Damn the obstacles get better every year. Except the Black Label one. A set of stairs and a rail? Way to be un-creative

Went last year, missed it this year. Stoked to see that Jani won again! He was the clear winner last year. That guy is so underrated. I watched him pull the most proper switch tre down FOundations obstacle last year...while BA broke 3 boards trying a regular tre, that was mediocre. Not taking anything from BA...BUT give Jani some more coverage..guy is an animal
