soccerkid6 Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 Really neat obstacle course, the 'monkey bars' and crawling under wire are my favorite bits. Excellent tower, wall, and figs too Quote
HammerBro Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 Nice job! The course looks cool and I really like to see that the castle walls are done mainly in dark bley. Quote
