** The Vertical Limit, as stated above, began life as a post-Cliffhanger obstacle, and like its cousin obstacle, would receive several upgrades in its lifespan. The first two merely split the single long 1 cm cliff into parts, with competitors having to reach greater and greater distances to reach the next part. However, the ''real'' kicker came in SASUKE 41, with the Vertical Limit BURST, which attached the ledges to counterweight rotating structures. This means that for two sections, competitors have to reach ''upwards'' to grab the next ledge and endure it rotating downwards, which the final section does very drastically on the last transition. Unsurprisingly, no-one made it past the obstacle.



** SASUKE 35 had numerous issues with the Dragon Glider's bar becoming dislodged, resulting in competitors (including a few that were expected to perform well) being disqualified. This was thankfully (and surprisingly, given the track record with busted obstacles) been averted in SASUKE 36, where there were no issues whatsoever with the obstacle. However, the issues would return ing SASUKE 38 and SASUKE 40.

* RegularCharacter: Yamamoto Shingo has run in all 39 ''Sasuke'' courses. He is the ''only'' competitor to do so.

** SASUKE 37 would see the making of the Cliffhanger Dimension. While mostly similar in format to the Ultra Crazy Cliffhanger (Though the curve of the second ledge has been shortened), now the second ledge moves up and down, while the third ledge moves back and forth. That being said, weather issues in its debut tournament meant that the ledges had to stay stationary for official runs. It returned to working order in SASUKE 38, whereupon it obliterated everyone who attempted it except Yusuke Morimoto.

** SASUKE 37, similar to SASUKE 32, had very damp and rainy conditions, which forced the Rolling Log, now revised as the starting obstacle of Stage 2, to be skipped over, and the new Cliffhanger Dimension to become stationary when the ledges were supposed to move.
