I really think it's Jump Hang with spring board, given that there's no support in the middle. Picture of (what is possibly) spring board:

Sorry for not clarifying; I was trying to say that there's no outright object between the running platform and the net on the sides. I think the thing you highlighted is actually part of the building that holds the net, so I didn't it consider it 'in-between' the two things.

Well.. on the Slider Jump that piece did nothing for the net and just held up the end of the track... so it makes me thing theres something between the springboard and net you have to grab..

I do get your argument. However, personally I see lights ;P Though, it would be useless if it was only for lights. I think there's enough distance for competitors to jump though.

I'll put this in spoiler tags for size See that beam was present on the Slider Jump and it was part of that structure.. but it was there to hold up the end of the track..

Yes, but this one is disjointed, which brings up new questions.

I'm just saying the distance, net shape, and the crossbar make me suspicious something might be there...

Can you get any pics of old jump hangs? Yes, Do you want them like earlier in it's existence or later into it? Green mat era or Black Mat era?

Haha, nah just to see if they had a metal bar thing over it - any era or mat colour would suffice. Its not a big deal though.

Well that changes things; there's no huge metal bar so perhaps its not a jump hang. Maybe its a springboard to a slider jump?
edit: nvm its a jump hang - the metal thing is further to the right in another pic.

Cool stuff!
In the g4 video artyfowljr posted it looks like the first obstacle has 4 steps. Also, that log thing looks really tricky!
I think the obstacle after the SK is the a Springboard jump to a slider jump net. Cant wait till Jan 2d!! First TBS Trailer coming next weekend i assume?
