Wood vs. Steel Barrier

This is a notice for all teams who are using the wooden barrier for their prototypes. We made a steel barrier to specifications and the differences are significant. We were easily able to go over the wooden barrier but the robot gets stuck halfway across the metal barrier. We highly suggest that teams attempt to procure an accurate sample to simulate the barrier conditions at competitions.

If any teams who are close enough want to test their robot but are not able to get a barrier, PM me and we can set up a time to test your robot at KING TeC's build site.
