I've given this some thought. I know we guys all love the pipe slider as a stage 3 ender ,and it is rather iconic. I just feel that it's time for a change. .especially with a new era. .. I really feel an obstacle like the Walking bar or wedge type of obstacle from anw with be a better suite. ... there's even this obstacle called the clacker from anw8s city finals that could be an epic end to stage 3 .. it would just switch the game a little.

Everyone seems to want the Flying Bar as the end obstacle again.

I'm certainly not in favour of that mate .. I mean let's look at it ..that obstacle is basically the Anw equivalent of the pipe slider ..it's vintage anw (even though it was a sasuke original ) and in recent tournaments it's proved to be shifty lol .. I feel like to put it at the end would just seem to predictable .

I really do think the cracker would be a type of obstacle that would be interesting for competitor's to tackle in the end . It's just got that sense of epic on it when someone's on it .. like a modified rumbling dice kind of thing.

Would be crazy to have a stupidly hard obstacle after the UCCH/VLKaiKai combo, and I love the tension and drama of the final jump of the Pipe Slider so I'd be happy if they kept it. Maybe put a proper stopper on the end though and widen the gap another 2ft of so to keep it interesting!

While I'd like to see the Flying Bar at the end of Stage 3 again, I was a fan of the Gliding Ring and thought the Bar Glider was a good idea in theory, the Pipe Slider follows the timeless adage: if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Given how difficult the back half of Stage 3 is, the Pipe Slider is pretty evil again in and of itself just to do after the UCCH + VLK combo.

Maybe pull a PROTO SASUKE and do a iron paddler equivalent? It's an idea anyway.

I do still like the Pipe Slider, or some variation of it (one could almost argue the Flying Bar is a variation of the Pipe Slider if they squint their eyes hard enough), as the final Stage 3 obstacle. I think mainly just cus of all the iconic heartbreaks we've had on it. I have always thought the Body Prop would be a cool final obstacle too though -- would be cool to see epic failures where they get all shaky and what not.
I do however think it's time to swap out the Cliffhanger (* runs and hides, don't hate me! *), or at least make it a tad easier, or something.

I'd like the Gliding Ring to come back, but made so you have to push the ring down the track rather than it...gliding . Basically I'm describing the Ring from 21 but not botched.

I'd rather they just start over and try something different. Putting the flying bar in the ANW position isn't creative..

I mean it's not like it was ANW's idea, they did it in Sasuke 25 and 26 but no one made it there (And Monster9 knew they were going to die so they wanted Sasuke 27 to end on a good note so they nerfed stage 3) Personally I prefer the Flying Bar there but considering the kind of s*** they pulled with the construction I'd just say leave the Flying Bar to ATS, they build it better than TBS's crew... As for something new? I'm open to it, the Pipe Slider is iconic but at the same time it's had its time plenty of time over, it's a technique obstacle and at this point the people who get there know the technique. Although we need a new concept there, Gliding Ring was easy (barring the broken version from 21 which wouldn't be a bad obstacle if they could intentionally break it like that), Bar Glider was a nerfed Pipe Slider to ensure a final stage, Flying Bar would be fine if TBS built it better, I mean they could take some cues from ANW and have something like the Walking Bar or Wedge but I really don't trust their crew to build those in a non-BS way lol

If you guys are that keen on the pipe slider then why not just replace it with the modified version. ..it was in the city finals. .and I'm not sure the name but I think Britten went down on it .

It should be,if ANW allows it,the Stair Hopper.It alone took out so many competitors in the ANW 8 Philly City Finals,including Geoff Britten.

It's kind of silly to talk about removing an obstacle that wasn't attempted for two tournaments. About replacing me: I am even more iconic than the pipe slider. The problem with me is I am pretty much luck based obstacle (Drew failed me this time, even he had good technique). The previous versions of cliffhanger were more about strength. So when flying bar and cliffhanger are easier (or at least less luck based), there will be more people on the last obstacle. The third stage ender should be something like tha second stage beginner.

Maybe pull a PROTO SASUKE and do a iron paddler equivalent? It's an idea anyway. Or how about the iron paddle bar from anwππππ

Yeah something like the stairs hopper ..that was straight up savage and the clacker was badass ..if I was in charge of obstacles those are the 2 top contenders for me ...if sasuke would have the rights to use them .

You have edit button for a reason. No need to post 2 pictures in 2 posts.
As for S3's ending, Pipe Slider is really the best as the last obstacle, especially after UCCH + VLK combo. No need to DELETE something that isn't broken.

I think a combination of the Flying Bar & Pipe Slider would be nice. For example, you have a Pipe Slider, then transfer to another rail similar to the Flying Bar.
