So I'm guessing it's those teeter-totter balance beams like the ones used in Vanuatu and Fiji, with puzzle pieces... similar in format to the F6
immunity challenge in Cook Islands? Well if it's balance, we know Crystal isn't winning.

Susie will win again.

add Randy to that list. I can't see him being stable at all.
Kenny's on the purple beam. He seems to take an early lead in the shots with the group of them. Also in other screencaps where you see his feet with the green and red beams in the background, no other feet or hands or any body parts for that matter are anywhere to be seen. Which might suggest that Kenny has pulled even farther in the lead.
I can't quite tell who's in the background past kenny. It almost looks like Crystal and Randy which would put them on the red and green beams respectively. Kenny's bag has a purple tie on it to go with his beam. Since Bob's bag has a yellow tie on it, i am assuming he's yellow beam. Can't tell what colour ties Sugar or Matty have. Matty's almost looks like a red and yellow stripe. |

I dunno... Bob was a log-rolling champ in college, you know. (If he had individual immunity, and a credible fake idol, maybe that leads into whatever
Corinne's risky plan is.)
Sugar may be good at this, especially if it's a more spatial sort of puzzle. You know, like fitting a romper out of a burlap sack. But yeah, I'd believe Susie or Ken, too. |

I'd think Ken would be the favourite to win this challenge since he has both balancing ability and puzzle prowess. But Matty is a surfer, he could out-do
Ken on the balance beams and make it a race during the puzzle. Bob and Corinne may do well in this too.

remember how Kenny & Matty flew through that spider's web obstacle course challenge? I have a feeling those 2 are going to blow everyone else away.
While the others like sugar, corinne, bob etc may have the balance, I can't see anyone having the speed and risk-taking to come anywhere near Matty &
Kenny. It's one thing to walk across a balance beam, it's another to run quickly across it.

I don't think that Ken wins this challenge.

In this one we can see who has which color

I know that's not Sugar's II around Randy's neck and it's not the Immunity Necklace either. Is it Bob's fake II or just a random necklace
like from the reward or something?

I think that we only for sure know from that show that Susie, Corinne, and Randy don't have it. Bye bye Susie being an immunity whore. |

In the auction pics, Sugar and Corinne are wearing chunky baubles around their necks so i'm guessing this is Randy's from that visit. on a side note: woohoo me for getting Kenny, Crystal, Bob and Randy colours right from that mini-blurry pic! back on topic.... if Corinne, Suzie, Matty and Randy don't have it, that only leaves Bob, Kenny, Sugar, & Crystal as options. I would hazard a guess it's not Crystal. OMG i just noticed in that pic, they're carrying bags so they're on their way back. If you look at the orange beams (Matty), he's WAYYYYYY ahead of everyone else. The pic shows 2 (and a little bit of the 3rd) "bridges" they have to lower. Kenny is in the process of lowering his first one. But look at the orange beams. Matty has lowered not only the 1st, but his 2nd and 3rd beams as well. He's smokin everyone else. So if he doesn't have the IN on his way to TC, he must royally screw up for someone to catch and pass him. My bet is on Kenny. ETA: I found another screencap at SPhoenix that shows Matty (between the blue and yellow vertical beams). Since all his bridges are down, he must have fallen off and had to go back to the start. I can't think of any other reason that his bridges would be down and still be way back with the others like this. Unless they beams fall like dominoes all at one time (kind of like what it looks like Kenny's purple ones are doing). In which case, Matty was just hidden in the first screen cap posted here and it captured the moment when all his beams were down but he hadn't started traversing the first one yet. If that's the case, just ignore all this babbling and move along. nothing to see here lolol.

Miss Rabbit I agree Matty had a lead in that shot. But doesn't appear to have the IN. The puzzle is the great equalizer.
Sugar looks very balanced and composed here. (Bob and Kenny were a bit wobbly in the same footage) ...key elements in winning a challenge. She Bob and Kenny are the favorites. On the fake IN Bob had similar trinkets as Randy's fish. They might have been passed out during a reward (like the canyon visit). Bob was at EI when the Fang had the native visit. Buables could have been pased out more than once. If so they might be easily spotted. In fact the PIP even mentions something about it being spotted. Corinne and Randy look grim in the walk to TC.

Just because they have bags, do they have to be on their way "back"? Couldn't they just be on their way? Like, they get the bag, and then there
are several stations where they have to get a piece and stick it in the bag? (It just looks like a really big bag, compared to the amount of stuff that could
be in there at this point.)
And they're very tightly bunched, wouldn't that be more typical at the start? Maybe the bag doesn't contain something they collected, maybe it is some sort of "tools" they will use later on in the course. (They just have to carry it to make balancing more difficult.) Susie's looks kinda like it's tied shut, with a blue (her challenge color) band, and Randy seems to have some of his green right about that same bag position, and Kenny a purple. (I know they have some sort of colored scarf or whatever just for the challenge, but wouldn't a normal person stick that on their arm or head, not use it to hamper themselves in collecting puzzle pieces?) ETA: Yeah, definitely closed
Corinne, Suzie, Matty and Randy don't have it, that only leaves Bob, Kenny, Sugar, & Crystal as options. I would hazard a guess it's not Crystal.I think we can see enough of Crystal's shoulder/neck to be sure she doesn't have it. (Assuming they have to wear the silly thing all the way to tribal council.)

Here's hoping she still comes close, like Sugar did in the last episode. And here's hoping that Sugar wins this one. She, Kenny, and Bob are the only ones not eliminated so far. |

birdlady wrote:No they don't have to be on their way back, that's true. I just don't remember a time that they've actually started out with anything but it could be a new twist on things. I like your idea of it being a bag of tools to use later on. And yeah, they are too tightly bunched for this to be anything but the start. I'm still trying to figure out how this bridge lowering course can be used more than once. I mean, usually fancy things like lowering bridges would be something they'd have to continually battle against. But once they cross once, the bridges are down. What challenge is it to travel back along them if they're already down? Why go to all that work to make them raise and lower if it's a one time "ooo ahhh" at the start? And yeah, i didn't pay attention to Crystal in that photo. she's definately IN-less. |

This doesn't have much to do with the challenge (if any) but what shirt is Susie wearing on the walk to tribal? I don't think we've seen ANYONE
with a shirt like that this season. However, she ISN'T wearing it during the Immunity challenge. what the heck?

Maybe she won it during the reward?

lol homemaker Susie gets a full meal and clean clothes at the auction, everyone else get doritos and sea water and such.
I guess maybe it could be she gets exiled, and comfort now includes clothes? (If she is let in on the Sugar-idol secret.) |

So it looks like we've eliminated everyone other than Bob, Sugar and Ken. My money is on Bob.
