course is that the demand on these ADA seats will be much higher because it accommodates not just the disabled but the able-bodied and large. It's something you get used to. Just have to a lot more time to ride this thing.
You are always so helpful with these videos! I do have chunky calves so this makes me a little sad but always gotta give it a try.
Okay I am definitely not a thrill ride person and I’ve been on roller coasters and gotten sick. But I came out of this ride crying because it was SOOOOO awesome and sooooo smooth. I would pay for lightening lane without hesitation to ride this whenever I want!
I actually have HUGE calves.. my whole family has large legs- even smaller folks. When I went to Disney I was so nervous about flight of passage. I tried to test seat and they said I should be fine but I would just need a push. Got on the ride and it latched easily. It really varies on body type so the test seats are really great to have!
Thank you SO SO much for making this video! I have been waiting for it!
And one of my favorite things is that you put your calf measurements in the description. Thank you so much.
Maybe they should add more bucket seats 😢 like honestly. Can you imagine the wait time for it once it opens April 4th!
I think they’re discussing adding more
@@ThemeParkExpress that would be amazing
You have nooooo idea how much I appreciate you making this video. This was so friggen helpful!! I went to Universal and the only ride I couldnt fit in was Hagrid's ride, lol. Ironic, no? Anyway, thank you again. Great video!!
This is really helpful. Thank you for being so detailed and thorough!
This right here is exactly with Disney needs to support vloggers in their parks.
Been following you for years and man I continue to enjoy your videos ! You’re the best bro
Awesome information! Thank you so much for this video!!!
Thanks for the video. You saying it's not as intense as guardians makes me want to go on it now. Guardians made me sick but I still liked it lol. This is especially useful for most Americans who are a bit bigger. ;) Thanks for always being kind and putting out great content
Adrian, your test seat videos are GOLD! Great video as always.
I honestly don't get the seat complaints for Tron, Vekoma has built 6 Motorbike coasters around the world now and no one ever complained about the seats there.
I have seen so many, but so many vids right now about this right, and while many of them complain about the position and uncomfroblenss of the vehicle, no one as explain it like this! specially about the metal bar in the leg! I hope disney have noted this on there preperation videos!
Thanks for getting this video out to us! Good and informative
I met you at sea world you were so nice bud love your videos hope to see you again 😊
Just rode this a few days ago and loved it!! The ride went by fast and wasn’t as scary as I thought it would be (I am not a thrill rider usually)! I rode it at night and it was beautiful.
Thank you so much for the information unfortunately I wasn't able to ride. It was a very hot and humid day in Florida and because my legs kept getting stuck on the plastic. I couldn't slide my legs down to the right position and wasn't able to ride the bike. But they do have a cart options with a lap bar.
I'm 5'8" 286lbs
The bucket seat looks way more comfortable than the bike. I have back issues so leaning forward would be a problem. So next time I go to disney bucket seat it is :)
Thanks for these videos. Your Universal test seat videos gave me confidence to make my first trip to Universal.
I'm 6ft 1. About mid way through last year, I was just shy of 350lbs. I made an effort to change some lifestyle habits and now I'm down to about 310. I wonder if I'll fit on this. If not, I'm guessing I should be able to after I get below 300..
Congrats on your weight loss! Wish I could say the same😊
Keep up the weight loos grind. I'm down 13 pounds already and counting.
If you move your foot back further towards the back wheel you might have a more comfy fit as the upper part of your calve will be less bulky
LOVE THIS! I've always wanted to try the new TRON ride, but was worried about my size. Thank you for giving us an explainer that shows the bar and cubby. You're awesome!
I wonder if you had flipped your feet (pointed your toes) would it have given you even a bit more give on your calf muscle. Paging Mr Morrow did that and it seemed to help.
I didn’t help me much. It actually made it more uncomfortable for me
Nate at Paging Mr Morrow (PMM) had to place his feet vertical/bottom against the back to position the back of the leg to receive the bar.
Great content, as always! Glad you got to enjoy the ride.
Nice bro!! Glad you got to ride it!
Did you only ride in the bucket seat or did you also ride in the light cycle seat? Or did you just get the one ride and opt for the bucket?
Lastly, was there any sort of camera guidelines in regards to filming on the ride? I know there’s been some confusion in that regard!
As always, good to see you doing well, my friend!
We only got one ride so I opted for the bucket to show it off for the video. When we rode they were only allowing go pros on chest mounts.
@@ThemeParkExpress okay! That’s what I’ve been seeing as well! Thanks bud! Let’s go film a vid sometime!! A big and tall duo! Ha ha
I'm 5'5 230-240lbs and those Disney rides are tight😵💫
Great Video. Just earned a subscription. I am an older, bigger fellow and I am just resigned to the fact that I will be riding the in the bucket seats, but that's what I love about Disney, they at least accommodate me in some way.
