yeah, all blockers will have to have a sturdy/flexible support to stay vertical , and to make sure they don't flop over more than 15 inches outside the frame perimeter. In the past we have used PVC with a noodle over it as a blocker.

Anyone that successfully blocks our shot will very likely be in violation of G17 or G25C.

Hrm. I suppose putting it in terms of bench grinders would be more appropriate. I hadn't thought of that.

2.1 bench grinders.

Ours has to be at approximately 4.6 bench grinders.... we might need to change some gear ratios :eek:

...Not even our first ball. We sent a Garmin VIRB camera flying across the room and still hit the goal. I'm beginning the thing Dirty Harry may have been a more appropriate name for the robot this year.
