Re: How Fast Can You Shoot 4 Discs?

We have it down to 250 milliseconds per disk, we can do faster...but the last disk falls a bit if we go faster than what is shown in the video.

I timed the cycles in this video, and we are 0.9 seconds to get all 4 disk out. 3 are in the air before the first one hits the goal.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?featur...&v=yI_XldiEXFM

1st cycle = 1.7 second (we always delay the first one for aimming)
2nd cycle = 0.9 seconds (full auto shooting)
3rd cycle = 0.8 seconds (full auto shooting)
4th cycle = 3.5 seconds (slight hang up disk 1)
5th cycle = 0.9 seconds (full auto shooting)

Our photographer Wayne, did a good job capturing this here is an example:

One in the goal, two in the air.

Good luck to all those going to Championship, sorry we won't see you guys there.
