Grab tubes in mid-air? I've never seen a team do that. How would that be possible?

Something very important: At our regional, at least, tower bases got dented. They're made up of about 12 different pieces with radial support structures between each piece (look at the field drawings), and by the end of our regional every single one of them (on all four towers) was dented inward. This made our deployment lining up mechanism mess up. Make sure you account for some denting, especially in the bottom half (the top part of the pieces weren't so bad).
