Amen to this. The only trouble we had with mecanum was the bridges in 2012. It wasn't impossible, we still balanced. Since it's only a 16 degree angle, it shouldn't be impossible to get over it.
Breakaway year, they had larger bumps. We went up them fine with mecanum also. Given, they were carpeted.

Some teams will struggle with the mecanum, some won't.
