The twelve remaining candidates are perched on poles in a circle about four feet in height. A horizontal motorized bar starts rotating, passing over the poles. The candidates must jump to avoid it, and test continues, the  more the bar rotates faster and it rises. A candidate has the right to grab the pole if it is unbalanced, but he/she must stand up on the pole before the bar does not switch back to its level.

First, applicants must go down a slide, a length of 45 feet before reaching the pool. Second, they must reach a slope where they have to go over rolling drums of 50 kg . Then they  must pass through the "wall of rain", where participants have to make their way to the other end of the narrow ledge, with small rocks fixated on the adjacent wall for contestants to grip on, as gallons of water flow down the wall, impeding the contestants' balance. The candidate then must jump on a turnstile consisting of giant poles arranged around a wheel, in which the candidate must hold. On the other side is a small platform on which to jump to continue. Then contestants must make their way to the beam, a beam that turns around on itself. If  the candidate is dropped, he/she must go on the platform again and repeat the process, but the beam does not turn. Finally, the candidate must jump on two trampolines, the second being located higher than the first. The candidate must push a button on the final platform to stop the timer. The candidate who finishes the course in the shortest amount of time will be declared the champion of Quebec's Wipeout.
