STACKING

"Who Stacks?"...

"WE STACK!!!"

Though other teams may have stacked higher, Team 461, my team, consistently stacked, probably 10 to 15 times out of the two regionals and nationals that we went to.

We chucked our original design that would have been God. It would be able to stack 6-8 high and could still go under the bar. Instead we chose a humble design that worked a lot more. It usually stacked one on top of two to make it three, and we won a round with baxter at midwest for 250 qps. We stacked of course.

At the competitions, though, i haven't seen too many teams stack. Many, if not most teams have stacking mechanisms, but they don't use them. And though stacking 6 high or 8 high is good, it has to be consistent.
