Course Redesigns

[obakemono]

If someone were to achieve total victory in Sasuke 22, how would you remodel the course for Sasuke 23? Go into as much or as little detail as you like.

[SRW]

make sure its completly impossible so no other competitor could take my money again lol.

Seriously though i'd def make the final that spider climb and 3 ropes thing like in the concept.


and that guy with his uber cliff hanger thats cool that be in stage 3 somewhere.

The money they spend making the course is so extremely higher than the prize money...

[SRW]

Probably yeah but I was only joking around:)

Lol thats pretty ironic.

I'd probably only change a few things, and I'd probably make most of the obstacles harder. For instance, I'd probably make the walls of the Jumping Spider as high and as far away as they were in Sasuke 19 or possibly even higher and farther. This may sound odd, but I've always wondered what a Salmon Ladder with uneven rungs would be like, so I'd probably redesign the Salmon Ladder to have uneven rungs so that the competitor would actually have to flop the bar up the rungs like an actual salmon. I'd also put Viking's Rope Maze somewhere after the Salmon Ladder to really torture the competitor's arms. I'd put ulticlifferno4's cliffhanger in place of the current cliffhanger. My ideal difficulty for the course would be to make it hard enough so that only a trully skilled athlete would make it to the final stage around every other tournament. For the final stage, I'd redesign it to be a randomly scattered rock climbing wall with inch-thick handholds for twenty-five feet. Then, I'd put two separate rope climbs, each twenty-five feet in length, forcing the competior to actually swing the first rope over to the second rope in order to switch ropes. The time limit would be 30 seconds, so it would be nearly impossible unless the competitor is trully one of the world's most talented athletes.

Make the 1st stage EASIER.

Make the 2nd stage EASIER.

Make the 3rd stage EASIER.

Add a new stage, call it the 4th stage, make it HARD.

Make the 5th stage however the hell you want it to be.

Yep. Or just swap the first and second stage, minus the Salmon Ladder and your good.

Sasuke needs to return back to the old way imo. It shouldn't get harder.

For the final stage...i like the rock climbing wall idea for like 25 feet, but then 3 ropes 25 feet each like the one's from the final review video. To have in total a 100 foot final stage in 45 seconds...b/c 30 would be ridiculous. I have no idea what i'd do with the other stages. I'd only leave the Salmon Ladder and change it in some way and then of course ulticlifferno4's cliffhanger...conpletely insane. Everything else would just be completely new and so hard that all 100 would fail stage 1. I'd just leave the kookyness to Monster 9.

[obakemono]

I'd probably make it more of a 4->5, 13->14 kind of transition rather than a total redesign.

First stage, only Jumping Spider and Warped Wall would remain, with perhaps the Log Grip or that new obstacle if it's good. Jumping Spider would be 19's, and possibly have a section that goes directly upwards similar to the old final stage. At some point the Cannonball Run from Viking would be included. There would also be an obstacle that requires some grip strength to pass. The stage would ideally go in a completely straight line like the old days and be a little shorter.

Second stage would be the biggest change, I would make it considerably harder. Salmon Ladder, Metal Spin and Wall Lift remain. The Arm Bike would be in there, and perhaps the Balance Tank or another arm-based obstacle. Japantv's idea of the Rope Maze is a good one but I think it might be a bit too difficult in combination with the Salmon Ladder. The time limit would be low enough that you have to do the Salmon Ladder pretty quickly to stand a chance.

Third stage would have the same vague layout, with one important difference: the Arm Rings would be at the end. Like at Muscle Park, they would be a lot more difficult at the end when you're tired, and then the jump is a b****, but there's less chance of it failing like the Gliding Ring. The first three obstacles would be more difficult. Body Prop is back. Globe Grasp is straightened. Jumping Bars would have 6 bars again, and the Spider Flip would be 2.5 metres.

Final stage, I have no clue.

[SuperTiger]

What about a upward globe grasp...wouldn't that be harder than like a downward one or a straight one

Thats ironic you say that as I once suggested it for stage 3 and peeps said it wouldnt work lol.

[arsenette]

Personally if it doesn't have sharks with friggin' lasers on their friggin' heads I don't want to watch it LOL j/k

I like Ube's idea of shelving Sasuke and starting a new event entirely that has nothing to do with Sasuke. Heck I'd like Viking back without the math problems and stupid head do rags

[bigblind168]

MC Nagano

personally i didnt mind the bandannas

[The Chief]

What about like...(insert good obstacle course show here).


Now,
Lower the Globe and Release the Meteor.

[VenusHeadTrap]

I would barely change the course since it is oh so unbearably hard already. If someone beat it? oh well, it is unlikely that someone could follow exactly in their foot steps.

Carrying the weighted buckets while dodging hammers? That is so ridiculously dangerous... especially given how high the hammers would have to swing in order to not clip the pole holding the buckets?

That's a terrible idea, SOLELY from a safety standpoint.

[bigblind168]

safety inst inmind when i made that, just extreme diffiulty

See, I liked the mental challenges (not the Bio Clock, though). They were unique and it made Viking stand out as more than just a test of raw physical talent, even if the questions were pretty basic.
