I don't even associate a 1218 bot without it having them haha.

Last time I remember they used them as structure for their arm in 2011 they won Chesapeake and a multitude of awards as well. Looking good guys and expecting another winning season.

You guys always find a use for hockey sticks. Well done. What is that green material you are using on the pickup roller? Sorbothane?

Thank you! We actually used tire treads on top of PVC; we found that it gave us the best grip. We're excited to see you guys at our event! :)
