15 minute football delay here (:;)
First flight lands. LOL LEO & JAMAL. "My wife is pregnant" as they run out of the airport.
Didn't Jamal do the first RB too ???Oh yeah! ???

No penalty for Leo & Jamal?

Because they realize their mistake from Ashley & Ally reminding them and switch person fast... ;)
Poor Naina, what a sad way to get eliminated.
Also this leg was such a mess for almost everyone, chaos across the board.
But to be honest the roadblocks were tricky to read.
and Naina & Hoskote's character development is cut short, so we won't be seeing Ron & Christina 2.0

Deliberate act I'd say, and it worked very well :) :'(
It was AMAZING apart from the elimination :torche
GO BINGO!

No it was all terrible and boring.
I was wondering whether Leo & Jamal and Hoskote & Naina should be given penalty for misreading the Roadblock clue ??? Once you choose to do the Roadblock, you can't change, right?The clue already specified who had to do the Roadblock, there was no choice involved, they just misread the directions but corrected their mistakes
What do you think?

That was an absolutely horrid episode. In every aspect.
Oh Tim & Marie won Express Passes.
The rest was horrid.
Agreed. This was a very good episode! :hrt:That was an absolutely horrid episode. In every aspect.

LOL were we watching the same episode :funny:? I thought this was one of the better premier episodes.
NaNa though <3
I just rewatch it in better quality and there is something that is bugging me...
When the front of the pack were paragliding from Alto Hospicio, they landed on PLAYA BRAVA, that is why the clue said "Find your partner, they will be paragliding to one of Iquique's beaches and you'll have to be brave to get there" Playa Brava would be something like Brave Beach.
BUT when the back of the pack, Jason, Brandon, Hoskote and Tim landed, they did it on a different beach called PLAYA HUAIQUIQUE. It probably didn't affect the outcome of the race but is really bugging me, specially if the clue said something about Brave Beach.Also, my house is visible when they were paragliding:funny:
:)
The editors must like me! They got me int LAX shots again! :waves:
NaNa though <3
Best female team since Brooke/Claire!

another disappointingED Indian team.. :(
As for the premiere, I feel like again, the editors push way too much into stuff and guess what results in that, it gets choppy. The airport scenes made this premiere better. I missed seeing teams communicating with each other. Hasn't happened since TAR17.
:welcome: to RFF Zachary!! Have fun! :waves:

I don't get the people who say it was so amazing... IMO, there was nothing special. It was pretty middle of the road... the tasks, the location, the cast... I mean, somebody said that last season's was pretty unmemorable, but the sky diving in Bora Bora was spectacular! One of the most scenic premieres in the history of the show.This times trillions.
This one was like... okay so I guess the paragliding with the dunes and the ocean is kinda nice... the rowing task was just ok, decent in the sense that some teams could make a mistake by the wording of the clue, but not exciting for a premiere... the teams were just ok, the Afghanimals are pretty annoying, thought I would like Tim/Marie but they had no real spark yet, I usually like the F/F teams, but these are pretty generic. WAY too many M/M teams. but I guess Chester/Ephraim are kinda nice, as are the Oklahoma boys. I THINK I might root for Jason/Amy, but I really dont know. Nobody really stood out for me...they were all just sort of there, or annoying.
I don't know, I was like very underwhelmed for my favorite tv show... hopefully it picks up and the cast begins to deliver.
Edited because I forgot to mention about the new intro, also I don't get why so many people hate it. I really like it, and the new music is great as well. Love the new instruments.
Also, forgot about this. i really felt for Naina. She seemed really excited for this and the only thing she did was ride in a cab. The design of the double roadblock was crappy, because she didn't do any real task.

The second batch of teams got a different clue which told them to go to Huaiquique beach.

Are you sure? I was wondering because I could tell the back of the pack did the paragliding with a different company than the first one. Maybe the second company had Huaiquique Beach as a usual landing spot.

Pretty sure, both clues are shown in the episode.

The idea of having to use a different company and a different landing spot for the same roadblock task is unusual. I don't recall ever hearing or seeing something like that before. Which makes the fact that we were shown the different information even more unusual.

@leslie_vega_ Es Amazing Race ....con un hermetismo tal, que @oasisfly no contesta el telefono
Is TAR, with such secrecy than @oasisfly doesn't answer the phone.
Oasisfly is a paragliding company.
I can confirm there were at least 2 paragliding companies, one was OASISFLY, this was tweeted that day:

Perhaps the reason they used two companies is that they wanted to be prepared to handle all teams at once. That is they needed 11 different instructors with tandem chutes ready.
This would be needed if the first flight got delayed and all the teams arrived more or less at the same time. I assume that it takes quite a while to perform the flight, pack up the chute and drive back up to the starting position and make ready for another flight.
