Space Mountain

[supergirl04]

My family and are WDW vets. I am not a rollercoaster rider. I have space mountain at MK a few times, but never Everest or rock and rollercoaster. I’ve done slinky dog once only, even though everyone says it’s just like 7 dwarfs which I can ride multiple times. I just do not like big drops.

My question is how different is Disneyland’s space mountain? I know the ride cars are different. Are there more drops? Is it faster? More intense?

It’s quite equal between both parks. However one notable difference is that you’ll be seated 2 to a row… so if you do have a guest with you that’s a bit scared and wants to hang on to someone, you sure can! Can’t do that on Magic Kingdom’s Space Mountain!

If you can deal with Disney World's Space Mountain, I think you'll be fine with Disneyland's. While Disneyland's version technically goes a few MPH faster, the ride is much smoother with far less jerkiness.

At Disney World, I feel like my joints are rattling inside of me throughout the ride, and I physically feel much better riding the Disneyland version.

MK space mountain is more like Disneylands Matterhorn. It’s bumpy and jerky. Disneylands space mountain is super smooth. There is one small drop, I think if you’ve been on MKs space mountain you could handle Disneylands. Have a fun trip!!

It's way way way better, after 3 DL trips , then going back to MK....we were shocked how bad MK version is compared to DL.....

The two seater cars makes it much more fun, comfortable and smooth.
