I'm ganna cry

[sasuke1247]

You all no my fave is Yamada. And all you said is Miyagi is ganna beat first stage and Yamada is ganna fail jumping spider, but no Miyagi failed and Yamada twisted his ankle and still did the half pipe attack and i wanted to cry cause I said hes my fave and he beat the jumping spider and making it to the warped wall again is heaven for me

[Badalight]

Yeah, he did very good this time around.

[RiderLeangle]

I hate to admit it because I don't like his attitude, But he did do good considering he had a hurt ankle and made it worse on the Jumping Spider landing.

[davidyko]

I agree. Also, I'd like to take this moment to gloat slightly to the people that thought that there was no way in hell Yamada would do better than Miyagi.

[blackiechan]

All I know is Mark said Yamada was the most supportive Allstar for him, said he tryied to calm his nerves and everything (without being able to speak english to him). So therefore seeing his heart like that... I like him! BTW Mark ripped a tendon in his finger the night prior... Maybe that had some cause in his run..I almost guarantee it.. My heart shattered with mark.

[arsenette]

Aww hell I didn't know that about Mark! Please pass him my deepest sympathies and quick recovery! As for Yamada. I am happy he wsa there for Mark.. SEE? He misses me off.. I want to hate him one minute thenhe goes and being all charming again.. only for him to turn into a butthead.. gaaaaaah.. Glad Mark had a positive experience with him.

[RiderLeangle]

So mark hurt his finger? Damn, hanging on to the Log Grip until the drops was good then. Whats with all the injuries at 21? Mark and his Finger, Yamada at his ankle, Nakata at his Wrists.

So basicly what TBS and G4 are doing are only showing part of Yamada to make him look bad like this? Like making something up, like that picture of Yamada that Nagano had was a doctored pic of Nagano's wall?

Ah no, really?!? That's got to kill to rip a tendon in your finger. That explains everything for me. He made no excuses when he was interviewed (that we saw on TBS) although he had a really good one. Big respect for him. Hope to see him make a comeback and I hope his story gets told in November. I'm sure it will.

Yamada - way to go. I'm really glad to hear that about him. His actions speak louder than words.

Thanks for the info Blackie!

I just mentioned this in another thread, but if you watch the intro segment to Sasuke, you can see that Yamada is already limping a bit.

[madmanike]

While I'm sure his finger played a part in it, I think it was mostly nerves that caused Mark to go early. You could see it in his run from the start. I hope he gets another shot at it now that he's had some experience of what to expect when he gets there. Time will tell.

As far as Yamada, kudos to the guy for being supportive to others and running the course on a gimp leg. I saw his landing after the JS, but had no idea of how injured he was. I thought he was just gassed by the time he hit the WW, but it was obviously the pain. Here's hoping to a quick recovery for the guy.

[davidyko]

I immediately thought he was injured on the WW, with such a limp. Yamada's made of stronger stuff, after all, and even if he has trouble on it, he'd be able to muster a better effort.

[RiderLeangle]

I noticed he was hurt when he fell over after the Jumping Spider although I probably should have noticed when he landed it and stopped and looked down at his legs.

And not knowing about the finger problem, I could see Marks problem, he was rushing too fast and jumped onto the Log Grip and get a proper grip, but he jumped on and they added some kind of Pressure Starter thing to the Log Grip so that started it without him trying and it started going without him and he started slipping a notch back but it was too late and had to go with it. But even with a hurt finger he probably still could have done good, he still has 9 other good ones (although you don't really use your thumb much on Sasuke so make that 7) and if he fought through it, I mean Nakata Daisuke made it to stage 2.

[buckeyemaniac]

Yea, Mark falling was really surprising. I feel he should've gone in 20 and is as good (if not better than) Levi in ability. If Mark tries back again for 22, I could definitely see him getting voted back in.

[scnoi1217]

That does suck about Mark, didn't know about that. Unfortunately, that's probably all he's going to get since people will only see that run and say he sucks. Personally, I'd love to see him try again, but I don't think that will happen.

[blackiechan]

Just got a text from Mark earlier today, he's looking at a 6 month recovery. He damaged his Ulnar nerve. I really hope he heals quickly he deserves another chance. He said he can't even play his guitar

[arsenette]

Awwwwwwwww Rus!!!!!! Please send him our deepest condolences and prayers for a quick recovery! I swear G4 better do something and mention that.. I mean .. it looked like a fluke to me! Oh god..

[arsenette]

Oh and ask him permission for me to change my blog and explain why he fell? I won't put that on a blog that everyone reads without him knowing it..

[RiderLeangle]

Yeah, send him my get well message too.
But what I want to know is how did that happen?


And yeah, G4 better mention it, I thought he just messed up.

[gtoneko]

More than likely they will, since it was noted on the ANC 2 special before NW 20 that Brett Simms did hurt his foot and wasn't able to fully train with Shunsuke for the trampoline training, wasn't able to join the free runners around Tokyo for a pre-training bit, and had to be really cautious when it came to the Pipe Slider at Muscle Park, well before they added the final ring just recently.

[RiderLeangle]

They didn't add the Final (Or Gliding) Ring at Muscle Park, they added the Arm Rings, you were at the complete wrong side of Stage 3 for the last obstacle at Muscle Park, And if they have to have the Arm Rings there, Why can't they replace the Arm Bike with it? Or better yet have a Sasuke 18 thing for having both.
