WTF is that bungee thing

[Inness]

hey guys.

you don't use a bungee, you need a climbing rope ideally.

[Cranks]

all you need is a rope you can tie fairly tight between 2 objects, then you walk on it.

not rope, tubular webbing.

not rope, tubular webbing.

it sounds great but i have limited money and im spending it on board materials.

the videos are inspiring.

[palidon11]

dude you could easily get one up for $50. i'm looking at making one, 5 carabiners (ovals are about $5 a piece) and webbing is cheap... all you need man.

Looks sweet, those knots look like a bitch though! Really should take a course in knot tying. That'd be like +1 man points.

[palidon11]

easy.
