So do we know if they are just finishing up stage one? Or finishing stage one and starting stage 2?

Goddamn it G4, no one would think of turning to you for CC. Anyway, only the last 12, the strongest out of the 100, are going, so I suppose most of them will do it.
Still a bit skeptical about Livewire. That Jumping Spider has been ruthless.
And is there any way we can change the ANW4 results list to look like the SASUKE results tables? One of the columns makes it look awkward.

I'm not going to say it here, you're going to have to look for that... but it isn't the JS, it's another obstacle that has been brutal compared to the original incarnation

Comic-Con.
Is it just me or is the ANW Rolling Maruta thinner? The Japanese one is 60 cm in diameter (around two feet thick), but maybe it's the giant flanges.

And adding to that, 25 version

Post by thatoneuser on Jul 16, 2012 16:42:15 GMT -5
Yep, looks to me like 25 version with only one handle (which has been very unfair to a lot of the shorter competitors, especially the women)

Well the Sasuke 25 version looks like a longer Sasuke 6 version with bigger stoppers

I keep losing any respect I have for Iseman as a commentator when I see Drew Drechsel hopping on the bottom of the Wall and him saying "he looks injured."

I sure do hope Luis Moco didn't re-damage (and consequently irritate) his meniscus too badly. That could be pretty serious. Hopefully we see a Drew Drechsel-like comeback out of him next year.

Well, I knew David Campbell wouldn't get that far. Somehow Iseman finally got to mention that he was the most successful in AMERICAN Ninja Warrior. Kane is finally recognized... somewhat.
I hope people saw how he took on the UCH. And that someone actually got there.

Well to be fair he was saying that as drew was running in 27, what else could he have said there really, of all the commenting things he's done, that's not really the one to fault him on lol Well, I knew David Campbell wouldn't get that far. Somehow Iseman finally got to mention that he was the most successful in AMERICAN Ninja Warrior. Kane is finally recognized... somewhat.

Yeah, I knew he was going to fail there, but yeah, good to see that mentioned.
As for your UCH comment, I could go into more spoilers if you'd like I sure do hope Luis Moco didn't re-damage (and consequently irritate) his meniscus too badly. That could be pretty serious. Hopefully we see a Drew Drechsel-like comeback out of him next year. Yeah, I hope he recovers and gets revenge too, whenever I see runs cut short due to injury like that I always want to see them come back to the course at 100%

Poor midwest...

At least it wasn't 0 clears... that would have sucked...
Although I'm not really surprised if there weren't enough people to begin with and they had to bring some mid-south competitors into the running of midwest...
