Re: Could the field be ice?
 

If they seriously made the entire field ice, or even extremely slippery then I could just imagine the lawsuits when some kid with a jumpy lawyer for a parent slips when getting the robot off the field and takes some nice bot to the face. for liability reasons I think ice fields will probably never happen. however maybe there could be some type of slippery area on the field like last year, maybe even coating the ramp just to make it hard to climb.
