Trivia[]
- Robin Burton became the fifth to cross the Big Balls and the first to conquer the Shake-a-lator. Later on, she and Traci Martin are also the first two contestants to be disqualified in the Wipeout Zone as Traci quit after her backbreaking fall into the water and Robin failed to beat the time limit of 20 minutes.
- Traci Martin is the first and only contestant on Wipeout to win but not finish the Wipeout Zone due to her partner Robert House completing it and their opponents "the I Don'ts" neither being able to finish. This is also the only team episode of Wipeout where only one out of the final four individuals finished the Wipeout Zone.
