After attaching our piston, 624 practiced triple-balancing with our 2012, 2011, and 2009 robots: 2 longs and a wide. The 2012 robot (Panzer) was able to successfully push up the other two robots (neither of which were powered on) and balance the bridge in a matter of about 15-20 seconds, with the help of the stinger.
About 1' of each long robot hangs off, excluding bumpers.

I call photoshop! There's no way 2 long bots are able to triple balance 
Nicely done! Looks like IRI will be as intense as ever.

The 2009 robot could use bumpers. It looks like you have the space for one set on the left side, but you would need another 4" on the right. I don't doubt that it's possible, however.

Nice job 
All you need now is a robot like our with all th weight in the back. We go up first and everyone follows. We hang off just less than half the robot including our bumpers.

P.S. I have my glasses on now.
