Hi, I just thought that I’d give everyone some random information from the new tournament:

• All the numbers were drawn by a lottery, except #98 #99 and #100 which were given to AKIYAMA Kazuhiko, NAGANO Makoto and URUSHIHARA Yuuji respectively.
• Some old obstacles made returns in this tournament including the Rolling Log, the Jump Hang and the Circle Slider (which eleminated NAGANO Makoto).
• 11 competitors completed Stage 1: Jun Sato, Kenji Takahashi, Levi Meeuwenberg, Yoshiyuki Okuyama, Koji Hashimoto, Brian Orosco, Toshihiro Takeda, Lee Enchi, Hitoshi Kanno, Shingo Yamamoto,Yuuji Urushihara.
• Out of the 11 people to clear Stage 1 only 5 completed Stage 2. The obstacles that elimated most people were the Balanace Tank, and the new Double Salmon Ladder.
• None of the 5 who conquered Stage 2 could make it past the new Ultimate Cliffhanger, which lives up to it’s name having roughly 6 ledges, the first to are coming together at an acute point and the wall at that part is also angled back.
• After it was over TBS showed tester proving that Stage 3 can be beaten but they are keeping the Final Stage a secret
