My guess is that there will be a bunch of robots that can make it to the goals as fast as any extension on any robot. I also would put money on any extension over about 8 feet being ripped off or bent fairly early in the competition. If we were to see a long extension being extended, I would probably try to get as high of a side load on it as possible to try to get it not to retract correctly by bending it. I am not a mechanical engineer but it will be tough to put a lightweight long lever on your robot and not have it get bent.
I am sure someone this year will try though, so we will see. Matt P.S. A strategy would be also to block any moving extension with the robot and any goals in the scoring position which would be eye to eye with the bot.
