While this kind of throw is impressive, I wonder if the minibot towers will block the tubes. Has anyone tried throwing with the towers up as obstacles?

While we weren't scoring on the racks, it was definitely possible to throw around the towers and into the alliance scoring zone. Especially with the circles.

There were a lot of people trying this at the pre-ship scrimmage in Georgia, and plenty of tubes ended up flying out of bounds. It'll be interesting at competitions to watch what the human players try doing.

There is two weeks time for people to be able to drill in the motions into their body. I am guessing at the scrimmage no one really placed time into practicing because of concentrating on build season, and the fact they are not drive-team puts less priority on practice.
