His run in the semifinals was digested, but it was shown that he failed the fifth obstacle, Slingshot, and did not advance to the finals.
American Ninja Warrior 14[]
Alex came back to compete during the final night of qualifying. His run was cut, but he once again finished the course, placing 13th despite failing the Mega Wall. He later competed in the second semifinal episode. His run there was digested, but he shockingly failed the balance obstacle, the Spinning Bridge. Thus he was once again eliminated during the semifinals.
American Ninja Warrior 16[]
Alex returned in the second qualifier. His run was digested, but once again cleared the qualifying course, taking a selfie at the top of the Warped Wall. He placed 5th overall. He later competed in the final semifinal episode racing against Branden McWilliams. The race was digested, but it was pretty close until Branden failed on Hopscotch while Alex made it to Spin Hopper before falling and as a result, he advanced to the national finals for the first time in his career.
His first appearance at the national finals was digested, but he had some close calls on The Gambler and stumbled through the Dipping Birds before he timed out on Thread the Needle, ending his best season to date.
Alex is set to compete in American Ninja Warrior 17, making it the first time that he will compete in a odd-number season.
