The general rule is that the 54 inch cylinder includes the bumpers, and that the cylinder is only vertical relative to the field while not in contact with the pyramid. While in contact however, the cylinder is relative to the robot, with that being said, if you must violate the cylinder rule to climb while the robot is sitting flat, with the cylinder relative to the ground, then you also must violate the rule in order to be climb the pyramid. Just wanted to make sure that you were informed about this.

When the robot is in contect with the pyramid, it has to fit within a 54" x 84" cylinder in any orientation. The cylinder is not robot oriented. If the robot isn't in contact with the pyramid, then the cylinder is vertical.
