No. Add in the fact they are designed to be removed for different configurations is not helping.

I am really concerned for district championships. It will be very interesting to see what these defenses look like after 6 weeks of events.

One way teams can help is to not run full speed autonomous routines into the draw bridge, sally port, cdf, portcullis, and low bar.
