Go to Post Being called coach for the first time by some of my team. My dad was a football player and when I told him that story he teared up a bit. Me? A Coach? - MysterE [more]

Re: pool noodles

Well this escalated quickly...
I know Target will sell you a box of 28 pool noodles and I imagine other stores like it will do the same, although I haven't checked the prices.
What I find interesting in all this is that no official bumper material is sold. Like if GenericCorpRobotics just suddenly made the filler for bumpers and you just bought sections of it that might save a lot of hassle.
On the flip side creative thinking with bumpers has lead to some recent proposals like more then one material providing a gripping surface or a slick surface. Personally I have faith in the students to design robots so why not at some point try having bumper rules be more like robot design rules.
I imagine implementing rules that made bumper design much more flexible would push some teams to try really cool things.
