Re: Shooter opposite wall
We used tape that has a surface similar to a corkboard opposite our two plaction shooter wheels. The compression was pretty massive, as well- I can measure it tomorrow, but the frisbee bends quite a bit. Compression wasn't pre-determined, we built our shooter to adjust compression and tested until we got the best range. Due to these factors, we got some wicked spin on the frisbee, enough to make it near impossible to catch at outreach events where we were shooting to people.