Thank you for sharing! I’m a plus size and sears always a make me uneasy. One cast member said (on paging morrow) that the test seat was a little smaller? Thanks again.
My husband is not a roller coster person but I've gotten him used to riding flight of the hippogriff. I'm hoping this one will be mild enough for him to enjoy as well
Nate from Paging with Mr Marrow also had bad bruises on the back of his legs after the ride from the bars being tight.
Yay!! It’s Adrian! I’m glad that you were able to ride! I am surprised that you could not ride multiple times when others were able to! Notwithstanding, I am so happy to see your awesome video!🥳🎉
great video man.
Thank you so much for this review! I have a preview on Sunday and from what I've heard, the bike puts stress on your knees, so I'm not even going to try the bike at this time. But thanks for the information on the "bucket seat." Keep up the awesome info and thanks for sharing!
Shoutout to Coda's "Whistle, whistle." 🤣🤣
Love the Tron glasses! You did a great job providing the information those who need it. I don’t but for those who do you did a wonderful and respectful job
I love how you used the OST from Dream Drop Distance! True Kingdom Hearts fan.
I have a strong feeling that, before year's end, half, if not all, of the Tron trains will have a traditional coaster car on the back. Right now, they have a single train with a single classic car. That carriage requires a separate breakaway line, and I foresee lots of queue jamming due to it being the only option for a decent number of people.
We agree!
Very good video. Thank you for taking the time to dedicate a video to this as many of us really get anxious about things like fitting on rides. Appreciate it x
I'm glad you shared that even smaller people was denied to get on the light cycle that way people can see that it's not just targeted at 1 Size ya know its not so much the upper body weight its more so the lower body weight..
Thank you so much for this - I know it can’t be easy, but as someone who is more Pooh shaped I really really appreciate it! 💙
Thank you for putting yourself out there for the rest of us.
I’m an average sized person but this seat looks insanely uncomfortable.
Great video!! Thank you
The handicap seat should be for those who have a disability and can’t physically mount the ride vehicle, not people who are overweight
They make the bucket seats to accommodate anybody who cannot ride the light bike, regardless of the reason. Also, you don’t necessarily have to be overweight to not to fit on this ride. Very muscular men with large calves or men that are very tall will also struggle. As mentioned before, the seating for this ride is extremely unique. People that can fit on literally every other ride at Disney might have difficulty with this one. Women that are plus size and carry their weight in their thighs and calves might be turned away while men that are much larger in the middle but thinner in the legs might be accommodated. Making a blanket statement that shames someone without a physical disability for utilizing a seat that will accommodate them is ignorant. Not to mention many people pay to ride this, so they should get to ride.
Thank you for this video. It's so helpful to see the accessible vehicle & test seat! Such great information.
Love these informative videos!! You do a great job! My husband is “juicy” and I hope he is able to enjoy this ride 😊 “whistle whistle” 😂😂😂 Gotta love Koda 😊 xo
also you are extremely helpful and very, very sweet. this helps an incredible amount.
I really appreciate these videos. My waist us right at 54-56 inch depending on how I suck it in and 300lbs even lol. Is that dimension doable for these rides? I’ve been comparing myself to you. Going to SeaWorld end of December.
Extremely helpful!! My calves are huge too!
stop bragging
So it looks like guests will have to straddle over 2 seats to get to the second seat for the "regular" ones, might be an issue for those with dresses, etc.
EDIT: I looked at another video and it appears for the "regular" bike vehicles, one person walks around to the other side as there's enough of room in between, then hops on. So that's good
Great video! Thanks for the tips!
No way am I fitting on the regular seat at 6’9”. But it’s nice that there are bucket seats as well. Thanks for the video!
Why didn't disney test for bigger people or fluffy people I know I would've off I will fit but would've suck if I would of been in the bigger x size thank you for your experience for bigger person you are helping everyone in your experience.
The real magic is getting to share the beautiful view from Speedway Bridge with all the guests now!
i brought this to a cast member when they had the test units infront of SM in 2019, i was told they were a 1:1 of the China ride and where not adjusted for larger skeletal frames, the distance from the ankle to the knee and the knee to the him is different on non asians, my wife being 5'4'' and my daughter being 4'11'' with shorter legs fit a lot better, my feet where pushed up under the back tire so to speak for me to fit, it was the most uncomfortable 45 secs i've had on a ride
A great Disney video secretly disguised as a weight-loss video... if you wanna fit on that ride in comfort... you know what to do!
I love that Disney is fat guy friendly
So if someone in your party chooses to ride the bucket seat and they wait in the other line, does the other people in your group wait with you and then they can ride the bike ? For you’re in the same group still?
As soon as I saw the test seat I knew people were going to be trying to sit on that thing the wrong way. Get your weight on your knees and flatten your feet out so that they are elongated toe away from knee. Try it as you sit at home right now, your calf muscle will naturally elongate flattening it out.
