Perhaps someone that was there today could elaborate? We had lots of fun thinking of different ways to play Quad Quandary. Field reset should be fairly quick once they get the hang of it. And setup and breakdown of the low-cost field took very little time.
IT wouldn't necessarily be a fast lift... but it can be done.

We built a winch last year with not very many parts that could lift and hold 15 pounds.
