Re: How many teams have sucessfully done a triple balance?

As mentioned before, 1023 balanced with 469 and 3175 in the eliminations at Detroit. Out of our 6 elimination matches we tripple balanced 4 times.

One time we tried to tripple balance, but our robot fell off the bridge. It was still hanging on a little bit though , so 3175 essentially rammed our robot off the bridge so they could try to double balance with 469 and almost tipped over in the process. In the last few seconds of the match 469 and 3175 managed to double balance and somehow our robot remained upright. Our robot was only damaged a little. It was probably one of the most nerve-wracking matches I've ever seen and I even screamed "STOP" several times when the robot was about to fall off.

You can see the video here along with the rest of the matches 469 was in:
