Many a time I saw the zipties pop off and lexan decorations forcefully removed from the sally port by too-wide robots.

Yeah I think you witnessed us smoking after the match. Asheville was not kind to us. Our climber gearbox decided it was done after about 60 climbs so we used our backup from then until Champs. Still managed not to hit the carpet and foil the capture!
