Slam Dunk

Slam Dunk is an obstacle that will be introduced on ĐHN SASUKE 2021: Ninja Warrior as the first obstacle of the Third Stage, replacing the Flying Bar from the previous season.

It consisted of two balls, each with handholds on the left and right sides. Competitors must grab the first ball and build enough swing to hop it and land onto cradle in front. Then, they must grab the second ball and repeat the same process as on the first ball. After that, competitors must build enough swing and momentum to make the dismount to the landing platform.

Due to in fact nobody cleared the First Stage, all of the courses except the First Stage were left unattempted. The Slam Dunk was no exception.

Trivia
