Just for fun. Before you just automatically click Kanzenseiha, don't. Also, if you want to go into detail for each obstacle, go for it.

Lets see......
Godantobi - Unless i pull off an akiyama, there's no way i'm failing that.
Rolling Escargot - I would make it through about 3/4 of the way and jump to the mat.
Spin Bridge - I have very good speed so I shouldn't have any trouble failing this.
Jump Hang Kai - The only way I fail this is if I don't hit my feet on the trampoline correctly.
Ni Ren Soritatsu Kabe - Clear.
Tarzan Rope - This doesn't even need an explanation....
Rope Ladder - I would be a little bit slow on the ladder, but i'd make it through.
Cross Slider - Unless my hands slip off, its a clear.
Swap Salmon Ladder - I would have a little bit of trouble with this obstacle, but I would be able to clear it.
Unstable Bridge - There's only 1 bridge instead of two this time, so i can definitely clear this obstacle.
Spider Walk - Should be able to clear, unless my hands or feet slip off the walls.
Backsteam - Same as above, unless I go very slow on this obstacle, in other words, I'll clear unless I don't swim fast enough.
Passing Wall - Yeah............I would definitely have trouble with this obstacle, but i would pull a shingo and make it through.
Rumbling Dice - Unless I pull off a shingo, there's no way I could fail this obstacle.
Iron Paddler - I would spend a lot, a lot of time just trying to clear this obstacle but i would be able to clear with my arms a little bit sore.
Crazy Cliffhanger - The first 3 ledges, I would be able to make it through......now unless I get really lucky on the jump, this is where i fail.
Curtain Cling - If i somehow make it to the Curtain Cling, I might be able to make it but my arms would be like very tired if i clear the obstacle.
Vertical Limit - Yeah.........the only way i'm clearing this obstacle is if my arms hold on to the ledge long enough before it gives up.
Pipe Slider - There's no way i have a chance at clearing the pipe slider. I might fail halfway through, just from being dead out on my arms, and even if i make it all the way to the end, i either fail like takeda in 8, or i attempt the jump and don't even make enough momentum to reach the platform.
Final Stage - If i somehow even clear the pipe slider, there is just no way I can climb a 23 M rope in 35-40 seconds.
Kanzenseiha - Yeah........not happening....................in my lifetime......unless superman comes in....

I was going to click Kanzenseiha but then you told me not to... That spin bridge. I just can't see myself clearing that one on my first go. Each ball is a different variable.

The Spin Bridge isn't about speed.

Might as well give my own response: Godantoni: Clear. Simple enough as long as I'm not TOO nervous at the start line. Rolling Escargot: Probably failing this. Unless this is as easy as four consecutive cartwheels, I'm in the drink. Overall, 30% of clearing. Spin Bridge: Keeping your knees close to a locked position while running, hitting the absolute top surface of each ball seems to be the way to clear this. If I somehow survived the snail, I think I COULD clear this, but that's a very big could. Jump Hang Kai: I honestly would Bunpei this and Ryo across. Not saying I'd definitely clear this, but not the hardest of the obstacles IMO. Ni Ren Soritasu Kabe: The first four obstacles aren't huge energy drainers, and I have a warped wall (Built to specifications) in my backyard. Check it out in "Training". I think I'd clear this. Tarzan Rope & Rope Ladder: If I somehow managed to pass the Rolling Escargot and Spin Bridge, along with 1-shotting both walls, I think I'd be in the clear.
(I still chose Rolling Escargot overall)
Cross Slider: Tricky obstacle. I don't know what to expect being in that position while moving downward. Can't really give a confirmation on this one. Swap Salmon Ladder: Splash. I have yet to build any type of Salmon Ladder. Unstable Bridge: If for some God forsaken way I cleared the SSL, then I'd clear this. Spider Walk: I've had enough practice with this, clear. Backstream: I'm a good swimmer, and if I paced myself on the earlier obstacled I'd have enough stamina to demolish this obstacle. Passing Wall: It's not happening.
Rumbling Dice: Clear? My arms would be shot after this. Iron Paddler - Pipe Slider: I'll save anyone reading this time, fail.
Final Stage & Kanzenseiha: Maybe some day...

I've tried a Rolling Escargot and I just can't get the hang of it for some reason. Other than that, I'm confident I could make it to at least the Crazy Cliffhanger.

I'd like to think I'd make it to the spin bridge at least. Lol

These threads are always dumb.
First stage: I'd have trouble with Rolling Escargot, maybe the spin bridge, and the Jump Hang Kai considering what happened to me at ANW4.
Second Stage: Swap Salmon Ladder is the only thing I'd have trouble on - though I don't think I would be able to pass it and try everything else.
Third Stage: I could probably get to Crazy Cliff-hanger. No chance in hell I'd pass it.

I'm just saying, they usually turn into arguments. "Nu uh! There's no way you could beat the UCH" "No bro I totally can!".

I swear we have two of these threads every Sasuke.. dating all the way back to 2008. It's also annoyingly pointless as Sasuke is as unpredictable as our own future.
But anyway, not to be a stick in the mud. I would get as far as the jump hang kai if I was lucky.

If I managed to get passed the escargot I see myself failing the Spin Bridge in a spectacular manner.

