The unstable Bridge (obstacle after salmon ladder) From the pictures and the ones I have from last year it is tha exact same design, rung wise and support wise. So good luck on Stage 2 this year when 3 of the obstacles are built like complete crap Also shout out to the ascending then descending then descending again swing circle Yea Cameron if you haven't guessed by this post all of the Ninja Warrior Europe (Sweden, Turkey, UK) courses are poorly built by some dodgy sub-contractors, last year the Spin Bridge, Rope Jungle, Salmon Ladder, Unstable Bridge, Floating Boards and Flying Bar were all built wrong if you are comparing them to the US version which based on every obstacle is what I'm basing it on, and they made a cliffhanger that is even wider than ANW's (although it looks really hard so I let them off this one). Couple this with the fact Stage 1's time limit was beaten by 93 seconds by one guy, and someone timed out on the salmon ladder in Stage 2, and you get why I'm annoyed that so far they haven't changed a single thing for the better

What's the big black covered structure in the back of most pics, after the arm-rings where the spider-climb was for S1 ?

Not sure but based off the rest of the course it could be the final obstacle from the regional finals in ANW7, involving a pulley system with 2 rings, either that or they have covered up the "Chimney Climb"... xD

Yeah, most likely figured someone else took the picture and he tweeted it to advertise it or something (I didn't translate the tweet)

So who is going to watch the semis and/or Final? I'm going to both semis and the final barring disasters, got 1/2 days off work Mon & Tue, full day off on Thursday. Would be good to meet up if anyone from the forum is going. e

And hopefully they actually have 4 stages this time instead of combining stage 2 and 3 together. For real,that's just a stupid idea.

Well, I'm in, sat behind the arm.rings again so not the best view. Course layout almost same as series 1, but wind chimes instead of chain swing. Final stage looks same as well,rope jungle, salmon ladder unstable bridge, wall lift, floating boards, cliffhanger, flying bar

I spot the Cycle Road replacing the Doorknob for Stage 2 of the final.

I hope that the Balance Bridge from the Semi's won't be back again.

That's exactly how ANW tapings are lol. I wish they had a timer, in the qualifying rounds. Then again a bunch of the obstacles are upper body.
