Just wondering, under pure speculation, how the Sasuke All-Stars would fair trying the ANW4 prelims and Vegas finale. What are your thoughts? Here are mine:
Nagano Honestly, I think he'd fail the Jump Hang. A guy of his stature might not be able to handle the ~10 foot distance. And IIRC, he's failed non-Jumping Spider trampoline type things three times before (ANW2 course and Sasuke 10, 25).
Takeda + Shingo IMO, they would have the best performance at ANW. They got the body height and weight to do the trampoline jumps, and I would see them atop the tower at the prelims/semis. As for Vegas, I'm not sure yet because we haven't seen much video of competitors running it. And amidst the rumors that have been spread about the Stage 2 results, who knows how they'd actually do.
Bunpei Salmon Ladder
Yamada Warped Wall
Akiyama Spinning Log
Yuuji He'd own everything (again)--duh.

Honestly I think Bunpei would fail the WW if he got there.

Akiyama would fail the warped wall, too. All the obstacles before it, no problem.

Assuming everyone of them made it to Vegas;
Nagano Jumping Spider
Takeda Doorknob Grasper
Shingo Metal Spin
Yamada Warp Wall (especially since rumor has it on ANW 4 Finale its bigger)
Akiyama Warp Wall
Bumpei Spinning Bridge

Nagano Jump Hang - He's just so short and he's had trouble with this obstacle in the past.
Takeda Ultimate Cliff Hanger - I don't see him having a problem with earlier obstacles/stages.
Yamamoto Transition in between two obstacles - He has the strangest failures by far.
Yamada Warped Wall - What happened to this guy.
Akiyama Spinning Log - I don't think he has the best balance.
Shiratori Salmon Ladder - Sure, why not.

The American course is the junior version of Midoriyama...
I can't believe you guys are selling the All-Stars so short here.
Most of them would do very well, and Nagano would certainly go all the way to the Ultimate Cliff Hanger or beyond (if that obstacle is in the ANW4 Vegas Final Stage, I do not know as I have avoided spoilers and am watching week to week.)

Without spoiling anything, I'm going to warn you... it's no junior version... that's for certain.

Nagano Akiyama Spinning Log - I don't think he has the best balance. That's strange, I've always believed that Akiyama has great balance. For Nagano, it depends on the height of the Jumping Spider/Jump Hang. If he clears that, then he would probably make it to the UCH. Akiyama would likely fail the Warped Wall. I doubt he'll ever fail a trampoline obstacle again. Takeda, easy clear. Likely the UCH. Shingo, easy clear. Stage 3, I think. Possibly the UCH. Bunpei, easy clear. Dunno about stage 2 though. Yamada, most likely the Warped Wall. Either that or the Spin Bridge.

The jump hang on the qualifiers wouldn't be a problem for Nagano. The distance is laughable.

In the particular hypothetical universe I chose to reference, he got them, laddy. Oh did he ever.
