You've got to love the consistency of Team 254. Year after year they produce elegant and inspiring robots. This year looks to be no exception.

There is a big difference in rules between 2006 and now, however:
-In 2006, you could have all 3 human players loading your robot at once. This year, HPs can't leave their stations
-In 2006, sitting still didn't make you a huge target to get scored on
-In 2006, the HPs ball supplies were constantly replenished.

Also, this robot is insane. It never ceases to amaze me how simple some teams can make their robot, and how effective those simple robots end up being.

Poofs -

Looks great. Fantastic robot as usual. Good luck this season!

We traditionally assign push-ups for things like this. I like your idea. We've got plenty of regolith that needs scrubbing!

Once again an amazing robot from 254/968, this guys have inspired me with their designs ever since I joined FIRST. The quality in their robots is marvelous, and the effectiveness of their designs is impeccable.

After seeing their traction control video, I am convinced that this two robots will dominate.

Congratulations to both teams for another inspiring robot.

Honestly that is the scariest 7 second video I've seen in my life.

If you guys get someone pinned into a wall, game over!

Well hopefully if you are the other alliance you will just attempt to keep as many balls off the floor as possible
