I can't believe they nerfed it. You'd think in a renewal they would leave it the same or make it harder. What the hell? I'm not too mad about the results, someone failed it and it did shake up a few people, but why did they have to nerf the log itself? Seems counterproductive.

Happens a lot. The Dragon Glider and the Reverse Conveyor as far as I can tell are easier now too

The only reason I can think of is that the log may have had more of a chance of getting stuck on the longer track.
I agree that it kind of ruined Stage 2 though. The whole novelty of doing the Salmon Ladder dizzy was less of an issue now, and the time limit was way more lenient given that it took a good 5-10 seconds less to complete the obstacle. Combine that with the fact that competitors have actually trained for the log and we’re back to square 1 of Stage 2 being way too easy and stale.
I just hope the high clear rate convinces them to make some sort of change next time, even just a reduction in time limit to 90-95 seconds would suffice. It’s unlikely knowing Inui, but Sasuke 36’s clear rate was higher and that prompted them adding a new obstacle.
