Re: Climbing Rules

Imagine a robot that placed a pair of hooks over the bar @ 30", while the robot is on the ground.

Is the robot in zones 0,1, and 2 and therefore executing an illegal climb?

If the same robot clamps onto the 30" bar but the clamps do not protrude above the crest of the bar is it then only in zones 1 and 2? That would seem to be the case.

Seems like some real constraints on climbing horizontally if #1 is deemed to be illegal.
