He was the King of ANW at the beginning, but the courses have gotten much more difficult since then. How far do you think he would get now? I think he would finish city qualifiers, fall at finals but qualify for Vegas, then make it to Stage 2.

In his condition now, it's hard to say. I feel he'd fail surprisingly early... maybe the balance obstacle gets him.

I think if he didn't make a mental mistake, probably fail on obstacle 8 in city finals. Maybe make Stage 2. This is predicated on him training and conditioning beforehand though.

First off, he's a stuntman from LA now so he'd be in the LA region...he'd probably fail the wedge, make it to Vegas, and fail the Giant Log Grip, IMHO.

Keep in mind, he WAS a freerunner for a while, then currently he transitioned to a farmer. So adapting back to freerunning and obstacle training will not be easy for him. I'd say he would probably fail the 5th obstacle, qualify, fail the Salmon Ladder, then fail on the JS in Vegas.

While the farmer thing is true let's hypothetically imagine if he was in his prime of Sasuke skill level, he'd probably fail Qualifying or City Finals depending on the course, upper body endurance was always his downfall and ANW has gotten so upper body endurance focused and he'd be done

If he was in Philly's regional this year, he'd be screwed by Rolling Thunder. |

He'd probably qualify for Vegas if LA was his regional. I'm thinking I-Beam Cross fail in qualifier, and Wedge fail in City Finals.

I'd say he would probably fail the 5th obstacle, qualify, fail the Salmon Ladder, then fail on the JS in Vegas. He's still a freerunner but because of his way of living he rarely takes jobs from others now. As far as I'm concerned though he stll has ties with Tempest Freerunning. |

As I said in Reddit, probably the Ultimate Cliffhanger. He struggled with the Shin-Cliff Hanger.

People on this site are always so crazy/wrong about Levi imo.
People adapt as the course adapts. When the shin cliffhanger existed, people struggled with the shin cliffhanger. People were nervous about the normal cliffhanger before that. When the UCH debuted nobody could even come close. What you guys are saying is basically that if Koji Hashimoto retired after 25, he wouldn't even come close to beating anything today. But as we know, he adapted, and was the first to ever beat the UCH in Sasuke 27.
Levi was an absolute beast athlete who dominated without the luxury of full replica training courses to practice on. See the training challenge of ANW 2 boot camp where one person from his team had to go twice, Levi went twice, carrying huge logs between obstacles, and BOTH his runs were the two fastest times, beating people like David Campbell, Brent Steffensen, and Paul Kasmir, and it included upper body obstacles.
If he kept competing and was still interested I have no doubt he'd still be a top guy in the same vein as Flip or Drew.

I have no doubt that Levi could have been a multiple Kanzenseiha & multiple ANW winner... If he ... was still interested |

He could pass stage 2 .if it wasn't for the wedge ..I genuinely feel levi wouldn't like that obstacle. .and if he does get past stage 2 ..he'd probably hit his limit at the uch or hang climb max

I'm in the (apparent) minority that believes Levi would still be one of the most successful competitors today, if he had continued to train and adapt (and compete / care about competing) over time at the intensity he once did. A supremely talented athlete, he was.
