There are a couple of new events added to the line when the show "randomly" chooses their events.
Trampoline: I guess its the monster box thing, since the run up is in the pics, but they jump on a springboard a la Circle Slider, not a trampoline (Jump Hang, Jumping Spider).
Amazing Road: I saw an Kinniku episode by accident, because I was looking for something different, and this came up. In the newest commercials, there are big sliver bars that move that people have to get past towards the goal. Thats what this is.
Untouchable: No idea, maybe someone can describe this.
Don't make a big deal if you already know this, just pointing it out/people that didn't notice it.

They did Nakama where they have to do a course with two people wearing straps that tie them together, no one won. Then they did Banzai 90 (the one where you throw the people up onto the hanging padded log thingys (They were saying they are sandbags on this episode), a team called "Break Monkeys and Cheerleaders" (Who is made up of Muscle Musical members as far as I can tell and is led by Iketani Naoki) won the event this episode and they were refering to another team winning the event but I don't think G4 showed it (I only remember them showing Banzai 90 once before and I don't remember anyone winning)

But for some reason, the orginal airdates for the "new" episodes were in late April-early May (at least that's what it said on my TV, but I only remember reruns on there.

They have the starting buzzer sound, the first COURSE on banzuke with a real time (To my knowledge)

Well technicly Neko de Drive was a course and you had to get through part 1 in 60 seconds. But Strong Mama seems like Kunoichi to me, the first obstacle seems kind of like the Flying Pilar (but yet it still seems like a dropless Log Grip) and the Rolling Panic seems like the Barrel Roll doubled. Plus the fact its womans only (although for a couple of the competitors I doubt they check ). And what did I miss on Banzuke last week anyways?

Heres the wiki page course info:
Courses
Courses that are defeated are then recreated in an attempt to be made more difficult and thus "Unbeatable". This is why there are different versions (I, II, III, IV, V) next to some names. Sometimes an obstacle is changed between attempts to conquer this game. This is why there are letters (A, B) next to the versions. This is most likely done because of the injuries caused by this obstacle. Some of these events have "break zones", where any competitor who reaches that point is allowed to take a 30-second break before they must continue on with the course.
Hand Walk I, IIa, IIb, IIIA, IIIB -- Obstacle course where competitors walk on their hands. This course has a break zone. Between IIIA and IIIB, the Conveyor Belt was changed to Bamboo Bridge. Also, between IIa and IIb, a lot of the obstacles were changed, because the course was deemed too difficult for even the most skilled contenders. This challenge has had 3 victories.
Like a Pierrot I, II, III, IV, V -- Obstacle course where competitors ride a unicycle. This event has had 8 victories, the most of any challenge.
Super Rider I, II, III -- Obstacle course where competitors ride a bicycle. This challenge has had 2 victories.
Skeboarder -- Obstacle course where competitors ride a skateboard. This course has a break zone. This challenge has had 1 victory.
Bamboo Derby I, IIA, IIB, III -- Obstacle course where competitors walk on stilts. Between IIA and IIB, Green Mountain was changed to Snow Mountain. This challenge has had 2 victories.
Kangaroo -- Obstacle course where competitors use a pogo stick.This course has a break zone.
Giant Ball -- Obstacle course where competitors stay atop a 5-foot-wide ball.
Ottoto 9 -- Obstacle course where competitors balance a metal pole on two fingers (hands in US Version). Letting your pole fall or touch any metal obstacle results in failure. This course has a break zone. This challenge has had 1 victory.
Super Helico -- Obstacle course involving a radio-controlled helicopter. This course has a break zone to allow the copter's batteries to be replaced.
Neko de Drive -- Obstacle course involving a man transporting a woman on a wheelbarrow that looks like a cat (a "neko{cat}cart"). The contestants have 60 seconds to complete the first four obstacles and reach the break zone. After that, the time is unlimited.
Quick Muscle -- Two competitors have to do as many push-ups as they can in 3 minutes. The one who does more at the end of 3 minutes is declared the champion. This challenge has had 5 victories in a row. In one of them, a contender bit his lips hard enough to bleed, marking the first time to show blood in that show.
Muscle Gym -- Two competitors have to do as many sit-ups, back extensions, and push-ups as they can in 3 minutes.This challenge has had 4 victories.
Athletic Love -- Two people of a couple stand at either end of a bridge-like construct. They have 60 seconds to reach the center without falling off or using their hands. This challenge has had 2 victories.
Sponge Bridge I, II -- Competitors have to walk atop three rows of giant foam blocks, each harder than the last. KUNOICHI's third stage obstacle, Domino Hill, is similar to this event. This challenge has had 2 victories.
Daruma 7 -- A 'daruma' sits atop a stack of 7 blocks. Competitors use a sledgehammer to knock out each block from the bottom up without letting the 'daruma' fall off. This challenge has had 2 victories.
Super Daruma -- Modified version of Daruma 7 which has 9 blocks to knock out instead of 7.
Daruma 7 Ace -- which the blocks start out small and get larger.
Double Daruma 7 -- Modified version of Daruma 7 where 2 players must knock all blocks. The daruma doesn't fall because it is heavier. First Person to knock all blocks wins.
Extra Kendama -- Competitors play with a life-size kendama. They have 60 seconds to swing the ball onto the large cup, then onto the small cup, and finally onto the central spike.
Seesaw 60 -- Two people stand atop a giant seesaw. They have 60 seconds to move a 10 kg barrel from one side to the other without letting either end of the seesaw touch the floor. A third person gets to call out advice to the other two people.This challenge has had 1 victory.
Banzai 90 -- A 6-person team has 90 seconds to launch one of their own onto each of four padded logs hanging several feet above the floor. The logs are of varying heights: Red - 11 ft 4 in, Yellow - 10 ft 7 in, Green - 10 ft 1 in, and Blue - 9 ft 1 in.
Nakama Ia, Ib -- Two people run through an obstacle course while tethered together. They have 70 seconds to reach the end. They updated the rolling polls to make you go on your stomach.
Strong Mama -- A course designed specifically for women. They have 60 seconds to clear the first five obstacles. After that, time is unlimited.
Untouchable -- 4 contestants face off, 2 at a time, 1-on-1 in a caged wrestling competition, with 3 batons each strapped to their bodies, on their back and each leg. The competitors must remove 2 out of 3 batons off of the other to win a match. After a baton is removed, competition ceases temporarily as the baton is placed in a box. The first person to win 2 matches is placed on the Banzuke. This challenge has had 1 victory.
