Banzai 90

Banzai 90 was a series of events in Kinniku Banzuke. In this event, teams of 6 competitors must co-operate using strength, logic, and teamwork.

Premise
The basic objective was to launch the other members of the team upwards, who would then grab onto each of the four cylindrical padded objects colored red, green, yellow, and blue respectively, that were suspended from the ceiling structure.

All of the cylinders required a member to be attached simultaneously; as such, as the event progressed, the team would shrink in size, adding an element of strategy and planning. After all four objectives have had contact made, the respective team members must cling on for an additional length of time, amounting to ten seconds, in order to achieve kanzenseiha. All of this must be achieved within a time limit of 90 seconds.

Should a teammate lose their grip and fall, the event resumes, forcing the team to try to throw them back onto the cylinder in what time still remains.

Version 1
The first version of the event was the most basic, adhering to the rules above. The order of the heights of the four cylinders, from highest to lowest, went from red, yellow, green, and blue respectively. Most teams would start by throwing their first teammate to the highest log and then work their way down the lower ones in order. As the members decreased, it became harder to launch teammates up to the cylinders, hence the need for this strategy.

Version 2
The second version of the event was much trickier. In this variant, the yellow and green cylinders were attached to each other on a see-saw scaffolding not unlike what was used for the Nejireta Kabe, the red cylinder was placed within a motor that also had the cylinder hang freely, and the blue cylinder freely rotated when grabbed.

This version proved much harder than the first and required a different strategy. Teams that attempted to go for the red cylinder first as before ended up wasting too much time, and thus the focus shifted to getting teammates onto the yellow-green cylinder see-saw, which also carried a form of difficulty as after the first log of this set-up was mounted, not only would it be on a slant, but the other cylinder would be higher up. That being said, due to the nature of the movement of the red cylinder, this technically meant that with the team's throwing power reduced to three, it was still possible to time a launch capable of throwing a teammate onto the cylinder, with the blue cylinder once again remaining the last part to attempt.

Ultimately, this version was not defeated prior to Kinniku Banzuke's cancelation.
