Are sharp objects against the rules in the vex competition...im not familiar bc my school only competes in FRC and this is the first year in VEX

[DuelingMastery]

btw it doesn't sound like foam in this video sounds like some plastic or something

[AntonOlsen]

They are very rigid, not like foam rubber, more like a heavy Styrofoam. The PE is the same stuff milk jugs are made of.

k guys thanks i'm in the compition so thanks would suction cups like hold it

[DuelingMastery]

hey what are the blocks made of and how heavy are they

[AntonOlsen]

The blocks are made of a dense foam and weigh about 16 grams, or .56 ounces each.

[AntonOlsen]

The foam is a Crosslink PE (Polyethylene) if anyone cares the exact type.

Cant wait for the competition here at Cali. Me an my team have to think of a new robot now. Great vid.

[InnovationFirst]

They should be available on vexrobotics soon after we get them in. These are prototypes so the final product may differ slightly.

[SupahxAzn]

i think you can buy it online at the vex robotics website
