Thanks everyone for the kind comments. We were disappointed to suffer communication issues during New York City, but it seems like those are of the past.
Mr. Blay, while we never hit the same place twice for our away regional, we'll both try to qualify for Championships?
Adam, the bridge wedge worked superbly. Being able to run into the bridge and onto it very smoothly (often with balls underneath the bridge) was lots of fun at competition.
PS: The more interesting part of our wedge is the slight curve we added. The wedge has a shallower angle where we first contact the bridge, because we need more force to overcome the bridge's inertia. Once the bridge gets moving, we don't need to apply as much force to keep the bridge in motion. So, we increase the slope of the curve. We also made the leading edge out of steel for a good combination of durability and slipperiness (superior to aluminum).
