Kali Rapids now offering complimentary lockers

[luv]

so is this mandatory to use or can you still use the thing in the middle for bag storage?

I'm wondering that, too.

I'm sure you can still use the water protector in the middle.

That isn't saying much, Ripsaw is terrible.

Fair point. I also like it better than Kali though, does that count? I like that in Florida the coaster portion is hidden so it's a surprise to first time riders (this isn't the case in San Diego).

OMG, TDO offers something free to guests!!! Let me go check the temperature in Hell.

J/K, I think this is great no matter how long it took.

I like all three (Kali, DDRRF, Atlantis). My main problem with DDRRF is the queue - it's dark and claustrophobic. Kali has an amazing queue, but the ride is forgettable - and it tends to merge with Congo River Rapids at BGTB and every other rapid ride I've ever been on apart from Popeye!

I like Ripsaw Falls and Atlantis better than Kali. Kali offers nothing worthwhile, especially for the wait it usually has, IMO.

kali is Swahili for 'premature ride climax'

 

[RSoxNo1]

Apparently I like to rank things today...
1. Splash Mountain
2. Popeye and Blutos
3. Journey to Atlantis
4. Kali River Rapids
5. Dudley Do Right's

Now that is some simple logic I can undestand.

Maybe the lockers could be added near the restrooms between Splash Mtn and Big Thunder.

KRR gets you soaked, so I am glad we can bring a backpack w/ extra dry clothing if we want w/o paying for a locker.

 

[BCVTalsJam]

Does anyone know if these lockers will be like the ones at universal? There you use your finger prints to unlock the lockers rather than carrying a key. I hope so I thought that was way easier than having to keep track of the key...I'm always afraid I'm going to lose it. I am so excited that they have the lockers now it makes me want to go on the ride more cause u get soaked.

 

[maryszhi]

i have no idea but assume so. we just have to wait and see

 

[Maerj]

This is a good idea. I never went on this ride... not a fan of walking around with wet clothes all day.

Great news. Now you can check your clothes!

Lol Disney really needs to invest in buying 1 or 2 human dryers like they have at ioa! Those worked perfect!

Agreed; I'm not really seeing a downside here.

Neither am I. I might ride it again for the first time since phones came out and I hit wallet age very soon.

This is great news. When we rode Splash Mountain we got soaked to the bone and had to go back to the hotel to change...had wished for dry clothes at that time. Having these lockers available is great. Wouldn't mind getting soaked on Kali at all with dry clothes around the corner!

Something about human dryers makes me think of very tasteless jokes.

I was at Animal Kingdom last Friday doing the Wild About Design tour (Just my wife and I with the two tour guides) and we walked by and the Guides didn't even know about the lockers. There was someone still working on the electronic key locks.
