We're not at a week one regional, but we were planning on and what I saw on the webcast of Kansas City is the following:

1) One team member on each side of the bump lowers the robot down onto the bump
2)The robot is pushed off the bump into one zone or the other
3)One team member crosses the bump, joining the robot and teammate
4)The robot is lifted and removed from the field as normal
