I know you meant it but I also want to clarify we're told the rules as well, and in fact we have to be recorded in acknowledging we agree to the rules even

I realize this now :P

In the end it doesn't matter though, My first step was as close to the center I could get without being DQ'd and/or smacking into the blade and it was still turning too much to save it going straight forwards

I'm 136, I think I just gave too brutal of a step lol

Pics are before starting and right before I landed on the second one. http://www.majhost.com/gallery/manaleader/Sasuke/ANW6/anw6yepihadnochance.png

Yeah, I'm not as much pissed about not being shown, as a walk on failing the bridge of blades I knew I wasn't likely to get shown but there were so many good runs that deserved credit and didn't get any

Fair enough, I know on the log I had no clue where exactly I was besides on the course and on the log (as in I knew the general area of where I was but I had no clue where on the track the log was until it stopped)

My left foot was close to the center on the first step, but I must have taken too heavy of a step because when I saw what little footage I had I saw it was too far gone to save, I should have tried the sidestep near the end Mike Needham did

I actually have a few questions here. (I actually competed in St Louis myself, you might remember me as the guy who ran in sunglasses and used my trench coat well at the start line)

1: Were you as disappointed with how badly edited the episode was? The viewers at home got screwed out of a ton of good runs. (And Elet Hall's amazing leap from the second ladder to the platform, I really wanted to relive that)

2: Is it just me or was the Rolling Log fast as f**k, felt like one the most intense ride I've ever been on (and this is coming from someone who has ridden the Zipper at carnivals :P )

3: Any tips for not sucking on the bridge of blades if they return it in the awkward + again. I got smacked right off of it... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3q8ys0W9-b8
