Would any team have the audacity to go up on the ramp when another (enemy) team is hanging on the bar, and push them up like a pendulum and hold them there at a high angle, then release them so that they swing into another (enemy) team? That would be intense.

Just wondering..

I think you've got a point, but since you can't lift any opponet off I think there will be a high quality and that it is a must for a good sturdy robot to be built to prevent from alot of damage

That's harder to set up than building a robot that juggles the balls with it's partner. If you can pull it off...props to you!

Ouch! It could happen. I'm wondering if a robot should get double points if it hangs from the bar 'by its toes', ie; upside down? Or get extra points for looping the bar?
