Holy crap, it IS a Ladder! And I see a rope tied to it, and it looks like theres another one, I guess this must be how the Final Stage ladder is pushed and pulled into place. It can't be not a ladder and just supports, look at the other side.

I thought it was easy to see. I guess that Final Ring pic background wasn't a mistake. OK, Two speculations of how this is done, its angled and you have to climb it (I'd expect arms only, a ladder would be too easy and they course is supposed to be harder than ever), or you have to go up it like a regular ladder like that and then just jump to the rope (the ropes in that pic don't look like climbing ropes, They look like for the upwards camera and the harness) which is would what makes the Final Stage hard, deceivingly easy first part, super hard rope climb as if you miss or your grip is off you're going down and a chance of the rope swaying causing something similar to Nagano in Sasuke 12 EDIT: BTW I looked at those pictures, the one of the jumping spider, is this some kind of optical illusion or are the walls that low to the Trampoline?

Thanks, but I'm not the first person to say it was a ladder, I was skeptical at first, then I saw the two clues, and now a picture confirms the theory.

Looks like its set up to me, And even before set up the landing shouldn't be that close to the trampoline. Providing its someone good doing the helmet cam runs we'll find out for sure in a few.

Lol sorry I sounded like id just won a gold medal or something lol its just not long after sasuke 20 i caught onto it what it looked like it was but everyone kinda discarded it, so I just soaking up the moment a sec as I was the first to suss it. Now we just need someone to beat this thing so we can guess the next final stage lol.

So which way do you think they'll do it? Angled and arms only or jump to the rope. Time limit guesses? I'd say the old standard of 30

No, arms only won't happen, sorry. Angling would make the final stage longer than the 22.5 M.
I just think the actual rope climb is longer.

What if they wanted to make it longer? I mean why did they go to 50 to 75 feet? They probably couldn't find a safe way for climbing a 100 foot tower.

Because that would make it impossible.
Using only your arms is already going to be 3x harder than the spider walk. Make the distance even LONGER and the final stage would be impossible, and Higuchi isn't THAT mean.
He even said his ideal situation would be for Levi and Nagano to beat it together someday.

I guess that the climb up then jump to the rope thing works perfectly then, I mean its out of the way and it would make the rope sort of like Sasuke 12, the Ladder would be easy and then the swaying rope climb is the real challenge. And its off to the side so it doesn't impale you when the rope drops.

It might not be off to the side in the actual competition Rider.
It obviously wasn't fully ready, so they probably pull it out and center it.
That's another reason why this picture doesn't 100% confirm anything.
THough we do see a ladder that could serve a lot of purpose, maybe there are 2 ladders that you go up? You never know.
We'll just wait 4 months until Nagano and Takeda make the final stage.

I dunno, That seems like its a good place for it actually, and why wouldn't they have the other ladder set up anyways? And two ladders doesn't seem like something for Sasuke, that was beaten twice in two versions on Kunoichi.

I was giving an example, not speculating.
I'm just saying it wasn't fully set up, or else the rope would've been down the middle instead of tied off to the side.
I was saying maybe the ladder gets pulled out to the middle, that'd make more sense to me.
Also having it off to the sides prevents it from being revealed easily.
