i really wouldnt want to try and stop typhoon 2 with a piece of rope or such device. Have u considered that even if u were allowed to have this device, ur robot would get sucked in and take a few direct hits straight from the cutters (it takes quite a few large hits to stop us). Remember that a cluster would be 33kg, or 66kg max and i really wouldnt want to put a middleweight or lightweight type robot against our disc at full tilt.

I have used our own robot as an example but dont think i am dismissing the other spinners out there, some are equally as damaging but ours came to mind first (wonder why )
