Intro[]

The 5th Competition, official name: SASUKE2000春 (literally SASUKE 2000 Spring), was the first tournament following Akiyama Kazuhiko's kanzenseiha. However, Akiyama did not appear due to a scheduling conflict. Future All-Star Takeda Toshihiro made his debut in this tournament.

The course underwent a modest renovation after Akiyama's kanzenseiha. In the First Stage, the Jump Hang and Soritatsu Kabe were added, eliminating many competitors and quickly earning reputations as feared obstacles. The Soritatsu Kabe has been used in every tournament since, except in SASUKE 18 (where the Great Wall took its place). Only three competitors cleared the First Stage, the fewest up to that point, and until SASUKE 19 (with 2 competitors). However, this was also notably the only tournament in SASUKE history where only All-Stars cleared the First Stage, though the term had not been conceived yet.

In the Second Stage, a new first obstacle, the Tackle Machine pushed the previous first obstacle, the Spider Walk (which received a modification), to the second position. Only Yamamoto Shingo was able to clear the Second Stage with just 0.3 seconds remaining, the lowest fastest clear time ever in SASUKE history. The other two competitors (Takeda Toshihiro and Yamada Katsumi) went out at the Spider Walk.

The Body Prop was the only new obstacle added in the Third Stage, but unlike the Tackle Machine of the previous stage (which was only around for this tournament until it returned in SASUKE 31's First Stage as the Tackle), the Body Prop became a threat to many competitors and was not removed until SASUKE 18 (the first tournament after the show’s second kanzenseiha achieved by Nagano Makoto). Yamamoto cleared this new obstacle and also defeated the Cliffhanger, which had been modified to include an ascending gap. Yamamoto ultimately failed the Pipe Slider, marking the first time ever that nobody would attempt the Final Stage. However, Yamamoto would be the first competitor to attempt the new Final Stage in SASUKE 7.
