Re: do the racks move?

400 lbs, vs. 600 lbs isn't really anything worth squabbling about. It's still going to be next to impossible to move.

And John, to answer your question, the rack itself can be repositioned at the start of every match within a 3' radius. The 1' movement is the distance each set of spider legs is capable of moving from the center of the platform. So, if you move the rack over 2' feet, the spider legs can still be moved up to 1' away from the center. If you don't move the rack at ALL, the spider legs can STILL be moved up to 1' away from the center.

Hope this helps!
