Best and Worst final roadblocks you have seen?

<< < (4/7) > >>

choroneko:
TAR 13 hundreds of clue boxes looked so exciting.

Worst is TAR 16. It was just too damm easy. Atleast TAR 19's big map has a physical element in it. TAR 16 has nothing. Anyone can finish it in less than a minute

But its being used to often. It was on TAR AU and TARA 2.

I like the game show board on TAR 17 and the world of clue boxes TAR 13 and the TAR 12 conumdrum

Glamazon Racer:
The TAR12 one was definitely the hardest one that there's ever been! ;)

My favorite  (possibly because it's the closest the race has been to me) is the maze. It was intense seeing Chip & Kim struggle so much with it and Colin & Christie have a strategy and blaze through it. Another that I like is the field of clueboxes from Season 13, it's my favorite memory challenge.

The worst final challenge is "Eat a pizza". It wasn't even a large pizza. This is of course ignoring the seasons that didn't have anything: Seasons 1, 2, 7, 10. Though if include those last two as having a task, Season 10 is the worst because of how unfair it was to slow people.

Ok just call it a task if you want.  To me there are Roadblocks (have to be done) or detours (chance to switch).  Most Roadblocks are for one person obviously, but in the final 'challenge' it's better if it is for 2 people I think, so both team members are tested.

The pizza thing was weird and didn't even seem a task to me, it was more just what I would call a 'Delay Event'.  Don't know why they did it, to promote the pizza place or something?  It was obvously weak anyway, but as I say hardly any kind of challenge.
