I would like to know more about this climber and why that team was not allowed to use it because it looked like a really nice climber solution.

Also, I am curious if anyone did any strength tests and how much weight this type of climber would lift.

thanks
I had talked with one of the students on 4656 and the reason that they couldn't use their climber is because when they climbed their robot turned sideways and they ended up outside of the 15 inch extension rule.
