Task brief

The task brief is laid on a Stormester-branded red marker spot at the Søllerød Golfklub, near the Stormester house. The brief for the task is as follows:

Get the ball into the hole.

Nothing must touch the ball.

You may only use one wind instrument at a time.

If you want to switch wind instruments, you must first snap your fingers exactly 100 times.

If you use the leaf-blower, you must wear the boot while doing it.

Fastest wins.

Your time starts now.

Task notes

Flanking the red marker spot, there are two plinths. On one plinth, there are a set of bellows, an uninflated balloon, a recorder, and a coiled length of hosepipe. On the other plinth, there are a balloon pump, a blowgun, and a bugle.
In front of all of this, an orange pickleball ball is laid on the lawn, next to a Wellington boot attached to a leaf-blower.
There are two small red flags a distance away across the grass, apparently denoting the location of the hole that the contestants are aiming for. However, these are both fake holes consisting of black fabric circles pinned to the ground with the flags.
The real hole is immediately behind where Mark is standing at the beginning of the task, and he initially has the small red flag for that hole hidden up his trouser leg, completely concealing it. He only steps away from the hole and allows it to be seen by the contestants once they have begun trying to blow the ball.
