Team 1649 Florida Regional video

Just wanted to share with everyone a video that one of our mentors put together re-capping our Florida Regional experience.

Great video. Your robot was very unique and great fun to watch (plus the “garbage lid hat” I saw a few people wearing was creative!). Thanks for including footage of when the robot righted itself; that was such a memorable moment at the 2008 FL Regional.

Side Note: Was your team at the '06 FL Regional & Mission Mayhem with a another great robot? If so, I don’t think you had the EMS name (which I like).

Thanks! I agree that was one of the most memorable moments of the event for us. Too bad doing it gets us a penalty… but since it was so early in the match, we were able to more than make up the score :slight_smile:

Yeah, in '06 we won the Florida Regional with SPAM and Krunch, and had lots of fun at Mission Mayhem. I remember you guys had a great robot also. Our team name used to be Lakerbotix. This year we have team members from more schools, and we also became a 4H club, so we decided to come up with a new image.

How could I forget that you were part of the '06 winning alliance?! Your team produces some amazing, innovative robots. This video is a nice keepsake as your team continues to grow. (Plus I enjoyed hearing Dean K.; I was not in the arena for his speech.)

I just wanted to second that you guys have a great robot, and a great team. Your team was always very gracious and pleasant to work with… I wish we had more opportunities to compete together! Thats what champs are for though :slight_smile:
