After some practice we have modified the intake slightly, instead of double wrap all the way around, we do four straight strips across the roller. With the spiraled rubber it would tend to funnel the frisbees to one side preventing us from picking up two frisbee's. With the straight rubber it solved the problem!

Can't wait to see the climb now

I was definitely looking at that exact stuff yesterday, debating whether or not to order it! Thought it would be too stiff. I do believe I will place an order now thanks to your input. Thanks!
