Diving Board Trapeze

The Diving Board Trapeze is an obstacle, used as the first obstacle in the Qualifier during episode 8 of Season 2.

It’s two sets of diving boards and trapeze bars that contestants must jump off and swing on across the mud to get to the other side. A set of stairs is placed in between both sets, forcing contestants to climb up and attempt the second set if they fail to cross the first one.

Only two contestants cleared this obstacle:

Shane Harris (who later won that episode, along with his wife Sally Harris)
Brian Schwab

It was replaced by the Sweeper Trees in the next episode.

In Total Wipeout UK, they're called the Traplonkas.
