Re: What is a hurdle?
To me this rule is intended to prevent teams from creating a robot that will just spit the ball up and back down into the bot on the other side of the overpass. I know my former team in 2006 was able to get the robot to simply pop the ball out of the flywheel and back into the hopper at low enough of a speed. This rule is intended to prevent such an action from allowing a team to score an astronomical amount of points in such a manner.
