I hope those second obstacle walls pivot, otherwise that's super easy

Clearly they're giving Denver an easy course, and it will be balanced out by the snow.

I think the transition to the cargo net is a lot more tricky then other regions. We will see.

I hear they are going to just leave the snow and count the stairs to the starting platform as an extra obstacle! LOL! I feel bad for the walk-ons. Attachment Deleted

I knew it snowed but seeing the pic is holy s***...
I think those special wet weather rules for the Warped Wall might come into play...

Go back to Denver, they said. It'll be safe in May, they said. I knew it snowed but seeing the pic is holy s***... I think those special wet weather rules for the Warped Wall might come into play... You mean the debut of the Great Wall. I personally would think it would be hilarious. Either that or stick the button at the top of the wall edge, and if you hit it, you clear.

No, I mean there is seriously a system for wet weather regarding the Warped Wall in ANW, they went over it with us in St Louis if the rain didn't stop and we had to run in light rain. The Warped Wall will be tarped off when not attempted. Clear the 5th obstacle, come down to a designated spot between obstacle 5's end and the WW, the timer will be stopped, they will take the tarps off the Warped Wall and once that's clear the clock will be restarted from where it left off (so the clock will resume rather) and then you attempt the WW

And to think, they could just avoid this by holding the competition during months/in locations that don't have s***ty weather. But where's the fun in that?

Indoors maybe? =/

That'd be neat, but I'd settle for just having the competition a little later in the year, and in nicer locations. ANW4 was the best setup in my opinion.

The 3 walls are now apparently only 2 walls with a much bigger gap. And I guess the spinning log is dropping testers like flies.

Yes both r correct. All the testers went slow the log and most fell

Not sure where to post this, so please move it if it's not in the right place Jenn Brown posted a photo of a bunch of competitors on Instagram - I can't link it on my mobile, but it shows Lance Pekus, Jessie Graff, Noah Kauffman, Brian Arnold, Isaac Caldiero and Laura Kisana.

I doubt they'll show it if true, but can anyone who was in Denver confirm/deny this rumor? "this year a famous competitor stood atop the WW with a visibly wet spot from touching the water and was not DQed."
