Sasuke 23 had a lot of first stage clears. While some people still ran out of time, some cleared with 10, 20, and even 30 seconds on the clock.
Keeping in mind that they probably want a Kanzenseiha soon but still want to keep the course challenging, what will the new first stage time limit be.
I'm going to say 115.

Well we saw many over 10 second clears so i said 110. The only people that got less are people that imo should have timed out like Kanno, Urushihara, and Enchi

As much as I'd like to see that, there will be absolute zero time cut. |

I'd like to see 115 again but I don't think it will happen.

If they're not gonna do 115, I think they should at least go with 120.

No cut, I think. The 1st Stage isn't *that* easy yet. They could just as well mix it up with a couple of new obstacles.

IMO, 110 seconds sounds good after seeing 16 Stage 1 clears in Sasuke 23...or this is at least what Monster 9 would do.  Then again, Stage 1 is already enough of a challenge. Eh, what the heck. I'll say that it will also have 120 seconds.  |

The new 23 obstacles were a disappointment because no well known competitors are going to fail the first two which made me feel like it was a useless change. Later obstacles that are new obviously do this job better, but, then again the previous year in 22 was a disaster so they didn't have to make it harder. |

Well it looked like Lee Enchi had a close call on the Curtain Slider, and it even seemed as if someone else who passed Stage 1 (possibly Okuyama) had a little trouble on the Jyunidantobi for a second. But yeah, in general, you're right.  Wow, that may have been the first time that I ever used the face in any of my 400 or so posts. |

Lee only had trouble on the Curtain Slider because it was windy during his run, otherwise he would have cleared it easily.
In terms of the First Stage time, it all depends on the new obstacles. If they get rid of obstacles like the HPA or Jyunidantobi, the time will probably get cut based on whatever they replace it with. At most, I see 115.
