That globe/nunchuck thing looks insanely difficult. Also, the course looks great during the day. TAKE NOTES, NBC.
(Feels weird not blaming my problems on G4.)

Big Spoiler Drew Dreschel had the fastest qualifying time, but failed on the pipe slider-rope combo in finals. However, he will apparently be in Sasuke 30.
Flip Failed in qualifying (jump hang, I believe). No word on who had the fastest time in finals. So he busted and boomed? =/

Surprised you don't know lol LOL I know the effort was great but wasn't sure how big of a pain in the a** NBC was going to be about it. This is totally virgin territory we are going through here. What happened this year should be an indication of what's going to happen from now on. Glad they relented... wish it was just more than 1 though. Small victories I guess.

A little more info:
There were 42 qualifying round clears. There were 6 finals clears. A bunch of people failed the spider climb because it had rained right before the competition. They ran 20 walk-ons.

Oh and this is sorta funny... Whenever a woman ran the course they moved the rope on obstacle 2 a foot closer and moved the jump hang tramp in. I guess they really wanted a woman to clear. The spirit of sasuke is truly dead.

To be fair it's not like changes weren't made in Sasuke before, it never came up but for female competitors they took the top off the WW like they did for 14 and younger and 50 and older competitors in Japan. But yeah they didn't make changes like that in St Louis.

As well as adjusting the flow rate of the backstream mid-competition That's a different change, I just meant the change made for female competitors. If you want to go with everything in Sasuke there's a s*** ton of modifications mid tournament.
