I noticed:
Korey's pic arranging barrel covers: he is holding a barrel cover with #MontBlanc on it.
So my thought is he's moving every letters to the other side because that hashtag barrel needs to be place at the end.
And plus, the barrels in the middle showed D , D and S Which means Dubai, Denpasar, Shenzhen?
So in that case the barrels would be 3 cities at a time. :didimiss:

Synchronized mountaineering may be one member coes vertical and one goes horizontal ???

I also think the synchronized mountaineering is like both members on 2 ends of the rope, so the one goes horizontal kind of "pull" the one on the vertical...

I didn't expect it as well. Dana did amazing in the final challenge though, so I was fine with them winning.

Still a complete surprise though :o. Usually I assume that the team that is edited in a negative light does not win, but it's great that I got surprised!

Matt was the only one redeeming in their team. He's a saint to have to put up with Dana. I would dump her if I was to live with her.

Lol My favorite teams won three spring seasons in a row (24, 26, 28). I had no hope for Matt & Dana because of their edit.

U-turn was a part of it definitely but their lying attitude and vile despicable hateful personalities that appeared in episode 11 as well. I seriously didn't see them screw up in one leg like they did in the finale! Karma is a B*tch.

P.S: I was originally rooting for the mom son team and secondly for the dancers but Tyler and his BF started to show some very unlikable traits especially toward the ending of the season that is why being third was better news than mom son team wining to me.

I am just glad my 3 fave teams of the season ended up in the final 3. A Matt and Dana type of team would normally have been my season pick, but this season I found Tyler and Corey and Sheri and Cole more likeable.

Vile despicable personalities! Sorry you're getting mixed up with Jonathen & Victoria! Seriously that's really unnecessary!

P.S: They're not Boyfriends they're friends, did you even watch the season?

Finale was ok but too linear.

Honestly, I don't see TAR lasting very long after this finale ( season 30 could very well be the last season). Season 24 and the move to Fridays really hindered tar's success imo. ( plus overuse of twist seasons and lack of good leg designs).

I just hope it doesn't get cancelled like ANTM - due to drastically dropped viewership after seasons with desperate casting twists.

Moving TAR to Fridays was a bad move. TAR should reconsider moving it back to Sundays look back at the successes of the past seasons. Bring back that era. As a TAR purist, I'd rather have a cast with regular people on the race but with a few prominent names (like Season's 22 or 25's). Twists should not be overused in way like its every after a regular season (Season 26 & 28 happend after regular Seasons).

At this rate I don't think moving to Sundays would do much. CBS actually just cancelled almost its entire Sunday lineup and TAR actually outrated a lot of the shows this Sunday with its finale.

The best thing we can hope for is STABILITY and a BETTER BUDGET. I know for sure I would love to see more self-driving/no budget cutting (I'm looking at you, TAR27's U-Turns and Lack of proper Speed Bumps).

YES TOTALLY.

Much better than S27. Better than S26 imo.
