History [ ]
The challenge debuted in Ghost Island as a Reward Challenge . After hopping over the tables, each tribe had to search through sandbags to find the lever, before attempting to raise three flags. Chris Noble used his experience as a baseball pitcher in college to easily win reward for Naviti , leaving Malolo empty-handed yet again.
The challenge returned in Edge of Extinction as a Reward Challenge, where rope was instead tied around the lever, which each tribe would first need to untie before throwing sandbags to raise two flags. The Lesu tribe struggled in yet another challenge, allowing Kama , followed by Manu , to win reward.
