The Rope Junction (ロープジャンクション) was a Third Stage obstacle that was introduced in SASUKE 24 to replace the Kudari Lamp Grasper.
The obstacle consisted of six ropes: the first, second, fourth, and fifth ropes were made shorter to limit swing movement and alternate from left to right, while the third and sixth ropes were much longer and centered.
Competitors must cross all six ropes to make it to the landing platform (in a similar fashion with the Tarzan Rope). They were also required to use the sixth rope to drop safely down to the resting platform. The obstacle was proven to be extremely easy, as all seven competitors who attempted it, could complete it with no trouble.
