Ben Melick is somehow a captain again, with Weinand and some random female.

After 31 32 should really have been a 18 type renewal only things renewed are the cliffhanger and vertical limit merged beautiully into a monster 2 parter and the final stage is new everything else there is nothing. Has to be budget reasons surely? Yusuke is going to beat this again sooner than later. Not that 3rd stage-its unbeatable. But it shouldn't be. Knowing there won't be a final stage makes the 3rd stage boring. What they need to do is increase the difficulty slightly from 31, but change the concept of the course completely. Make it more about technique. Once you've reached a certain difficulty level, the only way to make the course harder is to change the obstacle concepts. This automatically makes the course more challenging, but also keeps it doable.

Zhanique Lovett is on a team (just not sure which one). Lab Rats are back this year (seems like Chris Wilczewski's injury has healed up). She's with Jackson Meyer and Nick Hanson for team Frostbite.

After the disgraceful way the team acted to win the 2015 Copa America, I wasn't too sad to see them go. But I'm half-Chilean, so I want to cheer for my team, and now I can't. Don't worry there's always Canad-ohwait (as an american i shouldn't be talking lol)

As a fan, I'm just laughing now. We're terrible, and we need to get to the root of the issue. On the bright side, both Chile and Holland also got eliminated. That's not the bright side, Chile got eliminated After the disgraceful way the team acted to win the 2015 Copa America, I wasn't too sad to see them go.

For the first time since 1986, the United States has failed to qualify for the World Cup. Despite needing only a draw against Trinidad and Tobago, they lost 2-1 and were eliminated after being paired with wins from Honduras and Panama (if even one of them drew, they could have at least gone to a playoff). Basically everything that could go wrong did. As a fan, I'm just laughing now. We're terrible, and we need to get to the root of the issue. On the bright side, both Chile and Holland also got eliminated.

Yep. TBH I was surprised TBS agreed to her running the men's course (glad she did) after seeing what Kacy did on the women's course. I'm sure Jessie clearing Stage 1 in ANW was enough of a qualifier to tell TBS that she was good enough to try the men's course in Sasuke. The only adjustment that they did for Jessie was a time difference (10 more seconds in the 2nd stage) but otherwise she legit ran the same course as the men. She had the extra 10 seconds in stage 1 as well but course setup was the same. Do we know if she got 40 seconds rest time in Stage 3 or same 30 as everyone else? I remember her shouting at Drew to take 40 seconds of rest, so this may have been true.

Remember that stage 3 had a platform between the flying bar and sidewinder. He blew through those so fast though, I don't think the resting platform would've made much of a difference. You'd be surprised how beneficial a 30 second rest can be.

If Drew fails the UCCH again in 35 I am calling what happened in 32 a freak fluke lol prove me wrong in 35 Drew!!! Morimoto knows the cliffhanger is his Biatch he even had time to one hand get chalk on his hands and wave to his family while on it THAT IS HOW YOU SHOW AUTHORITY!! Remember that stage 3 had a platform between the flying bar and sidewinder.

Is that the farthest any woman has gotten on any version of Sasuke or Ninja Warrior? Yes. Also Drew with the shorts!
