I agree that it was definitely slower - sand was the same though, right?
Ye same as previous nationals if thats what u mean

It was definitely slower. Although, I like it a lot more when it’s like this. I’m not sure what you mean by bendier though.
Meant to say the testing wall bends forward a little during loading. Didnt notice it during testing but the video they sent me shows it pretty clearly

Haven't received my video yet? I did make sure to give them the correct email address.

Processing close to 120 videos and uploading them takes time. Sending the video within two weeks is a reasonable.

I noticed that too. I know that this was talked about in a previous thread that I cannot find. It seems to be the "norm" when testing boomi. I think I might be more surprised to see a testing apparatus that doesn't bend at all. I actually made sure that our testing apparatus does bend slightly when testing in order to mimic what it is at most competitions.

Also, as a quick reminder (we know from personally experiencing this.....), the difference between ~50 places in Boomi at Nats can be 1mm. Yes, difficult to get context from the picture... but hey, Boomi is still an event next year....

Thanks "Crazy"
Ya, not looking for design details... just curious where all the Boomilever demi-gods were at, to give our kids a goal for next year.

Uh if you want Div B you gotta be 2500+ to be mingling with the demigods. In Div C you have to be 2000+ to be on par with the demigods. Assuming the rules don't change much next year these ranges might only go up 500-1000 at most.
