I think so. You are spinning it with the cim and then shooting it with the piston?

But in all seriousness, I had the same idea but scrapped it after realizing that when you go to punch the disc forward, the lip of the disc gets caught on the the spinner. There are ways around this, but sadly my team didn't have the resources to pursue this idea.

Actually, inside sources tell me this is their 30 point climbing mechanism.

The piston also adds a bit of putty onto the Frisbee so the weight sensors register slightly more points.
