Tell me, (I wasn't a part of aerial assist) did bumpers fall off often in aerial assist?

You should watch some of our matches from 2014 then, I would wager that we had the fastest robot on the field that year. We were almost max weight and nearly all of it was less than a foot off the ground, I don't care if you have good bumpers when a 140 pound robot slams into you at 2% the speed of sound(Yes really) you will feel it. The pool noodles went completely flat in the corners, the maple plywood shattered several times.
This year is still worse though.
