extreme challenge

10 of us (KangLeng as our leader, LipHoo, Cynthia, PeiShing, Lean, SookChen, YiHong, ZhoYee, HuiFang and Me) formed a group and attended Extreme Challenge organised by Disted on 24 April 2010. It was held in Air Itam Teambuilding Centre (AITC), very near to the Air Itam Dam.


We hiked up all the way at the bottom of the hill, somewhere in Air Itam Market. It was dreadful. It wasnt really high but the roads are really steep!


When we reached our pit stop at the Air Itam Viewpoint Bungalow, I was exhausted. Result of no stamina :S Then we played the Eggdrop game. Each of us were given an egg with 30 straws to protect the egg.




Our egg broke before we could present. *blush*

Then we continue to hiked up for 100 metres to reach the activity area. Got some briefing, and got Mr Kelvin as our "judge" between Team 7 (us) and Team 8. Then we start! ;)

The activities we had :

1. Bridge Crossing Challenge


We would have to use whatever way with those two plank of woods to cross to the other side. The fastest way is like the action of mopping the floor, thus explain the picture of me mopping above.

2. . Spiderweb




This task is where we must transport each member through the spider web without touching it. Nothing much happened here, besides KangLeng's alabai-ness which I think he might kill me if I post it here, so refer to Facebook if you wanna see our alabai leader! ;)

Oh, we took our first complete group photo with the help of Mr Tony. Which he vained in the 2nd picture. :S





3. Wild Woosey Buddy





Each member of the team would have to balance themselves on the rope without falling down and cruise the whole route. Team 7 and Team 8 decided to help each other to complete this task. What a friendly match! hehe

4. Free Rope Climb


Instructions are simple. Climb the rope, touch the tree, climb down. But the toughest activity among all! This is the task that proved I am not a monkey! Didnt managed to touch the tree. Couldnt go all the way to the last knot. Most of us didnt make it to the top. SookChen on the other hand, is the Monkey! She reached the top! Wonderwoman!

5. Swinging Tyre Course




All of us looked down on this challenge. It looks easy. And us watching TVB police dramas, they make it look sooooooooooooo easy. LOL In reality, it is not! It was rather dizzy when you're doing it. It spins non-stop! And clinging on the rope and tyre causes the bruises on my hand!

Then we had a little rest and also lunch time!


Then we continued our activities

6. Wall Climbing


We were kinda nervous for this challenge. The wall is 12 feet if I'm not wrong. :S Didnt expect we did quite well for this challenge. Everyone managed to went to the top. Thanks to our two macho heroes, LipHoo and KangLeng. They managed to pull each of us up! And also of course to the girls, for supporting each other's butt from dropping! Hehe Felt so bad that LipHoo couldnt go up as we girls have not enough strength to support his weight from below. Sorry LipHoo!



Another picture to show the height of the wall! ;)

We actually stopped halfway during this challange due to the weather. It was drizzling. So for safety reason, we stopped. Luckily it was only for a while. 15 minutes i guess and Mr Rain went away. So we resumed wall climbing and other activities.

7. A-Frame




In this challenge, one member would need to stand on the A-frame, and other members would control the ropes attached to the frame to slowly lay the frame down. We were evil during LipHoo's turn. We kept scaring him by going "LipHoo... ngek ngek ngek", making him feeling insecure, like we would drop him! Should've record his reaction. Priceless! :P

After completing everything, we were told that there will be soccer competitor. Okay, soccer. Wait... WHAT? SOCCER? FOOTBALL?

8. Soccer
Hahahahha being a 8girls+2guys team, we were like SHIT! SOCCER! We never played soccer in our lifes! And we "fortunately" get the so-called MACHO GUYS team as our competitor. We were gonna be so.... so.... DEAD! In the end the judge let us have an extra person in since it is not a fair competitor. So 5 guys from competitor and 2guys+4girls from Team 7! Heh..


HAHAHA we didnt just blocked the goal k! We played a little.. saw the ball, simply kick towards our goal, that's all. No strategy mia.. Anyway, we had a draw at first... but in the end, we won during the extra time because the competitor kicked the ball out way out from the soccer area. Not because we scored! LipHoo shouted with joy when we win! Hehehehe

Then we just sat down and let the mosquitoes to have a feast of a king being us as the food. You can see the results of their feast in my previous post here. We had photo taking session too to kill time while waiting for other team to play soccer.











Then again, it rained! Heavily this time.. Our team was so happy cause we dont need to fight in the semifinals for soccer! Weeeeeeeeeeeeee~ escape! :P

We had sausage buns + cakes for teatime. After food, each team would have to send a representative for the IronMan competition. KangLeng was our IronMan!


After the IronMan, we have reached to the end, the prize giving. We didnt win :( But it's alright, because we know we did our best. Nice spending time with friends! But not the mosquitoes of course!

Group photo session and gotong-royong.




After that, we hiked down to the bottom to grab our bus back to Disted. Saw a nice view halfway and stopped for a group photo again.

What an extreme muscle stretching day!

Can die want k!!! Luckily I managed to survived after mortgaging my properties for many rounds! Hey I come out as a winner too after 3 hours! ;D
