Re: 2007 VCU Regional

One team that had a simple ramp had channel ramp that only got your 4 inches or 15 points. 1655 has their ramps U shaped so you are guided in. A lot of teams have it L shaped to guide it in but they end up falling through a space and beaching themselves.
Steepness/clearance is proving to be an issue. That is often solved with a simple push. But it's nothing that is no expected. There are always little things. THAT is part of the fun of a first weekend regional!
