Can we count the 17 foot one from ANW3's boot camp? Because that one wins this contest

Just tried out Chris Wilczewski's Warped Wall at the WL, which is more or less an exact replica of the ANW wall, and it's much more intimidating than it looks on TV. I had mondo trouble with it myself, I vote ANW style.

I like the Warped Wall but it would be better if you could automatically pass it after two or three attempts. It wastes time and is boring watching someone trying to climb over and fail and again and again. Or maybe make it less curved and shorter. They would have a ladder up the side that drops down after they have tried enough.

And maybe we can introduce an obstacle consisting of 4 giant inflatable balls people have to jump over, and we can cover obstacles in foam and throw wet sponges at competitors trying to clear the course... Oh wait... this isn't Wipeout... It's Sasuke, people shouldn't be given auto clears if they can't do an obstacle, If you can't clear it, you can't clear it... If you were given an auto clear option why would you attempt the obstacle to begin with?

I like the Cliffhanger but it would be better if you could automatically pass it after two or three attempts. It wastes time and is boring watching someone trying to shimmy over and fail and again and again. Or maybe make it thicker and shorter. They would have a bridge underneath that drops down after they have tried enough.

And you know what else we should do? We should let two people run the course at the same time, the competitor and someone else to provide assistance on some of the obstacles, what could possibly go wrong! (Not really a spoiler, just don't wanna ruin this) Oh... right...

There's a reason why we call ourselves maniacs... I feel this line has been taken out of context since the original... Well in an attempt to salvage the topic... It's kinda hard to say which version is "harder", the Sasuke one is effected by the dirt and dust in the air because of the lot (not to mention it getting tracked onto it by staff and to a lesser degree competitors) and the ANW version is a foot higher (assuming you mean the familiar one). Which ANW version are you talking about... There are at least 5 versions... ANW1: Flat top no overhang ANW2-4 (qualifying) Longer run-up, overhang with little lip on top to grab. ANW2 Boot Camp version ANW3 Boot Camp version ANW4 Vegas Midoriyama version

Well the reason why I made this topic because as I watch Sasuke and ANW it just seems the ANW version (the qualifying version to be exact) is a little harder not by the height but by the shape. I think if the Sasuke version didn't have that curve it would be even more difficult to clear. Not to mention all the other variables you have to account for. Anyway I made this topic to see if I was alone in matter.

I think the Sasuke-style ones (i.e. the ones that have curved down ramp) are a little easier. The curved run-up gives you the right amount of speed at the right time, keeping you from making the common mistake of either sprinting your face and chest right into it, or not having enough momentum. It also puts your body in the right position (chest up, head back, looking towards the top). The only exception is the boot camp/team shuriken one. That joker is just stupid huge.
