Slim Jim

I was curious if any teams were looking to use a device similar to a slim jim to go under a robot and losen their grip while we play king of the hill? Does anyone see this strategy as "intentional damage to another robot" possibly? We've already figured out how to get around these two problems, but I am curious who's looking at doing it.

I can see the same gripper that picks up crates as being able to at least provide upward force against another robot but a whole device i don't see happening. (we actually have another way for an opponent robot to lose traction but that ones a secret )

Slim Pickens....

No, but we are thinking about a slim-jim kind of device to slide under a robot who might be protecting a stack.....

Does that count?
