Hurtles

The Hurtles are an obstacle, used as the fourth obstacle in the Qualifier of Season 2. It was interchanged with the Log Roll as the first post-Big Balls obstacle throughout the season.

It is nine hurdles moving up and down that contestants must hop over. The entire platform that the hurdles are set over is slightly tilted to the right.

It was replaced by the Trampoline Sweeper, the Shake-a-lator, the Organ Grinder, and the Beaten Path in the next season.

Other Season Appearances[]

Season 4[]

Winter[]

In Season 4's Winter Wipeout, the Hurtles made an appearance as the last part of the Seven Letter Word. There are three hurdles placed on top of a "U". If they wipeout here, they must try again. When dismounting from the "O" to the "U", they must land at the start of the "U" behind the first hurdle; if they somehow land in between the first and second hurdle, they must go back to the start of the "U". In some episodes, the second hurdle was deactivated.

Spring/Summer[]

In Season 4's Spring and Summer Wipeout, the Hurtles appeared as the first part of the Scareousel. Contestants must grab a red dangler and swing over three hurdles to the red platform. If they wipeout, they must head back to the beginning.
