I think they made the first stage too hard for everyone. I also think the salmon ladder would be better if the top pegs were the same distance as the others.

Sure, but the two G4 guys make up about 20% of the Americans that have been on that show. The rest of the Americans do in fact tend to be too big for the course.
And the salmon ladder should not be a stage 2 obstacle. It's right in line with the stage 3 stuff... where you should be able to attack it w/o the clock running. They should just put the brick climb back there, or maybe something like a wall of rings or something new to climb, but not a strength/endurance element.
In fact, they should really move towards emphasizing one element per stage... make stage 1 all about speed/agility, stage 2 about strength/power, and 3 about endurance. The stage 4 climb is already about all of the above.
