95 did just what you described, used a teather to let the compresser charge up.
One of the few problems I had with the NJ regional was the pace they set during Q rounds. We would literaly finish a match and be called back before getting to the pits. I think matches were being called 3 or 4 in advance at one point. I understand why this happend, but it was annoying not being able to have the pit crew replace the battery and have to do it while on deck.
Anyways, since our system had a (small) leak in it, sitting on deck for 2 matchs would put us down around 100 psi, low enough to cause problems in the match. So during the match before ours I would teather up and top off the tanks. By finals we had gotten good at predicting how long we would need and had no problems with low pressure going into a match. Give your self at least a minute to connect, top off and disconnect in time to place your 'bot.
