Personally, its a toss up between the RE and the Half-Pipe. I'll be more practical on this one and go with the snail.

Okay...I believe that if I got a little lucky, I could clear Stage 1. But I have no upper body strength, which is why I'd fail the DSL(I'm building a replica in my backyard to train my upper body though  ). |

RE would kill me and if that's not there, Jumping Spider only because I've only been on a trampoline ONCE in my life much less one with bungees instead of springs.

I'm far too tall to make it past the jumping spider, I would only be able to slowly shuffle my way along with my forearms as opposed to palms. If it weren't for that, then RE/Spin Bridge/Clear.

I can see how you'd do the RE and Giant Swing, but even if I got past those two, I'd probably fall of the jumping spider.

I could get past the first 3 obstacles and maybe the jumping spider, but i'd fail on the half pipe attack.

I could see myself on the DSL. Stage 1 has always been what I'm built best for. It'd be like my playground. 1. Step Slider - No way I'd fail this, unless I pulled a lee 2. RE- I rock climb and the technique for the RE is very similar to how rock climbers stay on the wall. I should pass without much difficulty. 3. Giant Swing - Yeah.... 4. Jumping Spider - My legs are strong. After years of track I can jump incredibly high, especially off of a trampoline. Plus with my flexibility and long legs I wouldn't even need to jump as far as most people. I could see myself failing this but most likely I don't think I would. 5. HPA - It's not as hard as it once was. I'd most definitely be able to grab and hold on, but I'm sure I'd Miyazaki it once or twice. Doesn't matter though with this stages leniant time limit. 6. Warped Wall - Strong legs, 6 feet tall. You think I'd even break a sweat at this? 7. Canonball Run - Not too sure on this one... But I should be able to make it cross with only 2 steps so maybe that'd make it easier. I can see passing and failing on this. Too hard to say. 8 Tarzan Rope - Anyone who isn't Jake Smith should have no problems here. Time Limit: I'd never time out. Not with the lenient time limit. Plus I have insane endurance. I'd say 70% chance of beating stage 1. Stage 2 I'm worried about the DSL. I know I have the strength and endurance to do it, it's just if I can get past the mental game. When I built my Salmon Ladder it took FOREVER to get up 1 rung. Not because I sucked but because it was just plain scary |

I honestly believe I could clear stage 1. But that DSL, no chance

I think most of us maniacs (who are in shape) who know the course by heart and train for sasuke would so similar to most of the Americans... clear Stage One, fail or barely clear Stage Two, definitely fail Stage 3. Personally, I train a lot for the Double Salmon Ladder so I think I would barely clear that (if I made it that far). I could really see myself eating it on the Metal Spin though... there's not really a way to truly train for that and it's all about where the obstacle hangs and what kind of jump you get.

It's tough to say. I'm pretty confident I could beat the first two stages unless either timing out, I choke or just plain bad luck. Third stage again with enough luck, I'm sure I could make it to the UCH. That's where it gets tricky. First you have 3 incline ledges which for me are tough and those drops on the 6th and 7th ledge can be brutal. Still, if I knew I was going to compete I would train hard and then who really knows? So I voted "final stage time out" cause I think that would be my weakness. Especially after such a long and trying day.

I'd probably fall on the RE. If I made it past that, I'd probably fail the HPA. If I cleared THAT, I'd probably fall on the Spinning Bridge. If, by some miracle, I cleared the first stage, I would fall on the DSL. I don't have the upper body strength to do that obstacle.

Kanzenseiha easily... haha just kidding. I could see myself failing the Rolling Escargot, simply because I'm not very familiar with the technique. But I think if taught the technique I could pass that. But I'd probably fail the Jumping Spider after that since my right leg's still not as strong as it once was after surgery in January. And I'd definitely fail that at the taping of it, considering I had only been cleared to jump again about a month or so before. Hell, I'd probably even fail the step slider with how weak I was.

I'd probably be out of breath at the end but I have no doubt in my mind I could achieve kanzenseiha. I'm really surprised more of the competitors couldn't do it. They must not be as elite as some of us, but that is to be expected as we are hardcore Sasuke fans.

I sincerely believe I could pass the Step Slider. I picked the RE. I just don't think I could figure it out.
But if by the grace of God I cleared RE, the G forces from the Giant Swing would pull me down.
But if by the grace of God I cleared the Giant Swing, there's no way I could stick the Jumping Spider Landing.
But if by the grace of God I somehow cleared the Jumping Spider.......
... But if by the grace of God I could lift the 110 pound wall, I'd surely run out of strength halfway through the Arm Bike......
...But if by the grace of God I could somehow managed the leap from the Bar Glider, I'm sure I'd make it up only 3 meters on the Rope Climb.
So I'm 50% confident I'd clear Stage 3.

I laugh at these people who think they could easily clear stage 3

Realistically: Soritatsu Kabe or Double Salmon Ladder.
I'm 6' 2", so even though I may not have the best technique, I could possibly fluke my way past the Wall.
DSL's a case of 50/50. If I start getting crooked and missing rungs, I'm screwed. That said, I believe that if I were to complete the DSL in good standing, I could complete the rest of the stage.
Absolute potential: Ultimate Cliff Hanger
Yeah, I don't think I could get past even the 2nd ledge. Again, I'm not saying I would LIKELY get to the Ultimate Cliff Hanger. I'm saying that's where I'd get if everything went perfectly right.
