For those of you that missed it, an amazing coopertition balance took place in qualification match 35 at the 2012 Oklahoma Regional:12512
The match video can be found here:

I was the drive coach for 1540, the Flaming Chickens, during this match, and I have no idea how our driver and the driver for 2345 pulled this one off.
That is beautiful.
I have no idea how something like that even happens, but I guess if there's enough matches being played and enough teams successfully balancing the co-op bridge, at least a few of them are going to be insanely unlikely balances. Add some skilled drivers into the mix and I guess it's not incredibly surprising that it happens, but still quite the event when it does!
Also, congrats on the regional!
This is why I love the bridges, actual edge-of-you-seat excitement.
Best finale in years

That was beautiful. Qualifying match 88 was pretty great too. 1540 and 1561 Roboducks had an awesome bridge balance at the last second.
Video Here (http://youtu.be/D1O1sJUYOg0?t=1m55s) I wish we were there this past weekend!
I don't think I saw that one. Would have been around lunch Friday... hmm... not that I didn't see any really close ones! (KC had that one moment where a robot pushed over another robot that fell over. That was amazing)
Now I'm thinking about any amazing performances we did. Certainly none with the bridge (though the second semi-finals would have been had the red alliance not gotten their double and we did get our single. That was pretty close). There were a couple where we came from being behind after autonomous, but all the close, interesting matches we ended up losing :/
