Re: Are extensions with bumpers after the start of the game legal
It looks like you have some real BUMPERS, and then you have some other padded devices that extend beyond those BUMPERS.
The padded devices are not BUMPERS per <R07> - they don't start in the BUMPER ZONE, they move, etc. Consequently they are not exempt from the weight and size rules in <R11>, and they must be entirely within the vertical projection of the FRAME PERIMETER when in the STARTING CONFIGURATION prior to the match per <R14>. This also means that these padded devices do not have to meet all the conditions of <R07> - they don't have to be red/blue, don't need team numbers, they wouldn't even necessarily have to have a cover at all, they aren't restricted in what materials can be used.
