Why don't they just run it like the arm bike? Like after you leave the plateform lower your body below the paddle and do it then when you get close swing your legs up onto the plateform like Yuuji did. I was wondering the exact same thing. I thought that's how you were supposed to do it until Asa started it. Maybe you weren't allowed to?

The only thing I didn't like about the 3rd Stage was the Rumbling Dice. They shoulda had the Floating Boards instead, or the Iron Paddler first and something else 2nd.

I don't get the love of the Floating Boards, especially in place of the Rumbling Dice. Preferences are preferences, but it's not like the Floating Boards were the sole reason no one cleared the UCH in 25. Hanging like that is in no way easy pickings, but when you talk about a prodding obstacle to get through, I'll think of the Floating Boards. I don't even dislike the obstacle, but it doesn't really fit with this version of the stage.

I think the Rumbling Dice track/dice was a bit slick. It seems like it slid quite a bit.
Anyway, the third stage is just about perfect

AM I the only one who thought the Iron Paddler was a good obstacle? Strength draining AND the potential to send someone into the drink?

No I'll agree, it was a good obstacle, sure it was kinda slow to watch but so was the Body Prop too

I think it was a good obstacle, something new for sure. I hope it stays, the third stage has been taking out/putting in obstacles every, if not almost every tournament since 25

I loved this third stage. It's my favorite third stage since 17 honestly. I loved the Iron Paddler, and I can't wait to see the Vertical Limit attempted. Hopefully, they won't change anything about the stage.

The only change I could imagine is bringing in something they didn't have the money to build at the time... probably the doorknobs or the mold to create the Roulette Cylinder. I wouldn't mind if they brought either of those back, although the Rumbling Dice does have a special place in mah heart

I liked Stage 3. The Vertical Limit looks intense and I can't wait to see someone attempt it.

So like how does the vertical limit work? Can you use the holes in the middle to climb across?

No, there's a 1cm ledge the competitors use to hold on to in order to get across. You have to cross it with your palms facing you, as if you were moving while in a chin-up. At first I wondered how you could get from the Curtain Cling to the Vertical Limit, but I didn't notice at first that none of the obstacle are consecutive; you can rest after each obstacle.