Maybe I'm over-confident on my skills but here it goes: Spoilered because some people's results are kinda spoiled in my post. Godantobi: I've become good at this. Rolling Escargot: I'll use Ryo's technique. Spin Bridge: I'm about Kinnikun's height and size, and I think he had the best technique, so I'll use that. Jump Hang Kai: The only way I'd fail it is if my tramoline jump got messed up. Double Warped Wall: I've made it 2 inches from the top of an ANW Warped Wall, so not many issues here. "Final Climb": Unless I'm Jake Smith or Wakky I'll have no issues here
I'm guessing if I cleared I would clear with like 5 seconds left.
Second Stage: Cross Slider: Just hold that stance. Swap Salmon Ladder: I am REALLY good at the transfers on the SL so I'll be fine. Unstable Bridge: lol. Spider Walk: I think I could possibly fail there, my hips always lock up when I do the Spider Walk, but if I push through I'll be fine. Backstream: I can swim 25 yards in 13 seconds so I could beat this in like 7 seconds with the water going against me. Passing Wall: More than likely I'll time out here. I struggle with overhead pressing 55 pounds.

I'm probably the least sporty person on these boards. I voted Godantobi. I suppose I might just be able to clear it if I'm lucky, but I can literally guarantee I would fail the Rolling Escargot. In fact, I would probably fall of it before it even started rolling.

Even though I've cleared the nasty ANW-sized warped wall before at Chris W.'s place, I still think that by the time I got to it in this course I would be too tired to get up it. The only way I could make it up is from the confidence I'd get after the first smaller wall. I have the endurance to run a marathon, but I am not quite conditioned for that explosive movement after being that tired.
That is... if I get past the Spin Bridge first. I have a feeling I would overthink it and as a result fail horribly. Maybe I'd clear another version, but I could easily see myself slipping up on this one.
Second stage? Thank goodness they got rid of the NORMAL Salmon Ladder, I have much more confidence in my jumps across rungs than I do up them like the original. LOL, if anything this is a rare case where they actually made it easier for me. Everything else I could see being tricky but my endurance should serve me well. I am definitely strong enough now to lift the third wall.
Third Stage, the Rumbling Dice is deceptively draining but I personally wouldn't be too worried about it. Who know about the Iron Paddler, can't really say how I'd do until I feel it myself. Crazy Cliffhanger... I'd have to be Crazy to say I could clear that. However, I would absolutely LOVE to try the Curtain Cling, not that I would necessarily clear it but its always looked like fun (in an agonizing way). Same with Vertical Limit. Pipe Slider? I probably take a drink here too.
Here's to a good 2013 of training so next competition I'll be able to say I could make it further!

I said Rolling Escargot since that's taken out a few of the top competitors in the past, and I am not on their levels (yet). There's a slight chance that I'd make it past that (I tend to underestimate my capabilities in these threads ), but I'd probably then fall somewhere on the Spin Bridge for similar reasons. If I was having a really lucky day and managed to make it to the Jump Hang Kai, I think I'd have a 50/50 chance of clearing the First Stage (most likely failing it by a time out, unless I messed up on the trampoline). If I miraculously made it to the Second Stage, I'm completely unsure where I'd fail from there on out (though the jump on the CCH in Stage 3 would be the absolute farthest I would possibly get, and there's a very, very slim chance of me getting to there).

Godantobi: Pretty sure I can pass this, this is one of the few obstacles I have made some replica of and played on it. Rolling Escargot: I don't know, this is a wild card, depends on how my luck is. Probably about a 40 percent chance of me passing this. Spin Bridge: If I do pass the RE, I'm pretty sure I'd go out here. I just feel myself slipping, spinning the ball, and falling in the drink. Jump Hang Kai: If I DO pass the Spin Bridge. There's about a 10 percent chance I'd get to this obstacle, I'd probably fail it. I don't have much experience with trampolines. Ni Ren Soritasu Kabe: About a 5 percent chance I'd get here. And if I did, I'd probably time out Tarzan Rope: If I did get over the walls, I think I'd run out of time. Cross Slider: Maybe a 1% chance I'd get to the second stage. I'd pass this obstacle Swap Salmon Ladder: Most likely fail. From now on, it's if I actually got to the obstacle. Anything past this is under 1 percent of me making that far. Unstable Bridge: The S28 I would probably clear. 80% Spider Walk: 80% Backstream: Being a swimmer, this would be easy, 95% Passing Wall: 90% Rumbling Dice: 75% Iron Paddler: 50% Crazy Cliffhanger: 1% Curtain Cling: 5% Vertical Limit: 5% Pipe Slider: 5% Final Stage: ? Kanzenseiha: If was to compete in S28, about a 0.01% chance of me winning!

I have no idea how to approach the Rolling Log other than to press up with your arms and down with your feet as hard as possible. Also, I have huge feet so they may not fit in the footholds...
The Spinning Bridge would probably take me out if the RE somehow didn't. I wouldn't be able to be very light on my feet and I'd probably slip on the first step like Shingo, Akiyama, and many others did.
Yeah, and there's no way I can hold on after grabbing net on the Jump Hang.
I said the RE.
