First Look: Grant McCartney’s Los Angeles City Qualifying run

American Ninja Warrior returns for season nine on June 12 at 8 pm on NBC! Now, we’re getting our first look at the debut episode: The Los Angeles City Qualifiers

First up, we have Grant McCartney. The dancing Island Ninja has become a fan favorite over his past two seasons on the show.

No surprise that the Floating Steps give him no trouble.

There’s a new Cannonball Drop that looks a bit tricky with those hard jolts in there.

The Fly Wheels are the first grip strength test. But Grant has it covered.

Last, we see him sprint across Block Run.

Does Grant get all the way to the top of the Warped Wall? We’ll find out in less than a week!
