I would like to try Tron and Guardians, but don't know if I should. Spinning isn't an issue, but being knocked around too much is. Have you tried either of these new rides? Please advise.
 
Trolls is basically Barmstormer like. It’s the old Woody Woodpecker coaster just rethemed. Very much a kiddie coaster.
 
I can only speak to Guardians and it's the smoothest coaster I've ever been on. It did make me dizzy but there are benches to sit afterwards and the cast members told me to sit there as long as I wanted.
 
Tron is less intense so maybe do that one first. Guardians is great but there is a lot of motion since the cars spin....they dont spin you, rather move the car so you are focused on what is going on in the various rooms. Both are smooth, if you have done Rockin Rollercoaster I think you will be good because that is NOT smooth

If you have a tendency to get motion sickness you may want to take some Bonine/Dramamine/similar before riding either Tron or Guardians. Guardians is more likely to affect you than Tron, but I still ended up feeling a little sick after riding Tron in the back row of one of the trains with "normal" (non cycle) back seats. In addition, if you sit in the middle rows on Guardians you are less likely to get motion sickness.
 
I've only been on Guardians and it was awesome and very smooth. Hopefully getting on Tron this August.
 
Between the two, I felt more queasy on Guardians. I had to look ahead at the track occasionally to not lose it. While people think Tren is too short, I think if it went on longer, I definitely would have felt queasy by the end.
 
Both are smooth, not like RnRC where we tend to feel 'knocked around'! But the seating for each is different (sorry if you know this!). GOTG has the nearly traditional seating, but the cars spin at times (which leads to some dizziness issues for some). Tron has seats more like a motorcycle, so you sit differently - not that different from Flight of Passage in AK, if you've experienced those seats. But neither is rough.
 
I'm an oldster, and have done both. Relative to Space Mountain, they're smooth as can be. I like Guardians because of the superior theming.

Guardians is my new favorite DW ride. I make sure to buy a LLSP and get a VQ for it on my Epcot day to ride twice. Tron I will only do if the line is short. It is fun but doesn't last long!

(Velocicoaster and Hagrid's at Universal are also favorites, I am an adrenaline junkie!)
 
I've done both and both are very smooth if that is your issue. I can't ride RNRC because my head bounces around like a pool ball the entire time. The first time I rode GOTG I got pretty dizzy and had to sit for about a half hour sipping water. I swore it was a one and done. Tron didn't bother me although the actual ride vehicles aren't my favorite. I decided to experiment one trip since I had issues with FOP, GOTG, EE and RNRC and try some Bonine. I'm a scuba diver and usually take one the night before a trip and one each morning during the trip and have never had any issues with sea sickness so I figured why not. I drive down from Georgia, about a 7 1/2 hour drive and I get to the parks at about 3 or so on arrival day. I took one the night before I left home and one each morning on the trip. I was able to ride all the above rides with no issues other than RNRC still knocked me around. Now, I take it every trip, if I ride the rides that bother me, good, if not it won't hurt me. It doesn't make me sleepy like Dramamine does and gives me no side effects. Even with the Bonine FOP still bothers me a little but deep breathing helps and I don't ride it every trip or even every other trip.
 
I have also been on both. TRON is slightly smoother. A little more jerking around with Guardians.

Have you looked at youtube to get an idea? Sometimes it helps....
 
TRON is very smooth and very short. We rode on the motorcycle seats but there is a bench seat at the back. Frankly, I'd ride them both now before the tracks get aged. Guardians is longer - slightly - but very fast and 'changey' which might eventually evolve into jerky. I can't ride Space Mountain at all anymore because of the bumpy track and RoRC makes my neck ache no matter how hard I press my head into the back rest or ride it with a relaxed neck. My only problem with Barnstormer is I'm getting to big for the seat :rolleyes:.
 
Neither were rough or jerky. Both made me very nauseous. And I had taken Dramamine before. Everyone should ride them once though!

I've done both. Tron in Shanghai and Gardians at Epcot. I'm not a fan of coasters in general and I will say that Tron was a bit much for me. Basically I was ready for it to be over after the launch! But Gardians was so much worse. I had to sit down for 15+ minutes after I got off that attraction.
 
I had 4 level spinal fusion in 2017 so I rode on the bench seats on Tron. I don't have an issue with motion sickness but the motorcycle seats were too uncomfortable for my neck.
