That depresses me so much. I would have never thought in a billion years they would have reverted back to the Shin-Sasuke style first stage. They had a PERFECT first stage in 25. Maybe the change is to help the ratings? Though you have to admit.. if they kept Sasuke 25 first stage we'd have like 30 clears..

Also, Wall Lift semi-confirmed (zoom into the pic about 3~4 times)

I am absolutely shocked.

Im glad - all what was made hard in 25 was stage 3 now we have the killer stage 3 a challening stage 2 and now a TOUGH 1st stage a true KANZEN RENEWAL lol.
It seems like 25 doesn't exist to em this is the first official tourny post Yuuji XD.

its still before the Halfpipe mate but im so glad the JS is back it owns the jump hang anyday. Are you sure? Im pretty sure the part that is closer to the camera is the beginning of the stage. And the JS looks further back than the HPA. Anyway, I hope they got at least some modification to the returning obstacles. Heres a close up zoom in on the pic.

Can someone tell me what that obstacle before the JS is? It looks pretty short but evil at the same time.

Look at how the mats are directed, if you focus, you'll see the JS is before the HPA.

Hrmmm... I'm actually a bit sad that the jumping spider and hpa are back. That is seriously a really major decision. I really liked the obstacles in 25. Honestly I feel like we had enough of the js and hpa, and I can't really say I liked them all that much to begin with. Though I'm not suprised the js is back, I wouldn't think that the majority of the first stage would revert back to shin sasuke format. Well now the only thing thats really new is the third stage. After Yuuji's kanzenseiha I was thinking they were going to come up with new obstacles just as good as js or hpa. I guess not.

And the camera angle is messing with my mind. It's a toughee to tell which comes first

Hmm I not sure man its too tricky close to call! But im more sure its before the HPA than after. Just IMO anyway!

To me it seems clear it's after the HPA. When have both obstacles been that easy to see from that angle without a bird's eye view? I recall the JS always obstructing the HPA view.

Nah man ive seen em in view like that before.
25s first stage to me was a bit meh the jumping spider is far cooler than the jump hang and harder.
The HPA im indifferent but here is the big Q whats after the soritsatsu kabe? the SLIDER JUMP or the CIRCLE SLIDER - im hoping the latter .........apart from in Nagano's case - he must go to stage 3 he is SASUKE. lol

Pic reposted since this is a new page. Okay well Jumping Rings is back. Doesn't look like Ascending Rings though... Also is it just me or do I not see a UCH?!?!?

The jumping rings are the same as before - they descended too and you can make out the BACK of the UCH further along.

Ah, you were right... I think the JS IS before the HPA. If you zoom in even closer from this screen you can see. Its pretty blurry but you can see that the JS is closer. Im curious about the second stage. It looks different from from the full size of this pic. It also looked kind of fishy in the other pic arsenette put up with the tester that looked like Akiyama. Im predicting they made some modifications to the second stage. Wow, now it looks as if Sasuke 25 didnt even exist! All different!

If you realize from past SASUKE, you realize that the gray box is there behind the JS run-up from 22~24. It's easy to tell if HPA is before or after using the gray box.
Always look for small things which will tell you where things are.
My biggest question atm is: is there an obstacle between the pendulum obstacle and JS?

My biggest question atm is: is there an obstacle between the pendulum obstacle and JS? It doesn't look like there is. But if there was an obstacle in between, it should be the Log Grip (which I haven't seen yet). That'd be the biggest shocker to me, if there were no log obstacle in Stage 1.
