Re: 2010 Lesson Learned: The Negative

2 problems:

1. Inflation of game pieces. They gave us a specific psi in the manual, so why didn't they stick to that? This gave us nightmares with tuning autonomous, because the flat vs. inflated balls were kicking drastically different distances. Couldn't they have taken 12 balls, pumped them up correctly, and rotated them every 5 matches to make sure they were kept inflated?

2. The 1/4 - 1in platform under the bump. It caused so many carrying penalties. Why couldn't they have extended the wood all the way to the walls, to make an even playing field?
