My understanding of what happened is that we decided that, in order to maximize Q points, we would allow the Froggers' 'bot on the bar. We tried to move over on the bar to give them room, but they grabbed the bar before we were ready, and came up under us, lifting us off the bar. (That's a mistake we won't make again.
)
We are, actually, able to lock onto the bar. When we raise all the way up (i.e. the lift is fully retracted) the chin-up bar is captive between the hook and the top of the lift, and we can not be lifted off.
