    Default Minimum Length Bumper Segments

    <R08>-A states "BUMPERS must be build in segments, with a minimum length of six inches..." <R08>-J states "Corners and joints between BUMPER segments may be filled with short vertically oriented pool noodle..." Will bumpers be measured by the length of the plywood backing, or the plywood backing + any vertically oriented pool noodles used for corners? i.e. Can we have a minimum length 6" bumper, with less than 6" of plywood.

    Cheers,

    Please refer to Team Update #2. As indicated in Rule <R08>, BUMPERS must include a solid plywood backing (as well as the pool noodles, clamping angles, and fabric cover). The length of the the bumper assembly that includes all of these items is what determines the "bumper length."
