Well, I'm snowed in and very bored, plus I haven't built anything in awhile, so I built the "crazy" part of the new Cliffhanger and added it on to my Ultimate Cliffhanger, molding the best of both together and creating the Crazy-Ultimate Cliffhanger! Pics are in spoilers in case anyone hasn't actually seen what the new cliffhanger looks like: This is a good view of the add on at the far right, and the original ultimate cliffhanger on the left. For some sense of scale, the gaps on the UCH are 1 meter apart: A view of the new ledge while standing under the original: My first attempt should be tomorrow, considering its my actual training day, although I'm very excited to do it right now, I will wait for the proper time. I will be filming my first attempt(s) without a doubt, and, pass or fail, they should be uploaded by mid-day tomorrow.

Here is the video of my first attempt ever on the obstacle:
Thanks Rider, and yeah I was worried about hitting my head the entire time lol. Luckily I managed to escape unscathed.. for now.

Shinya also already has a video of him on the CCH, as well as the Vertical Limit.

I recently moved and in my garage the rafters are the best width apart for a Crazy Cliffhanger. Gonna make one with a few twists!

One thing I will say, after watching all these videos, is to ensure that you're really jumping from a true long ledge to another long ledge, most people seem to have tiny ledges that allow you to grip both the top and sides of the ledge, making it much easier.

Yeah I was thinking about having 2 long ledges on each side. Nothing fancy and gets the job done. If I want to I could add to it eventually.

Its not easier when you just completed the 1 meter jump to the little ledge, UCH style, and have to stop your sideways momentum (that you wouldn't have if you didn't need to jump) in order to jump perpendicular after. Besides, I've jumped from a long ledge. The wider grip for your arms makes it easier overall.

I might possibly be able to build a Crazy Cliffhanger in my basement also.

I did figure as much, but still commenting on it in general. The shorter ledge forces your arms together at the top, stretching out the lats and limiting overall power. Goes for all small ledges, except I finally saw the UNCLI's and their ledge is just big enough to not have a huge effect, so I am in agreement with theirs on that part.

I might as well post a new video, not one that's almost 2 years old Also sorry about the last part sucking... couldn't swing as much as I wanted since my door frame didn't feel secure so I couldn't do a proper demo there... Besides it feeling not strong enough for swinging, you can kinda hear it creaking when the song I added in to the vid ends

Here's an upload showing the Crazy Cliffhanger's potential if implemented correctly into an entire 3rd stage, things start to get fun:

Does anyone know the specs of the ledges used in the tournaments? Only the width and thickness. I'm not worried about the overall length
