it does say that the root must be full supported by the tower. You still have to hang from it without touching the ground.

Are the jack up legs still going to touch the ground at the end of the match?

If so then you wouldn't be fully supported by the tower and not get the climbing points.
The base (BATTER) of the tower is considered part of the TOWER.
