Wave Update

Finished putting that thing together; it worked better before I finished it!

You mean like in the video?

Yep, it worked better in the video, when I hadn't secured the whole ramp.

My final curve is too fierce. It still returns, just consistently lower.

That's the ad I saw that inspired me. I definitely have to mod my wave to get higher returns.

Is the real soccer wave not symmetrically curved: the return height varies with where you serve it?

The real one is asymmetrical. But that seemed like a PITA, especially since I made mine smaller (less wide) than the real one.
