This is the first time I'm seeing the new bobsleds. They look nice. I think they made a wise choice by separating the seats. I'll never forget as a kid sitting between my mom or dad's legs on this ride in the 80s and 90s. Good times. Everything else is exactly the same except for the new yeti, a small projection screen, and some new mangled sledding equipment. This is one of the few rides my fiance can handle since they get motion sick easily. :)
For the folks wondering about belt checks, watch the moment when the car in front of OP's stops right before the cave opening. The employee instructs everyone to yank on their belts to ensure it's secure. They've been doing that for decades.
The seats in the bobsleds were certainly a lot different when I went to Disneyland as a Cub Scout in the 1960s. In those days, the climb up the lift hill was still completely open, so that the steel support girders were very visible, and the skyway buckets still passed through the mountain. There was no yeti theming in place back then, either. I haven’t been back to Disneyland since 1994. To date, the only Spanish I know besides “dos cervezas por favor,” is what comes at the end of the Matterhorn bobsleds: “REMAIN SEATED PLEASE. PERMANECER SENTADOS POR FAVOR.” This is probably still the most iconic recorded announcement in all of Disneyland.
That ride saves me SO much money. Instead of paying thousands of dollars to see a chiropter, I just buy a park ticket and get my adjustment on that ride.
