No, AndyMark does not "know something we don't". While they provide a lot of FIRST-legal stuff, and are FIRST's partner for FIRST Choice, not everything on their site has to be FIRST-legal. AndyMark is a business just like any other place you'd buy stuff to put on your robot.

All that said, please note that the Pneumatic Tubing available on FIRST Choice does not have specs on AndyMark's website (and even the picture of the black tubing is different from that previously posted). The link to the product website specifies 14 different specs, one of which includes the 1.6" ID tubing we've had in the past.

So... Everyone should just wait 4 more days before purchasing any pneumatic tubing for the season
