My major gripes were all the cut and digested runs and of course stage 2, but not as much as 29.<br /><br />Tomohiro has been my favorite for a while know and i was so happy for him. Usually he would have great runs but then make a dumb mistake like 21 or "yuujiing" the unstable bridge or fail at the very end of stage 1. <br /><br />Also, think this final stage is so tough that it is going to take multiple attempts by someone to pass. I also think all things considered Ryo has a really good chance.<br /><br />THanks for the post!<br />-Daniel<br /><br />SuperDaniel https://www.blogger.com/profile/00138439895903397442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7257291297969412550.post-48286091488800715322014-08-11T19:58:37.961-04:002014-08-11T19:58:37.961-04:00Awesome work on the Final Stage and the overall th...Awesome work on the Final Stage and the overall thoughts on this. It did feel like the pacing was off with so many fast forwards, especially when dealing with the cutting of 2 competitors that have been strong draws from before (Shunsuke and Lee). Hopefully this will be fixed in the next tournament.<br /><br />As far as TBS needs to be mentioned....ABOUT FRIGGIN' TIME!!! After all is said and done, this is a good tournament, but thankfully, with a new company and all behind the scenes, we can get much better results.GTONekohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07196610134152705678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7257291297969412550.post-33416458734260979132014-08-08T21:55:47.942-04:002014-08-08T21:55:47.942-04:00Poor Ryo... if anyone deserves to win, it's hi...Poor Ryo... if anyone deserves to win, it's him. I had been thinking he would have no trouble on the 3rd stage if he could clear the stupid Backstream and still have enough left for the walls. When I saw everyone whiff on the Crazy Cliffhanger in SASUKE 28, I immediately thought of Ryo, since he had made the UCH look simple back in SASUKE 27. That said, so did Yuuji, but I still had high hopes for Ryo if he ever returned to Stage 3.<br />I kind of figured, though, that this final wasn't really suited to him. He didn't strike me as someone well built for the Spider Climb. Granted, he proved me wrong, but I wasn't expecting him to clear. Just didn't have enough left. Hope he can make it back there in SASUKE 31.<br /><br />He'll have a much better chance at doing just that if they revamp the 2nd Stage. Aside from the walls and the Cross Slider, I don't much like any of the obstacles. Bring back the Metal Spin, get rid of the pool. I don't have such an issue with the Spider Drop, but I'd like to see something with more of a capacity to fail, not a time waster. As for the Swap Salmon Ladder and the all-too-stable unstable bridge, I say cut them both. I had an idea for a salmon ladder where you go up one side and down the other. I got the idea from an early blog, where Takeda jumped down the rungs on a Salmon Ladder replica. ishouldgetoutmorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04798147433886375981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7257291297969412550.post-29049154877423933272014-08-07T22:12:08.096-04:002014-08-07T22:12:08.096-04:00I need to do a real comment on this, but a) if Ryo...I need to do a real comment on this, but a) if Ryo ever wins with those shoes, I hope there's no shoe controversy a la Yuuji in 24 considering what type of shoes they are (and, yes, I know that was bull back then since that's what everyone had on) and b) I can't remember what button it is, but you can turn off the Nico comments and just get a clean screen (thank all that's holy for that! I know that's what makes Nico different, but it's annoying, imho.).jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04426620625341684543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7257291297969412550.post-8839437744199429892014-08-06T15:53:47.728-04:002014-08-06T15:53:47.728-04:00Glad to hear that TBS is finally admitting what we...Glad to hear that TBS is finally admitting what we've known for a while: that Sasuke is just not that known anymore. Now that they realize that, they should put a lot more effort into publicity.<br /><br />I agree about the second stage needing a reboot at this point. <br /><br />Finally, if he works on his Spider Climb technique, I can easily see Tomohiro Kawaguchi achieving kanzenseiha.thebobmasterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10661996765711523543noreply@blogger.com
