Understood, I guess this was just me being skeptical that something as aerodynamically unstable and with as low relative inertial as the innertubes would be able to be aimed well enough to actually land and stay in the scoring zone with any reasonable reliability. Should probably keep my comments to myself until I (or someone else) actually attempts this, though.
