Re: Bumper Material

[R28]
C.use a stacked pair of 2-˝ in. “pool noodles” as the bumper cushion material which completely covers the plywood. Cushion material may extend up to 2-˝ in. beyond the end of the plywood.
D.be covered with a rugged, smooth cloth. The cloth must completely enclose all exposed surfaces of the plywood and pool noodle material. The fabric covering the Bumpers must be a solid red or blue in color. Visually, the red or blue must be as close to the corresponding color in the FIRST logo as reasonable (i.e. to a reasonably astute observer, they appear similar). The only markings permitted on the Bumper fabric cover are the team number (see Rule [R35]).

We are using the specified pool noodle. Hope this helps.
