I got a boarding pass to rise of the resistance this morning! My family has no idea how much I was sweating it - but I did it!!!
No one on my social media knows we’re here so I needed to tell someone!!!!!

YAAAAY! From a fellow Disney park lover.  I'm pretty sure Skellinton will be a little jealous (but also happy for you).

Have fun! I'm not even a big Star Wars fan, but this ride blew me away. Several times during, you could hear the audible gasps of fellow riders in awe. It will have been worth the nail biter to get a boarding pass.

Can't believe no one has said it yet: "May the force be with you!" Enjoy the ride!  A little jealous here... |

Best ride ever!
The RoR anxiety is real...I was more anxious than I was excited on my last trip.

Holy crap that was amazing. I knew what to expect as I’m a coaster coward but really wanted to ride this one. My jaw was on the floor half the time.

That’s awesome!! I haven’t been since Star Wars opened so I want to go back so bad! I don’t even like Star Wars that much but I can not wait for the new hotel to open. I’m gonna spend the big bucks for all of us to go.

Hoping I am lucky like this on Saturday when we are there. I was able to get one when we were in Disneyland last year before the shutdown but I had 3 days to try and get one. With having to plan what park we are going to be at each day we only have Saturday to try.

Congratulations!
We got one on May 14th. I had ridden once before with my DH, but I was with my Dad who hadn't ridden it yet. He's the one that lives a half hour from the park, and this was going to be like his only opportunity because after watching me do the phone, he said there would be no way he could do it that fast. I practiced before our trip, and then the morning of... failed! So we camped out for the 1 PM drop, and got one with an early return time. My stress level dropped so much after that, lol. Unfortunately, our shuttle ride had a bit of a problem so we weren't boarded properly.
Hoping you had a smooth ride experience!

I hope you had a blast!! We did it twice in April and it was amazing! Love that we can try at 7 a.m instead of being in park like previously. THAT was SOOOOO stressful. But funny because the whole park I swear became suddenly quiet while everyone was pressing "join" on their phones. Then shouts of joy or dismay.

Yes!!!!! We got to ride it twice when we were at WDW in December. We loved it and thought it was awesome! We went and also did not tell anyone we were there. It was kind of weird not to post any pictures on social media and I didn't take nearly as many as I usually do. Masks in our pics contributed to that too.

I rode it twice. It is amazing.
You also need to do Flights of Passage - I think that is my new favorite ride.

Our family rode RoR in December 2019. Our oldest son was part of the Disney College Program, so we traveled to Florida to spend Christmas with him. We were at the park 6:00 a.m., waited in line to get into the park and then tried like mad to get a spot. We were able at a 4:00 p.m. spot and it was so amazing. That was one of our longest days ever because we had been at magic Kingdom for the Christmas party until 1:00 a.m. So incredibly worth it though!

Is there an actual drop at the end? I had a friend say no one will go on it with her because there's a drop. I told her I thought it looked like CGI/motion stuff, but not an actual drop.

Yes, it is an actual drop (not CGI - you are in an actual moving vehicle). The first time I rode it I had a hard time taking everything in because I knew the drop was coming somewhere and kept anticipating it. I hate drops. Really really hate drops. However, this one isn’t bad at all. That I got fought to get spots in the queue to ride it again after that is proof that it isn’t bad. I enjoyed the second time much more because I could really pay attention to everything without being afraid of the drop that was coming. |

Wow! Enjoy that!!!
ETA we got to ride the hagrid ride at universal as part of my husbands company. We never would have gotten a virtual pass during regular hours. It was so amazing.
