Since you are only 95 lbs, add weight as low as you can and as centered as you can in the robot. A massive steel part an inch above the ground in the middle of the robot would be ideal.
Another potential cause is to check your drive train speed controllers, and move the brake/coast jumpers to coast mode. Also, check your driver to make sure they are not slamming the joysticks to full forward and reverse, you want to smoothly ease into all movements.

@artdutra04 In at least one of the videos we were definitely doing that, but that was to resolve an jamming problem so that accentuated the rocking. Typically the joystick motions are much smoother, but it still resulting in tipping. Hence the thread
