New criteria for head referees, be very strong.
On the serious note, if the truss can be shaken enough so that a stuck ball will be freed, what precautions will be made to prevent the truss from falling down if a larger force was applied (ie. robot with ball extending above 62in)? Also, what happens if the ball stays stuck for an extended period of time or even the whole match?

Look at what is the base of the truss... It aint falling over from shaking or a robot hitting it.
