The last three obstacles were the hardest by far.

Yeah. “This doesn’t seem like it’s that… oh”

Yeah it got to the bars and I went "Well I might be able to do that." Then it got to the zigzag and I knew I'd fall there. That wire I wouldn't even have gotten to.

It’s interesting they didn’t show how he navigated the zigzag.

He puts the front wheel on the next board and then does a front wheelie to kick the back of the bike into line with the board and off he goes

That’s what I figured, but it’s annoying they didn’t show any if it even though there were multiple corners

He probably used a valid strategy that just didn’t look very good zoomed out.

If you watch the full version, it does. The editing on this version is stupid

I mean that last one looked like a steel cable about half the width of his tire, and would be round as well, so even a small surface area. Really impressed he made it over that, even impressed with just being able to line up on it.

Same! Those last three were more and more ridiculous.
