Quote
In the Season 28 finale episode of The Amazing Race, the final three teams will travel from Shenzen, China, to Santa Barbara, California, for the 1 million dollar prize. During the final leg of the Race, they'll face a gut-wrenching leap of faith, jump off a building that's over 150-feet high, and perform the harrowing task of synchronized mountaineering. Phil Keoghan will host the heart-pounding event.

What the hell is synchronised mountaineering? ???

It's mountaineering together following a pattern, I don't know. Just Google it.

I wouldn't have asked if google was any help :lol:

Kinda odd to be mountaineering in Santa Barbara when we already had a whole leg of it in Chamonix though.

I love all final 3 teams. I think Tyler and Korey won, because they are the strongest of the 3 teams, and the dancers who also are strong have a bad edit. I cannot see Sheri and Cole winning, Sheri slows Cole down, I love her, but its true. I cannot see them be faster then the other 2 teams, a lot of challenges are phissical and also the non physical are great for Tyler nad Korey. I think they have a good edit too.

It's a tossup between Sheri & Cole and Tyler & Korey... The latter have had this really positive middle of the road edit throughout, so they could be one of those winners everyone just sees as a cute, positive team. Though they've started to annoy me a bit... :lol: But Sheri & Cole have got a really strong edit too, they are very inspirational (mostly Sheri) and have a cute relationship. Plus Sheri's very vocal on facebook, so maybe that's a sign ;D But she might be just as happy for making F3.

BTW, if Sheri & Cole somehow manage to beat Zachel, Team Rooster and Brodie & Kurt (!) and make it to the F3, they definitely shouldn't be underestimated.. :P Who knows what can happen in the finals, hell, even Josh & Brent won, and right know the edit isn't giving away a clear winner.

Something I noticed is that teams with the biggest/OTT edit don't normally win. Brook & Claire, Gary & Mallory, Jaymes & James ( ??? ), Adam & Bethany, Justin & Diana...

Imo, it all comes down to who's being played a little more lowkey (if that makes sense) or who's a little less OTT

Right now, I think Tyler & Korey are winning. I'd say Sheri & Cole but I remember I thought Mike & Rochelle were gonna win :funny:

Adam & Bethany was OTT???

So if the spoiler is true, Burnie & Ashley will be in the second place next two legs in Indonesia :(

There is a spoiler that the team was eliminated in China winning the most second place. It seems to be Burnie & Ashley who won 3 second places in a row.

Ouch. :pity If that's the case, I wanna see them get a 2nd chance and then get at least 1 win.
This reminds me so much of Jet & Yna from TARPh2.

For me, yeah. Their whole edit was Bethany being inspiring and them being in love and having 0 flaws

I bet there is a U-Turn in leg 10 and Tyler and Korey use it on Brodie and Kurt, not only eliminating them but also completing their story with each other.

Another 1st place for Kurt & Brodie. Knowing they're going home at some point, it's certainly going to come as a surprise to those who don't know.

Tyler and Korey's edit reminds me of Brook and Claire's edit from season 17.They make it really far but fall short.

I dont think so. But we will see. MY bet: 1. Tyler, Korey .... 2. Dancers .... 3. Cole and Mum ..... It would be just luck when Cole and Mum would win, I love them, but how can they win? A lot of roadblocks were difficult for Sheri. And the Dancers just dont have a winners edit, but there is a possibility -  its similar with Kendra and Freddy, so it is possible that they won.

I thought of that too. I'm still wondering how Brodie & Kurt will fall / fell behind on Leg 10. ???

Perhaps a cryptic clue a la Andy & Tommy? :lol: But I was wondering this too! A simple U-Turn doesn't make sense unless the Detour is really hard orrr

Maybe a Roadblock that Brodie would struggle in--these teams would be smart enough to not help him.

Looks one of the teams that makes the Final 3 doesn't win a leg prior to the final leg so that is either Sheri & Cole or Burnie & Ashley at this point in time.
It's Clobbering Time!

With the F3 spoiled, that must be Sheri & Cole.

or it might as well be a random racer saying "we've won legs, but this is the only first that matters"

Possible too.

What SamuelDude might've meant is that the quote fits more for someone who hasn't won a leg. :grins:

I think that quote means that only first place matters, second and third are the same. It's not something like only last leg matters.

Yall are looking too much into this it's literally someone saying that the final leg is the only first that matters because of the million. I can see Sheri or Cole saying it in excitement, but anyone can say it.

It's exactly that.
Look at the formulation - "The only first that matters", as in other first places on other legs don't matter. It's not "Only first [place] matters", which would mean that 2nd or 3rd place is no accomplishment.

I am going to go out on a limb and say whoever says the finale quote will likely win the season.The finale quote didn't really give away who won last season but it pretty much implied Justin and Diana didn't win.
