I won't forget the response we got from one team when I asked how they dealt with smaller pit sizes than 10x10. He thought for a second and said, "if the event didn't have a 10x10 pit, we wouldn't go to that event." Oh, to have so many choices!

What experience do teams with trusses have with changing the size of their pits?

One of the reasons I''m glad we didn't pull the trigger this year is because we didn't even get a 10x10 pit in Virginia! I know 612 was able to fit their truss pit in the swarm of people that was the DC pits, and I think they said it's adjustable. I'll look for them.
