i agree with all the tasks everyone else has already posted
i just wanted to add the LAKE MALAWI DETOUR i don't know why i have a soft spot for it
the atmosphere of the people on the lake village, and it was such a physical detour i loved the scenery
awesome detour :hrt:

Zorb in New Zealand :lol: well all of TAR5, wish TAR would go back to the old style and not bunching/direct flights to everywhere :lol:

I love most of those tasks too! :hoot: The second Czech leg was epic!!! ;)
But I enjoyed the finale. I'd probably say it was the best finale without a memory task. It was suspenseful, since the positions kept switching around all the time, unlike most of the more recent finales.
-
It is true about the position changes. The finale was probably more fun to watch than TAR18 or 19 or a few others but I thought the final task was very poorly planned.
-
TAR 19:
Body Building Task in Belgium
It was very unusual to me. :lol:
-
I haven't been following TAR20 that much but, is the Paraguayan leg that good? Most of the posts refer to that leg

Definitely agree about the final task. :tup: It was pretty poor. Although one of my faves won, so that's another reason why I love that finale. :lol:

Watermelon in the face of course!

Not my favorite, but I think the coracle task in TAR 17 Leg 1 (using the boat to cross the water) had the potential.
- If teams weren't spread so far apart and more neck-and-neck it would've created great comedy/suspense.
- Even better if they had to cross the moat to the Pit Stop. That would've added for even more suspense/hype.
- Maybe if they did this task in like the F5 or F6 where teams tend to be more and more competitive?
Wouldn't mind seeing it return :-[ although it's very unlikely as I'm the only one that likes it :lol:
