Go to Post Being in FIRST and putting the focus on the robot is like building a robot and putting the focus on the bandsaw (or mill or lathe, or whatever you do your machining with). The robot is a tool we use to play the game, the game is a tool we use to inspire and teach. - GeeTwo [more]

Since the blade spins in a circle, he can drive into a robot forwards or backwards and get either of those effects.

I guess I would be worried about spinner bots too. They could hit you and spin you before you can get them up to your blade. Also, I assume that wedge is designed in such a way that you will fall back rightside up if you flip?
