It was a solid ramp with anti-slip tape, but the robot needed some momentum to get up and over. With 1" to spare on each side it would take some fine driving to make it work.
They are going to Cleveland, so they may get it to work then. We were pleased to get asked by them to practice on it.

Well sounds like they should be able to get it all figured out. we've tested ours so we know it works but it'll definitely be fun at comp.
