Intro[]

SASUKE 30 (SASUKE 2014 第30回記念大会) was officially announced by TBS in February 2014. The application process opened on March 11, 2014, with a deadline of April 10, 2014. Qualifiers were held in the end of April 2014, with the tournament being recorded in May and aired on July 3, 2014. 

This tournament was known as the thirtieth SASUKE tournament, with the start position system went from #2901-3000 to signify that roughly 3000 attempts have been made in SASUKE, similar in SASUKE 10 (which used #901-1000) and SASUKE 20 (which used #1901-2000) to signify roughly 1000 and 2000 attempts respectively. 

This also marked the return of SASUKE All-Star Shiratori Bunpei, who had not competed since SASUKE 21 due to injuries. Also competing was American competitor Drew Drechsel, due to his outstanding performance in the 2014 SASUKE ASEAN Open Cup

In the First Stage, the Lumberjack Climb replaced the Rope Ladder, along with the modification of the Tarzan Rope, but 27 competitors still cleared the stage which tied with SASUKE 27. Unfortunately, Morisawa Noritomo had to withdraw due to a neck injury. The SASUKE All-Stars fared much better than in the previous four SASUKE tournaments. The only SASUKE All-Stars to fail were Shiratori Bunpei (who failed at the Jump Hang Kai) and Yamada Katsumi (who failed at the Ni Ren Soritatsu Kabe, noted that he was listed as a no-show on the official page).

In the Second Stage, many modifications were made. The time limit was raised from 90 seconds to 110 seconds following protests. The Spider Walk added a new section called the Spider Drop. The Backstream was toned down and the Wall Lifting returned in place of the Passing Wall. The Swap Salmon Ladder took out six competitors, four of which (Yamamoto Hiroshige, Takeda Toshihiro, Takahashi Kenji and Nagano Makoto) failed under the circumstances of the rule of landing improperly while Someya Koki and Takami Toshiharu failed it for the second time. The most notable of them all was Takahashi Kenji, who lost on account of a technical glitch. Aforementioned for the Backstream, 13 out of 16 who attempted the obstacle, managed to get past it. The three who didn't are Kadono Yuuya, Katakabe Hiromasa and Ishikawa Terukazu. Last but not least, Morikami Daisuke, Hoshikawa Taiga, Urushihara Yuuji and Morimoto Yūsuke timed out at the Wall Lifting.

Initially, there was supposed to be a separate stage where competitors vying a spot for the top 10 that will move on to the Third Stage, in the case of more than 10 competitors complete the Second Stage. This unknown stage, named as "2nd-B" in various internet discussions, involves The Gallon Throw, a notable event in Sportsman, and a somewhat modified version of the Tackle. But since only nine competitors completed the Second Stage, this stage was inevitably scrapped and was never used again.

In the Third Stage, the Drum Hopper was added, moving the Crazy Cliffhanger to the fourth obstacle and removing the Curtain Cling. The Crazy Cliffhanger was the only obstacle to defeat multiple competitors with six, including three former finalists (Nagasaki Shunsuke, Lee En-Chih, and Kanno Hitoshi). Aside from Kishimoto Shinya's Vertical Limit failure, two competitors (Kawaguchi Tomohiro and Matachi Ryo) cleared the stage, with Kawaguchi for the first time, and Matachi for the second time. With every competitor having at least reached the Crazy Cliffhanger, this ties with SASUKE 12 for the second highest number of Cliffhanger attempts in one tournament, at nine, only beaten by SASUKE 4, at 10.

The new Final Stage consisted of 12-meter Spider Climb, followed by the Tsuna Nobori of the same height, which made this Final Stage similar to the SASUKE 5-17 version of the Final Stage, with the time limit staying the same at 30 seconds. Kawaguchi Tomohiro was the first competitor to attempt it, but due to slipping many times on the Spider Climb, he timed out only three meters up the Tsuna Nobori. Matachi Ryo was the next to run and came up one meter short of the goal, thus ending the tournament.
