Yes the infamous zip tie skirt.
It's to help from balls rolling under, though it seems alot of the zip ties were pushed inward for this pic(they need to be out a bit to scoot along the balls)
it goes the perimeter of our chassis I believe...thoug the back looks a bit too bald (the shooter is actially the back of the bot, this is a back shot, though we actively switch which side is front/back in a match with our Reverse Drive switch).

Nice looking bot.
Nice shielding of your shooter.
I agree with MarsBOtkid, you may want to consider putting a shield OVER the camera. Allot of balls will be dropping from the sky The servos won't take much punishment till the gears strip. Just my $0.02.

How well does the zip tie skirt work on carpet?

Works pretty well actually, just got to make sure the zip ties are facing the right direction.
