You forgot to mention... 360 has 6 wheel drive and can hang over 1/3 of their bot off the bridge as can 3711...
Also at Seattle I saw both these teams practice triples. 3711 was with a wide and long and from watching them and some other alliances$@# I highly doubt many teams will succeed at triples with 2 longs.
On the other hand 360 practiced with 2 very good short bots (with stingers) who balanced very easily. The bots where very equal in weight so the bridge balanced immediately without assistance.
All of cd is talking about balancing with long bots, yeah it's possible but it is defiantly slower then three short bots....
