Also. We are planning to have the entire climb done in an "autonomous mode". That way, we will be approaching 100% repeatability. Also, in this video, I am not certain that the tanks were precompressed prior tho the climb. You may also note that it looses pressure on the way up. That would be due to this.

With more storage tanks, more practice, and by charging your pneumatics beforehand I think you'll have some gain in speed but not too much. The step that I see which takes away some significant time is whatever mechanism you have to move your robot back and forth. For example, at the beginning of the hang, whatever you're using to pivot your robot up off the ground can probably be sped up. The actuation itself is not your issue, in my opinion. Putting a hard stop when you sway back and forth will also help significantly.
