Re: Have you tried parking on the Batter?

*Speaking from the position of never having done this.*

Couldn't you pull fully onto the batter and then back yourself down to purposefully set the wheels statically against the lip? When the power is cut, you wouldn't then be sliding down creating extra momentum to carry the wheels over.

Of course I'm suggesting this when the driver is 55+ feet away looking through defenses...but I think it should work. The kids thought I was out of my head when I had them stand 48' away (length of the classroom) from a pair of back-to-back chairs representing the low goals the Monday after kickoff...and then told them it is really another 8 or so feet further. Now they understand why I did it.
