Out of all the obstacles since Sasuke 18 that are second to last, which one did you like the most? I personally liked the Circle Slider from Sasuke 25 the most but in terms of difficulty, I think the flying Chute from 19 will always remain the most difficult.

Giant Swing was easy but extremely time consuming.
My fav was the Slider Jump from 22. Great Obstacle.

There really was no reason to take away the flying chute. It was a great obstacle and I always thought it and the JS would be the last ones standing after a new renewal. I love the circle slider bt it would probably get a bit boring as tournaments progressed. I hate the Slider Jump the most out of all 4 of them. The Giant Swing should have the net farther away from the bar if they actually want people to fail it.
Overall I voted Flying chute.

IMO the Giant Swing was a great concept, but poorly executed. They should of made the jump to the bar just slightly easier than 25's circle slider and made it so you couldnt just reach for the net but you'd have to jump for it. I highly doubt it will be back for 27, bring back the circle slider is what I say.

Flying Chute from 19 is the best!

I think that they took out the flying chute because it was a disaster waiting to happen. Look how painful it was to people who missed or grabbed the rope wrong. Even for the people who did get it, the whiplash still was a cause for concern. Think what would have happened if someone missed the rope entirely...then caught it with their neck.

My opinions: Flying Chute=too tough/dangerous/time consuming Slider Jump=suitable difficulty/relatively safe ("relatively" because of the steep cargo net you had to go down)/moderate time consumption Circle Slider=moderate difficulty/pretty safe/quick Giant Swing=like the Slider Jump but much easier So I went with the Slider Jump (I probably like that one the best anyway). Regardless, they need something new for 27. Circle Slider Jump anyone?

Flying Chute is one of the greatest obstacles in Sasuke.
If your too high, you go over top.
If your too low, you miss grabbing the rope and fall.
However, if you are slow, you may not reach the net on the other side, and will have to swing your way across.
The amount of strategy one had to think about during the slide down was what made the obstacle great.
With every other obstacle listed, it's just about athletics. (Which is fine, but the Flying Chute was much more than just that.)
Also, seeing them swing at the end to grab the net was also exciting.

FC - Really nice obstacle, but I don't like it because it looked too dangerous SJ - Something about this obstacle rubbed me the wrong way. I think it was because it was kinda unoriginal in my mind CS - My favorite second to last obstacle of all time. Takes a lot of skill, is fast-paced, and is very fun to watch GS - Too easy and maybe takes too much luck because competitors have little control of the bar

I actually like the Giant Swing LOL I like it too. It has the best of the Circle Slider, and the Slider Jump rolled into one obstacle. I just wish it was a little harder, specifically the gap between the swing and the net.

Find a way to make the giant swing harder. Even though I secretly wanted to see a hybrid of a circle slider into a slider jump net..... But the Giant Swing is a good substitute!

The giant swing was fun to watch and is a great concept, it didn't eliminate anyone that we know of, but consumed a great deal of time. M9 are onto a winner with the Swing.

Had to go with the Flying Chute.
Definitely an obstacle that had the randomness of not knowing whether to go fast, slow, or just throw out the book and go Gung Ho about it.

Circle Slider. Nagano's awesome dive was 99/100 for me. The only gripe is........ he failed the obstacle. For second place I choose the Flying Chute. I never liked the Slider Jump and always wanted the Flying Chute to return on 23 and 24.

Move the net further away and the GS will be epic!
