Last time I went on this ride was in 2011. We went in the morning and used ponchos. People told us that ponchos wouldn't help, but they really did! We went on three or four times in a row and the CMs kept saying "You're back again??" I enjoy the ride, just need some ponchos!
Getting wet as in Splash Mountain is fine. I'll ride that multiple, multiple times every time I am in the MK.
Sorry, but if a ride requires packing in ponchos to avoid getting completely drenched, it's a fail. It was "value engineered" into it's current state. The fact that the awesome queue is never looked at because there is never a line for KRR is proof this needs to be redesigned.
Of course it never will be.

Kali River Rapids is just awful when compared to Popeye & Bluto's Bilge Rat Barges. I would if they could make the course longer or at least turn up the speed of the water to have some more intense rapids... Then I could have a chance to be on the same caliber as Popeye.

I know this really great joke that i said once in high school...
I like the ride but it could have been so much more. The length is mostly going up that long belt then some nice scenery but way too short on the fun. This is why I get so ticket when people build up a drop in disney world. A drop is fun for a few seconds while this ride could have added a few minutes on and been twice as fun.

I'm not saying it couldn't be better, but I still enjoy it and I don't mind putting a poncho on for it.

I've never seen this before.
My goodness, this would have been amazing. I don't like saying this too often because I never met the man and only know about him through books, but that Tiger River would seem like the kind of attraction that Walt Disney would have LOVED if he was still alive. It looks like what Jungle Cruise was supposed to be when he first dreamed it up...with live animals. It would have been incredible.

If these boards are a pot luck dinner, then folks like Martin are ALWAYS baking the cakes.
