Drop off

Hi 2544! We have the ability to do both, but we prefer to drop it onto the peg.

Good luck! And see you at Pittsburgh!

Our team was having a difficult time determining how to attach our bumpers and I really liked your usage of wingnuts. How quickly would you estimate you are able to remove and replace your bumpers currently?

This is our first year doing one piece bumpers, but so far they are great! We do not have all of the brackets attached for the bumpers yet, but right now one person can put the bumper on very quickly ( I haven't timed it, but I would guess under a minute). We have a bolt sticking up that is permanently mounted to the frame, and the holes on the brackets on the bumper line up with them, so a wrench is not required to tighten the wing nut. I can post a picture after practice tonight.

The new knot fixed this perfectly though.
We are using a monkey fist also, but at the top of the rope instead.
Looks great and see you folks in Pittsburgh.
