Re: Two Questions Regarding Hurdling

Another thing to consider if this strategy is employed is the moment arm that is created by bracing against the overpass. I believe that if you are blocking and not attempting to hurdle a bump from another robot is allowed to signal a pass. Even a small bump to signal a pass may have devastating consequences.
