Re: 399's ramp release.

right now it's aluminum, and it still looks fine after ~20 pulls. We think it's a tad too heavy so we're trying some other stuff right now. We also lowered the amount of lexan to one piece, so it doesn't slam as hard. it goes out a little slower and is less violent.

You should see our miniature version of this though, that thing really slams out. All of our mentors were worried about the safety of the large one, lol.
