edit: And can't forget the look on the architect's face when he had no idea what our honeycombed fiberglass (our ramps) was used for in real life
It's for making ramps, obviously...

Since we fixed all of those issues however, I think we've got a good shot to being dangerous at Las Vegas and a potential in Atlanta

In my opinion, this was the best ramp at VCU
big, high traction, 12", 2 robots, stable, and never fell early in a match

I love the grip tape (looks like skate tape) on the ramps. I've always imagined trying to ollie a 100+lb robot. ^_^

.My older brother (who was also the driver on the team) once ramped the 'bot over the teeter-totter that was stationed in the center of the field his senior year... It ended up breaking both front casters off, and sending showers of hardware across the field. He fixed it, but not before getting an earful.
We now refer to that fateful incident affectionately as "Jared-Air"
"Cody-air", on the other hand, involves a go-cart and the jeopardy of human lives.
