The Gila Monsters had an incredibly tough robot. They fell from a ten foot pole several times, and i dont think they missed a single match. The mechanism they used to go back and forth on the pole was very creative, also.

Thanks for all of the comments. We have fallen from the bar three times, once in Az (cord snapped) and twice at nationals. Once our hook unbent the very second before we latched our drive mechanism onto the bar(that was the worst one) and the second our winch gears came loose. All three times we were right back up on the bar for our next match!
As for my favorite hangers, 1405 - very fast and reliable, the only ones in galileo who beat us up onto the bar! Not to mention our alliance partners for the finals. Also 330 - a fellow shimmy, these guys never fail to impress me.
