I liked the flaps they installed at NC. They were basically layered duct tape (maybe gorilla tape). The nice part was they still flexed like the cloth flaps. After the fix they lasted the rest of the competition including elims where robots were running into them at high speeds. I am hoping that the duct tape design is carried through to the rest of the NC competitions.
