[FRC Blog] Don’t Eat the Noodles

[Thad House]

The only problem I see for using them for bumpers is that they are not hollow. In years past bumpers have been required to use hollow noodles. Unless they changed that, these would not work well for that.

2014: R21 C. use a stacked pair of approximately 2 ½ in. round, petal, or hex “pool noodles” (solid or hollow) as the BUMPER
cushion material (see Figure 4-8).

They changed it a few years back. I don't remember when but I think 2013.
