Individual Obstacles in SSB and AFSB

     This is the task conducted during GTO series.  In this task main purpose is to give chance to every individual by providing time constraint to, judge their proficiency.  This task usually lasts for 3 minutes. Sometimes bit more time is provided to complete them.  This comprises of 10 obstacles and you have to complete.  Them in stipulated time.  The obstacles are such designed that they become more and more difficult as you move on to next one.  Every obstacle provides you some points which you score after crossing that obstacle successfully without breaking any rule.  So marks are like 1 obstacle consist of 1 mark 2nd of 2 marks and so on so it become sum total of 55 marks.

OBJECTIVE OF THIS TASK:

1. To check stamina and courage of candidate.
2. To evaluate his individual personality pattern.

5. Remember marks you got in this task hardly decided your selection and rejection it is nearly conducted to get into individual personality of candidate and to get aware of some facts like height phobia, depth phobia, laziness , active.
6. Remember GTO also checks out you managerial skills here by looking at the pattern you choose to complete obstacles because their is no hard and fast rule to attempt from starting. 

HOW IT TAKES PLACE:

1. GTO briefs you all about 10 obstacles and time limit. 
2. He will let you know about that you may start from wherever you want as obstacles are not serially arranged. 
3. If you don't want to go for particular obstacle you may skip that and come back again after completing rest of them provided you are left with time or not. 
4. If you have completed all obstacles but you are still left with time then you can start repeating you’re those obstacles. But if any one is left in b,w then first you have to complete that then only you can start repeating them or even if while crossing if you have broken any rule then again first you have to cross that obstacle again. 
5. Remember when GTO takes you to brief obstacles just design your pattern in that meantime.
