OBSTACLE FEATURE: TIPPING POINT

Author: Tough Mudder March 6, 2023
Share on Facebook Share on Twitter

Our events are designed to push individuals to their physical and mental limits through a series of grueling obstacles that test their strength, agility, and endurance. One of our most challenging obstacles is called Tipping Point.

Tipping Point requires participants to climb up and crawl through a tube that is mounted on a pivot. When your weight passes the “tipping point”, the tube will tip downwards onto a slippery slope, sending you headfirst into a pool of water. The challenge in this obstacle is the fear of not knowing when the tube will tip.

Way back in 2018, this obstacle won the coveted obstacle Innovation lab design competition. Designed by Peter Duncan “Tipping Point” the design ticked all of the boxes when it came to fun, fear, and challenge.

Since its introduction, “Tipping Point” has become one of the most popular and challenging obstacles at our Tough Mudder events. It requires participants to not only have physical strength but also mental focus and control.

GET READY TO BE TIPPED

Innovation Lab Competition

The Innovation Lab Competition Is where the greatest minds in obstacle course design come together to create the most ridiculous and challenging obstacles for participants to conquer. You see, Tough Mudder isn’t just about running through mud and jumping over walls anymore.

No, no, no. It’s about pushing yourself to the absolute limit and feeling like a badass while doing it. And the best part? Just like “Tipping Point” the winning design gets to become a permanent part of the Tough Mudder course.

Enter the Innovation Lab competition and put your obstacle design skills to the test. Who knows, your idea could become the next ‘must-conquer’ challenge 👀
