Re: Where you "Cant" hang from

cool, thanks, my team was also thinking about hanging from the two bars on the platform. To be exact, we were going to fit through the tunnel, and while in the tunnel we were going to latch ourselves onto the two rods that make up the tower platform and hang from there. Do you think in your opinion that that is legal?

Re: Where you "Cant" hang from

Did you read in the rules the definitions of ELEVATED and SUSPENDED? I can't really understand what you're describing, but if you are not entirely above the PLATFORM (the top of the tunnel) and you're contacting the TOWER then you are not gonna get any points.

In order to get the bonus points for being ELEVATED, you need to be above the plane of the TOWER PLATFORM.
