Past competition video archives available anywhere?

I am told that there were some previous FRC challenges that utilized these large track balls...

Is there an archive of past FRC competition videos or past team videos where current teams can view how previous teams handled these huge balls?

Can anyone provide a link to these?

Re: Past competition video archives available anywhere?

We in FIRST have never used a ball with this kind of weight. We've used balls that were large before (though I think these are larger yet), but they were simply inflated with no bladder.

Here's some preview footage from an '04 Discovery Channel special with some clips of the giant 2x ball used that year: http://shopping.discovery.com/product-64786.html
