Pool's final design mostly stayed true to the original. We see both hot tubs were different and some differences in height for the high-jump at the start. Likewise the ending was changed to have the end pad inside the level rather than outside.

Gym's original design is widely different to today:
- Bouncy Floor used to be a bumper section, with the gems more spread out (good luck screenshot glitching all 5 gems in one go, plebs)
- There was no ramp with super speed at the start for a gem
- Therefore there were only two gems at the pit at the start, but there was a super speed on the other side!
- The pit's ramp at the bottom didn't have a pass-through way behind it (just a solid wall)
- The ramp to the two gems wasn't smoothed out like today
- The jump to the two gems next to the ice was actually really hard, and needed proper positioning, as shown in this video
- No checkpoints with nukes/fan/gem challenge
- MBG default tubes woooooooooo!!
- No gravity wall challenge
- There were tubes instead in that part, with a fan leading to a gem squeezed where the tubes intersected
- The finish had a slope to go up to a "floating" platform, unlike today where it's on a proper structure.
- A 5 seconds Time Travel hid behind the carpet wall-slope (today it's solid wall)

My best time, back then, was 1:32.44, so Technostick beat me ever so slightly :(
