The Gauntlet

The Gauntlet is recurring tribal challenge that originated in, and reappeared in. It is an obstacle course that requires physical prowess, including the ability to fend off direct opposition.

Rules
One at a time, contestants traverse an obstacle course (containing obstacles such as wobbly or floating bridges, rolling barrels, stepping-stones, balance-beams and rope-lines). As they do so, members of the opposite tribe attempt to knock the contestants off the course by swinging large canvas bags at them. If a contestant falls off the course, they must return to the beginning. At the end of the course, the castaway collects a pennant, which they then return to their tribe mat by way of the obstacle course. The first tribe to collect a given number of pennants wins the challenge.

History
The challenge debuted in for tribal reward. Koror won the challenge after acquiring ten pennants, winning fishing gear.

In, the challenge was used as a combined tribal reward/immunity. Airai won the challenge after gaining five pennants. In addition to immunity, they also won pizza and beer to enjoy at camp.
