Do you get to test every obstacle you want? Even the Warped Wall which probably doesn't need it? Nope. They won't test the steps or wall since they've already seen them in the other regions. Best advice I can give is to shove yourself near the front so you can try as many obstacles as possible. Philip and I only got to test one obstacle last year because we weren't being assertive enough. Dude sameeeeee, last year in Houston I only tested the red net thingy for the same reason, I wasn't jumping up and down trying to get Trent's attention like a fangirl.

I say it should've had a regional in Texas again, but in Austin. I hoped it would be houston because I live there...

Yup, one of the competitors was wearing the Japanese "frog-like" footwear (I think that's the analogy they used) and Iseman mentioned Sasuke!

I was so afraid David was going to fail after the fiasco this year. And I called the Brent and Kacy thing a months ago. You could tell on their social media pages that they weren't together and we're sharing custody of their dog lol

I'm happy they showed David Campbell! I was afraid they'd skip him. He showed them though; got the 3rd fastest time!!

Add a third ring to the Ring Swing and it feels like it could be a Stage 3 starting obstacle. The Bar Hop looks like a slippery version of the Flying Bar. Oh man, that Log Runner. Beckstrand's backyard course is incredible. AT3 was awesome. I think Kyle Mendoza is the only one to one-step all the steps, so far. Lorin Ball was close last week, but he put both feet on the last step. It's funny when Stillings popped up in Gil's interview then bolted off. I'm pleased that we saw Campbell. It seems he has a different job each year? Sadly, we got our first Captain Tornado. An inspirational video piece about overcoming adversity followed by failing the first obstacle of the first round.

The Log Runner reminds me of the High Rollers from Takeshi's Castle...but much thinner...looks like the rollers lost a LOT of weight since they moved to the USA!

I'll answer for him, Kacy count is under refurbishment or something like that because we in chat all decided to watch an actually good episode of Monday Night RAW...but yeah to get back on topic he should have it updated by Wednesday or Thursday.

LOL Brent basically announced in his fluff piece that they had broken up. They are still friends and business partners as they run their gym together. They still train together, although it's not as much as the show presented. He actually said "train together sometimes" but they glossed over it and just showed them training. I think it's been around 6 months or so but they didn't say. You could tell on their instagrams they weren't a couple anymore. They were rarely together and often not even in the same state for long periods of time. I put together the shared custody thing with their poor dog. I'm super stunned at the husband and wife thing lol. That had to have been a major miscommunication through a translator. Would have loved to see the looks on their faces.

Would have loved to see the looks on their faces. I doubt they knew. I was told it was during Kacy's run that it was brought up (since she ran first). I'm not sure if they said that during Brent's or not. I was shocked as well and knew for a while they weren't together. It's sorta one of those unspoken open secret things. I had no idea they were going to say that in Sasuke. Needless to say I just shook my head since we knew the circumstances and found the wording.. awkward. To be fair.. in Japan they were inseparable.. considering how divorce is seen in Japan it must be weird to see them so close together. But meh it's neither here nor there. Just found the wife announcement soooooo out of place. LOL I guess since she has literally zero notoriety in Japan they needed something to tie her to why she was there. No one knew who she was. At least Brent was known because of his Sasuke history. Drew because well.. Drew. LOL
