SUPERBOATS
In a shocking twist, only one team from each superteam is allowed to compete.
While resting on wooden rafts, the teams must paddle out into the water three times
to capture three flags representing each team on their superteam. Once a flag is
captured, the team must paddle back to shore to plant the flag on the beach. The
first team to plant all their superteam’s colored flags on the beach wins.
 

IT'S A DRAG 
One member of each team pulls a “sled” that holds a barrel containing 135 pounds of
water. Meanwhile, their teammate moves three wooden logs under the sled to help roll
it along the course. The sleds can only be rolled on the logs; they cannot just be
dragged along the ground. If a sled rolls off the logs, the team must get the logs back
under their sled before they continue. The first team to roll their sled over the course
and completely across the finish line is the winner.
 

 CREATE YOUR OWN GAME
Each team must use a pan held up by sticks to catch a ball while moving across an
obstacle course. Once the obstacle course is cleared, the teams must grab a flag and
run back across the course to plant it in the area from where they began. The first
team to get all five of their balls into the can and carry their flag back to the starting
point wins.
 

 FILL 'ER UP
Each team will have to fill a clear tube with water, which they must gather from
containers across the clearing. Each clear tube has a team’s color floatation device
inside. The first team to force the floating device to fall out of the tube, due to the
tube’s full capacity, wins. But there is a catch: the only tool the teams have to
transport the water is another tube-ish pipe that is completely opened on each end!
 

ALL TIED UP
The teams must untangle three separate criss-crossed ropes that have been
meticulously tangled around tree trunk-length poles. Everyone is nervous, as there
has never been more pressure to win; the team that manages to untangle their
ropes first will be guaranteed a spot in the Endurance: High Sierras finals.
 

SLINGSHOT ALLEY
In the game, one player from each team will be standing on a raft in the middle of
the water, using a catapult to launch rubber balls to their partners on shore.
Meanwhile, using metal catchers, the players on shore wait to catch the launched
balls and place them in wooden boxes that have the game pieces in front of them.
There are eight boxes on shore for the eight pieces up for grabs.
