has anyone used them like the banshe bungie do they work well because ive heard that their dope but my friend the other day said they were a pain in the ass. the other solution is building a drop in ramp and driving it around and setting it up. so which is better?

I saw a rail jam sponsored by Banshee Bungie a few weeks ago in Welches. It looked like it worked pretty well - they had tied the bungie to a tree and set up a jib with a Toyota FJ. Some of those kids got a lot of speed - I don't know about 30mph, but enough to launch themselves pretty well given the small scale of the set up. I think the real problem was that it took a couple of people to stretch the bungie back, you would need a team of 4 or 5 ideally, and it looked like it got really tiring after a while.

They're probably measuring with a longboard or something with minimal friction.

common sense dude, drop its are a bitch but im sure that there better, i would think that a bungee would kind of throw me off. But if i could get a bungee for pretty cheap and i had money i would go with the bungee. I mean it saves you a huge hassle and makes so mny more features possible

If possible a great way would be to attach the bungee to a car hitch. You stand in the same place, if you want to go farther, have the car pull farther out, if you want to go slower, pull the car in a little. It would work really well, but at that point, you might even be able to just use a rope and have the car tow you in.
