In the first tournament, Corbin was easily one of the standout competitors, clearing both the Heat 1 and Semi-Final courses with ease and advancing to the Final. In the Final he performed well, being one of only six competitors to clear First Stage, before ultimately failing the Salmon Ladder on the Second Stage due to a combination of poor technique and inexperience. He came joint 5th overall.
Ninja Warrior UK 2[]
In the second Ninja Warrior UK tournament, Corbin returned with a vengeance, hoping to improve on his series 1 performance. Shockingly however, he failed the fifth of obstacle of Heat 5, the Ring Toss, but still came 5th overall, earning him a place in the Semi-Finals.
In the Semi-Finals however, Corbin's performance greatly improved. He cleared the modified course with ease, climbing the Spider Climb and pressing the button in the 6th fastest time overall.
In the Final, it was expected for him to reach and finally defeat the Salmon Ladder, but this did not come to pass. Due to problems mistiming the dismount on the Downhill Pipe Drop, he plummeted into the water, ending his second series challenge and placing him 15th overall.

Corbin would clear Stage One in the finals, albeit with the slowest time out of the international ninjas. On Stage Two, Corbin would get eliminated on the Wingnuts once again. This time, however, he would be disqualified for placing his hands on both the front and back side of the wingnut when mounting the first wingnut.
