Season 3’s Trampo-mean
The Trampo-mean is an obstacle, used as the first obstacle in the Qualifier during episode 7 of Season 3.
It is a trampoline wrapped around two long beams that are pushed and pulled, stretching and compressing it together. On either side of the trampoline are a set of blocks.
This obstacle was created by John Henson, who was then ashamed of it, because it was a pathetically easy obstacle, and many contestants were able to cross it with ease (though some of them failed the dismount). John Anderson hated this obstacle.
Only three contestants who cleared this obstacle were mentioned: Chandra Pugh, Rick Raddatz, and Paige Roddy.
It was replaced by the Smack Wall Sweeper in the next episode.
The components of this obstacle were later used for the Unbalanced Beams in episode 13.
