I can confirm it's not the Butterfly Wall If you're not currently under NDA, could you elaborate on what you think the obstacles are?

Looks like a combination of the Block Run and a vertical section of the plus shaped setup of the Bridge of Blades, looks like 3 squares with an axis in the middle, they look to be separate but I haven't seen them move, I assume you run across the top, so I guess in a way this is sort of Spinning Log + Block Run + Bridge of Blades section.

Wait so are they blocks or like mini bridge of blades all in a row?

On second thought, there's another big hangy object near the landing platform on Obstacle 5.
I'm thinking maybe a Sidewinder R-inspired obstacle?

Apparently there's a big "Forgotten Vegas/Sasuke obstacles" thing going on in regionals this year. We already have had the spinning bridge and broken bridge...and it looks like the Spider Flip is making its triumphant return as Obstacle 5.
It doesn't look as cool only 5 feet above the water though....

It's just pictures as far as I can tell... I notice your post is via mobile - maybe they're showing something different to desktop and mobile users. On my desktop browser window, I see a live video with the caption "WKYC Breaking Live Video."

I don't see that when on my desktop, but could be different.

Going to be attending the taping in Cleveland on Tuesday and just wondering if any SMF members will be there?
Anyone have any idea what hotel they are putting the ninjas up in? Would love to have the opportunity to meet some of the athletes I've been watching for years.

Saw a picture of Obstacle 8
It looks like 4 horizontal cylinders in a row with cliffhanger ledges all over them. I'm assuming they spin, but I'm not sure. Can anyone confirm how they work?
