Re: Unexpected Plays That Make the Crowd Go Wild!

One of the best moments to me was back in Aerial Assist at our home regional, the Hawaii Regional. We were the only team there capable of doing a climb on the pyramid, and we went for it over and over again, but could never get a good catch on the corners to climb. However, one match, we were able to catch the bottom corner well and climbed. We stopped the climb as soon as we were in 20 point range, just because I didn't want to risk it. As soon as we got past that point, we were REALLY sketchy that high. But we stopped it there, and the audience went NUTS as we were going up, even more when the buzzer sounded and we were still in the air. Matches stopped for nearly 5 minutes as EVERYONE wanted to get a picture of it XD It was incredible. Unfortunately, there is no match footage, but someone did a compilation of the competition, and put it in there. Feel free to watch!

The only comment on there is mine, with links to one of our climb attempts, as well as a short clip of our 20-pt climb.
