The course features top-rated obstacles that those that have competed in such an event will be familiar with.

Obstacles include a Giant A-Hole and Hanging Out. Giant A-Hole stands at a whopping 6.5m tall and requires participants to scramble up and over the enormous structure whilst participants taking on Hanging Out will be swinging from ring-to-ring through the middle of the participants climbing over the Giant A-Hole above them.

Spectators will also be able to watch the event and get up close and personal to those taking place.
