The individual obstacle course at the Mysore AFSB are (the serial numbers correspond to the points given to each task):
1. Jumping over a slide: This is the 1 pointer task which is the simplest. You have to run on the slope of an inclined plane and jump across a line which is marked at approximately 4ft from the end of the plane.
3. Walking a pole: Walking on a cylindrical pole of length approximately 6ft. The pole will be 5ft above the ground level. The pole is tricky because of the unevenness in it’s shape. Also if it has been walked across by another person before you then it becomes muddy and slippery.
5. Burma bridge: You need to walk between two ropes for a distance of 25 ft. The two ropes will be tied on poles at a height of 10 ft. The technique is to have firm hold of the top rope and sliding your feet on the lower rope to move. This obstacle starts shaking as you begin to move so maintain your body balance.
6. Climbing the wall: Run up the slope of an inclined plane and climb over a wall of 8 ft. The difficulty in this task is that the thickness of the wall is only 2 cms. So you can’t pull yourselves up by thrusting your hands on top of the wall. The best way is to put your one foot on top of the wall and get yourself rolled over to the other side.
7. Jumping through a tyre: Jump through a lorry tyre with your feet first. The tyre is hung from a post at a height of 5 ft. There will be a small loop in the rope which can be used to hold and and pull yourself up to get into the tyre. Many wouldn’t notice this loop which will make this task difficult.
8. Tiger jump: You have to climb up a platform of 9ft and leap a distance of 4ft to catch a rope and get down by the rope. This is where most of them get their palm and fingers cut and bleed. It is important to catch the rope at chest level so that you don’t slide down and get yourself cut.
9. Monkey crawl: You have to move on a wooden log of 25 ft in length hung from rope suspenders at 3 ft above the ground level. You can choose either to slide on the log or get underneath it and crawl with both your hands and feet. But since it is suspended from ropes, as soon as you climb on it the whole set up starts to swing from side to side. This gives a hard time balancing on it.
10. Rope climbing: You have to climb up a vertical rope to touch the post at a height of approximately 15 to 20 ft. You should make sure that you also get down step by step so that you don’t cut your palm by sliding down.
