Looks like we weren't the only one on our alliance that got mangled, then! we got back to our shop the next week with our intake and front frisbee managment system shot to hell. The front roller was tweaked and loose, the bar used to stabilize the roller was bent, the mounts for the roller were bent and loose, and our ramp was bent hilariously out of whack and the 1/2" steel bar it runs had an s-bend in it! One helluva match, though- it takes some serious effort to blow up on the part of our alliance to blow up our intake and your frame in one match!
