Just remember that those aren't life saving devices.
Regardless I feel like this strategy was employed numerous times over the weekend.
I was waiting for these pictures to pop up on CD all summer.
I love how robotics kids think using innertubes in the pool is considered unique after using them as robot game pieces. ;) :yikes:

Did anyone grab those pool noodles in the background for any non-bumper uses?
way to go. were those placed in the pool autonomously? (sorry, i had nothing wittier to say...)
The tubes are much more fun, when they are used as sleds, but seeing as all the snow is gone i guess you have to use them for something. and what better than pool toys.
Hey! Look, Dave: it is a water game!

I can't help but notice the trend in robotics kids to be skinny... I guess thin would be a better word.

I thought about doing that one day when I was in Wal-Mart and saw noodles actually... Now that I have some FIRST tubes [currently in my pool] I just gotta get some flame fabric and pool noodles :cool:
Next you'll see a model of the rack in the pool with FIRSTers being the robots using the noodles as bumpers and the tubes as tubes playing Rack 'N' Roll :rolleyes:

We have some of them in a pool as well, they are cheaper than actual pool floats if you think about it and are already on hand;)

Forget Pool Basketball or Pool Volleyball, it's time for some Pool Rack n' Roll!
Bonus points for the first picture with a Rack (partial or full) next to a pool!

Pfffft.
Wake me up when your 'bot is chilling out along side you.
:)
Looks like fun, I just wish it was warm enough to swim up here.

yeah last weekend i got into my pool too... think the difference here though is that my tube is black....
lol... having fun with game pieces :)
During the build season there were several days of snow intermixed with a little sleet. Needless to say the snow packed really nicely for sledding.
The keepers will make a great way to spread FIRST as we fly down the Battlefield hill next year.

The secret is the six-week pizza/Krispy Kreme diet ;)

What's funny is the idea of using Rack 'N' Roll tubes for anything other than Rack 'N' Roll never once crossed my mind before I saw this picture.:p
