I wouldn't put it past G4 to change the name of Bridge Jump or even Doorknob Grasper to something stupid. This is the same company that changed Prism See-Saw to Prism Tilt...

Well they got through Shin Sasuke just fine except for a couple Stage 3 obstacles and the X-Bridge.. I think Bridge Jump will be the Bridge Jump.. Like I Said.. Doorknob Grasper is either staying or being the Doorknob Grasp.. |

Ultimate Cliffhanger -> Cliffhanger I honestly believe they will call it the Ultimate Cliffhanger. The problem with the "Shin" Cliff Hanger, was that since Shin meant New, it just seemed weird always calling it the "New Cliff Hanger" so it made sense to just call it the "Cliffhanger" But this time the word "Ultimate" is both in English, and it isn't a commonly used adjective like "New" so yeah. However, I have a feeling they will change Roulette Cylinder name. |

Explain Delta Bridge to Grip Hang then lol. |

Explain Delta Bridge to Grip Hang then lol. I can't defend that. Neither can I defend.... My Top 5 worst G4 obstacle names. 5. Prism Tilt (Although I don't mind this one... but whatever) 4. Grip Hang (Half of the obstacle's on Sasuke could be called the "Grip Hang") 3. Bridge of Destiny (It's just monkey bars, "Rope of Destiny" would've made a bit more sense) 2. Eye of the Needle (WTF?) 1. Twelve Timbers (Do I need to?) However they usually change obstacle names that are ugly. I don't really like that, but that's what they do. Ultamate Cliffhanger sounds normal, so I don't see why they would change it. But the Roulette Cylinder..... |

But the Roulette Cylinder..... I wouldn't be surprised if they call it the Rumbling Wheel or something like that.  Other than that though they'll probably keep most of the obstacles' names identical or very similar to what names we've already become familiar with, especially considering how half of the obstacles are being reused from the past. BTW, by the same logic as them calling the UCH by its correct name, shouldn't they do the same with the Double Salmon Ladder? Either way, IMO they'll keep this one the same as well. |

I expect them to change the Dome Steps but not to the Sextuple steps.

Dome Steps will definitely be Sextuple Steps (anyone wanna bet on that?). Watch, they'll end up making the Bridge Jump into the Bridge of Blades on "accident". |

Actually IIRC they combined its proper name with the one I thought they would give it and called it the Roulette Wheel. BTW, for those of you who didn't watch it, they did in fact call everything else by its proper name during the narration or very close to it. Here's the list: Stage 1Dome Steps=Dome Steps Rolling Maruta=Rolling Log Jump Hang=Jump Hang Bridge Jump=Bridge Jump Log Grip=Log Grip Soritatsu Kabe=Warped Wall Circle Slider=Circle Slider Tarzan Rope + Rope Ladder=Final Climb Stage 2Slider Drop=Slider Drop Double Salmon Ladder=Double Salmon Ladder in narration/G4 obstacle symbol (i.e. it has 2 fish now instead of 1! ), but still written as only Salmon Ladder on the screen Unstable Bridge=Unstable Bridge Balance Tank=Balance Tank Metal Spin=Metal Spin Wall Lifting=Wall Lift Stage 3Roulette Cylinder=Roulette Wheel Doorknob Grasper=Doorknob Grasp (not sure if that's how they wrote it but that's what they called it during Brian's failure replay Floating Boards=Floating Boards Ultimate Cliffhanger=Ultimate Cliff Hanger in narration/G4 obstacle symbol (it now shows the first 3 ledges of the UCH rather than the old backwards "L" thing that they had), but still written as only Cliff Hanger on the screen |

It seems that only the Roulette Cylinder had a naming problem.
*Sigh*
Just when everything seemed perfect.

 Yes, this and the first third-stage obstacle look nothing alike, what was G4 thinking? The RC (at least the bit the competitors had to hang onto) looks like a wagon wheel without the outer rim attached. Even if you're offended by the very idea of even the slightest renaming of obstacles, this ranks pretty low on the list of things G4 has 'gotten wrong' over the years. |
