Re: Roller/Gatherer Test

We too tested our prototype rollers with pool noodles. Yet we found that at high speeds the pool noodle leaves some "noodle fuzz" behind on the balls. While I will not argue that it is 'damage' to a ball, we feel the residue is a potential gray area or complaint that may arise at competition. Ergo, we will test a different material this week.

I'm interested to see how the heating pipe insulation holds up at speed.
