Pi:
I like the inclusion of the EP task but wish it could be done in a way where more teams will go for it; no fun to see non-first-place teams barely give it consideration. I remember seeing firewalking on MythBusters. The cast were surprised that it didn't hurt your feet as long as you didn't panic and only took light steps; assuming the coals are packed tightly and all other safety precautions are met, the battle is all mental.

The klek shop was a great clue location, it was just surreptitious and unexpected enough to give teams a little bit of trouble, then an a-ha moment.

Seeing the woodcutter guy from the previous leg on the bus was one of the best coincidences on the race in a long time!

If you're ever given an object on the race and it relates to a puzzle task, you should always examine it, turn it over, shake it, look at it from a different angle. A good task, though dampened a little by answer-sharing.

The Race is getting really competitive! Can't wait for next week!  :cheer:

Xoruz:
The main complaint I have is placing the Express Press at the very beginning. While the task was short, having it well out of the way at least meant that there was some risk. The simple act of removing taxis really worked for this leg since, more so than other recent legs, there was more emphasis on getting from place to place over tasks. It also led to the fun run in with the wood judge. Considering there was no equalizer, I see how Phil was impressed with Carson & Jack’s comeback. While it ended up being moot, at the very least Melinda & Erika got eliminated from falling behind rather than 2 hours of accumulated penalties and missing the word “not”.
