This is about all you can do for a roller skater - the themeing was kinda quirky yet cool (especially the things in the cages... birds, maybe? I dont remember) and the in and out of the building was kind of neat. Other than that, its just a kiddie coaster with lackluster thrills for myself but smiles all around for the people who SHOULD be on the ride. The best part was trying to explain to the ride ps what a "credit" is and having them look at us like we were insane LOL

This is a great ride for little kids. I diddnt like it very much but it was a pretty good ride.

Ok maybe its pretty good. I rode it a couple of time with a good outcome. They probably should make it a little longer.

Disney always seems to make the ordinary extraordinary with their rides. Well, while not extraordinary by any stretch of the imagination, with the Barnstormer Disney transformed a pedestrian junior coaster into a pretty memorable one with the added thrill of theming. Anchoring the Toontown section of the park, one can’t help but divert their attention to the kid-friendly coaster majestically soaring around. And as I stated earlier, the theming is just superior for a junior coaster like this highlighted by the “goofy” entrance and the cartoonish barn where the helix finale passes through.

Generally this has a 20 minute wait, though in my opinion it’s pretty long for a junior coaster like this and I’d rather spend my time elsewhere. But onto the ride, the seats are comfortable as usual and the line does move very quickly on this thanks to it being the only standard roller skater to utilize a two train operation.

The ride is essentially identical to every other roller skater- a short, but sweet ride. What the ride lacks in size and speed, it makes up for with the glass-smooth ride it provides and some surprisingly powerful forces for a junior coaster, especially in that memorable and well-executed final helix that flies through the ride’s iconic barn that’s even complete with chickens (a small touch, but one that definitely just adds to the ride’s atmosphere). On normal roller skaters that final helix is my favorite element anyway, but the added thrill of the near-miss collision just makes it that much better. Still, the ride is very short, the only real flaw with the design.

Of the two roller skaters I’ve been on so far (this one and Universal’s), this one is far superior thanks to the drastically better theming, highlighted by the barn. The ride usually merits a 20 minute wait, but personally I usually skip it simply because I’d rather spend my time on other attractions. Still, this is a great coaster for kids and adults who tag along won’t be in for an uncomfortable ride at all since it’s actually pretty fun.

This was my first roller coaster and Id suggest it for anyone taking a young child to MK. If your over the age of 9 you probably would not find this apealing. This ride does have some fun and humerous visuals.

I gave this ride an eight because this is where it all started for me with thrill rides and roller coasters. This is the very first roller coaster Ive ever been on in my life. It was nice. I only had to wait for 10 minutes in line. I think this is a good ride. Even though this ride was intended for younger children, its still a good ride.

I dont see how this thing can get at least over a 5.You wait in a 40 minunte line for a 30 seacond ride.Even kids get bored on this ride.A waste of space and needts to be removed for something alot better.

Great for the kids and fun for everyone. It has good speed, and a decent kick for a little coaster. Its a fun ride through some nice themeing, and even a barn.
