I saw it from the road last night an it looked really impressive with the lights and everything. Last year it was all basically crammed into a large median, but this is a much better setting.
I am jacks extreme jealousy...

Sounds like an odd variation of the Ensuitobi (g4 name: Cone Jump)

I think the "log grip lost weight" should be called Flying Pillar based on the G4 name of the similar Kunoichi obstacle.
Also... WTF on the tilting danchigaubou thing lol
Besides that, steps seem to be getting easier with every region, I am not against this... lol

No problem I'm sure there are more videos I just did a quick cursory look at twitter and found it pretty easy. If anyone else would like to take a crack at it feel free. So far seems only 5 have gone and 1 clear. No names just that. If they "started" at 8pm. yeah.. it's 10:30 and only 5 ran.. going to be a long night.. LOL Btw update on the time (and I'm sure it's the same with all regions)

Oh come on... they could get their s*** together in baltimore, why couldn't they do that in miami... I mean sure they had to do a double run in baltimore but there was a steady stream of runs... they started resetting early stuff before the competitors even finished often times (Like at the circle cross they bring up the downhil jump board)
EDIT: Yes I can confirm the collecting stock cheering and doing the intro for a long time

New update with no names (yet). Edit again (when I asked if any names we know) Edit: No idea if anyone can identify people from photos. Seems this "might" have been one of the walk on clears: Twitter link

Miami looks like a fun course. Really love how they are bringing back some really old school obstacles from Japan and then some new fusion obstacles that merge a couple of old school obstacles or create something entirely new. Very cool. Wish I could try them all!

First guy who ran, cleared. I can't see these pics right now for some reason but he was a skinny short white dude in a green shirt. I watched maybe 15 and saw like 2-3 clears.

New update. Maybe someone can decipher who this guy was from last year? Spoiler just had our third clear, the guy that ran the course last year with headphones and fell at the spin bridge.

Thomas Hall and Sean Morris were both in the Southeast and failed the Spin Bridge in Vegas.

So the third obstacle is a pair of tilting hot dogs?

Obviously I knew it'd be one of the two, but I can't remember what everyone looks like

Sean Morris was the guy with headphones. Lol I was more worried about the ipod than him failing.

The "log grip" has handlebars! It's designed to be a non-factor I'm surprised at how many clears they have already, might be indicative of course difficulty being too low. Don't know why they're making the steps easier. There were only 11-12 clears in Venice after the first night.
