Who will be the first to dominate the Ultimate Cliff Hanger? After you vote, explain in a message who you voted for.
Ex: If you voted All-Star you would say in a message "I voted All-Star because I think Nagano will be the first to complete the Ultimate Cliff Hanger"
Simple as that

Probably Yuuji if he gets there in Sasuke 26 since he's a beast at any type of Cliff Hanger.

I hope all star. New stars have a lot to learn. Nagano will be the first, he never failed the cliff hanger besides the time when he disqualified himself. But for now Nagano needs to focus on the First stage. Takeda might clear it if he gets lucky. As for Shingo - When was the last time he got past the cliffhanger? Yamada and Akiyama - You know. Bunpei - Too many injures, probably wont get that far, but if he does then he might clear.
Hmm, now that i think of it Takahashi, Lee or Okuyama might be the first. It really depends on what order they go in.

I am thinking that with Lee being a rock climber that might help, but the fact that you can't use your feet, well, just forget what I just said. Im thinking either Nagano, Yuuji, Takeda, or possibly Lee. One of them should be the first.

I voted New Star, but now I'm not so sure. I don't think it'll be an All Star, I imagine if any of them ever clear it it'll be Nagano only, and even if he gets past his First Stage mental block I doubt he's up to the task for a while. The New Stars (or some of them, anyway) seem to be the best equipped for the job with their training, but the few that have reached the Third Stage seem to struggle with consistency. They do have the advantage that pretty much anyone younger than 30 who comes and does well will probably get labeled a New Star.

I voted New Star, You've got an UNCLI member, a Rock Climber, A deliveryman who is a complete beast on the course (And apparently Kenji was one of the Testers from Sasuke 18) (OK, you have two deliverymen but you can definitely say Kongu has a better chance than Tajima), and two gym instructors.. The only All-Star I think who has a chance to pass the UCH is Nagano and he's been losing focus in stage 1 the last two tournaments. And yes, as much as I hate to say it, I don't think Takeda has a chance on the UCH, He always seems to run out of endurance after hanging a long time and if he isn't drained by the first 3 obstacles the UCH would get him for sure, and that's not even counting if he still has shoulder problems..

And apparently Kenji was one of the Testers from Sasuke 18 How do you know that? I found that out during his profile for 24 when he was running stage 3, He's attempting prototypes, I put in spoiler tags for size I thought they were replicas until I saw the Prototype Log Grip

Very interesting regarding Kenji being a tester...
I think Yuuji will be the first one to beat it.

Other - At least one of the Americans from ANW2 will beat it in Sasuke 26.

I said New Star.
I've got a hunch it'll be someone like Okuyama and not Nagano... but only because they will have a lower number than Nagano. Nagano can only be the first if nobody with a lower number than him clears it next tournament.
Edited to add: That said... there are a couple Americans that I could see passing it. I hope they get the chance.

By this I'm hoping that you, like I do, would like to see a Cliff Hanger v6.0 within the next few tournaments or so since the UCH is just...oh how should I say this...f***ing ridiculous.

Other: I'm gonna own that thing! I know this is gonna sound kinda weird, but it just doesn't look that hard.
Ok well let me rephrase that. It looks super easy to get up to the top rail, honestly I just don't get how they all failed so hard. The jumps don't look any harder than the shin-cliff jumps. What makes it look hard to me is just that it's 30' wide (old one was 20' I believe) and that after you get to the top rail. So people should be failing because they run out of gas in the middle, not right off the bat. The firt 3 obstacle don't look like they'd tire you out much if you did them right also. What looks like it might be tricky is the pipe jumper thing.

Well I expect (provided M9 doesn't rework the course again for 26) that there will be a lot more clears. Given a) ANW guys are taller b) the element of surprise is now gone c) people who overthunk the Circle Slider (which I believe a lot of people just keep ignoring.. ) will get a grip and do better d) springboards around the world are going to be pwned this summer.. LOL
