We test that way too. Those Andy Mark KOP wheels sure grip well.

It's got 2.5" ground clearance in the center which should be enough for any well designed ramp.

I remember when i was a sophomore in HS doing that very thing. It was a tradition for me in HS for some strange reason. I wonder if I'll do it on the penguins robot this year....

Looks like a good option, just hope that you dont get pushed in the omnis too much. My old team, 830, had a holonomic drive last year and was abused match after match because of the sliding properties of the omniwheels
