Re: Upside down Frisbees; can your team get them out?

We bent some plastic, attached it to our pusher and put double sided tape on the plastic so the tackiness of the tape will prevent the pusher from lifting the disk.
we spent a lot of time making sure our discs don't flip upside down when feeding. On the rare chance we get an upside down disc, we added a 2nd pneumatic trigger with a larger profile to flick out the upside down disc.
