Lindsay Esklidsen

**Lindsay Eskildsen** is a web developer from Huntsville, Alabama (formerly Sacramento, California) who first competed in Daytona Beach, Florida in American Ninja Warrior 9.

## American Ninja Warrior 9

Her run was digested in qualifying but it was shown that she failed Rolling Thunder. She ultimately placed 2nd among the top 5 women and advanced to the city finals. Her time in qualifying should have put her in the 29th spot, however it did not go through on the broadcast (because she already had a spot in the city finals, the broadcast wanted to have a few more men).

In the city finals, she failed Rolling Thunder again. She did place 2nd again in the women's top 2 and moved on to Vegas. Her run on Stage 1 was digested but it was shown that she fell on the Double Dipper.

## American Ninja Warrior 10

Eskildsen returned to compete in Miami in American Ninja Warrior 10. Even though she fell on the Slippery Summit in qualifying, she placed 26th overall and moved on to the city finals.

Her city finals run was digested but it was shown that she shockingly failed the Cannonball Drop, and didn't qualify for Vegas.

In 2019, she officially married ANW competitor Joe Greene. She later took American Ninja Warrior 11 off as she was pregnant with her first child. Their newborn daughter, Ava Greene, was born on June 4, 2019. She did get a call for American Ninja Warrior 12, but took the season off due to another year of pregnancy. Her second child, Houston Eli Greene, was born on December 1, 2020.

## American Ninja Warrior 13

After missing two seasons due to pregnancy, Lindsay returned to compete in American Ninja Warrior 13. It is also revealed that she now lives in Huntsville, Alabama, along with her husband, Joe Greene. She participated in the the first qualifier episode, in which it was revealed she participated just 3.5 months after being in labor. Despite this, she put together a solid qualifier run, once again making it to the fifth obstacle V Formation before falling. This was enough for her to place 25th overall and 2nd in the womens' top 5. She was one of just two female competitors that qualifying round to even get to the fifth obstacle, despite not completing it. Unfortunately, during the fourth episode of semifinals, she surprisingly went out on the third obstacle, the Barrel Roll. As a result, she did not advance to Vegas.

## American Ninja Warrior 14

Lindsay returned for her fourth season in the first qualifying episode. Her run was digested, but she failed on the fourth obstacle Carnival after she made the transition to the nun chuck and she lost her momentum while trying to dismount, making it the first time that she didn't reach the fifth obstacle during qualifiers. Nevertheless she still placed 5th among the top 5 women and once advanced to the semifinals. She later competed in the third semifinals episode. Her run there was also digested, but she unfortunately once again failed on the third obstacle, falling on Clockwork after she spend a while trying to build the momentum to make that transition from the first wheel to the second, and she eventually failed backside onto the starting platform, once again not advancing to the national finals.
