I searchbarred and found two pretty weak threads on this product. I just found out it is available to buy in town here in Hali, NS.  Everyone should check out the site it is a pretty good idea for when you want to get speed for tricky urban with no drop in. 

Here is the siteeeee  http://www.bansheebungee.com/  check errr out.  Pretty legit in my opinion.

Has anyone on here ever used one and if so is it worth a try?

My friend made their website... She is trying to get me to buy one but I haven't needed it it yet. I want to try one and see if I could pull it myself. If it takes 2 or 3 guys would it be worth it? Then just a push or a pull from them would be the free equivalent right?  I think it would be super fun for skim boarding tho...

oh unknowning peoples. The Bungee is AWESOME. I do not own one, but I tried it once and it is amazing. The push= max speed 3 miles an hour. The Bungee boosted me onto a 10 foot concrete structure with more than enough speed to ride across its flat surface and jump off the other side. If you have an extra $250 BUY IT!!! I dont have the cash right now, but when I come across it, watch out.

use a rope, skiers hold one end, and make a pully type thing on the rail, another guy stands behind skier, adn pulls/runs/drives, with the rope attached away from rail.  boom, skier has motion, for 5$, you can send the 245$ to me, your welcome.

i have the 10ft one and its pretty sick. You deffinatly need 2 ppl to pull it back. id bring at least 4 ppl especaily if your filming. if you dont pull it far it sucks. You have to pull it til its really tight, and then take like 3 more steps.

I own one, and shit is legit.  It may seem a little expensive for the 20 footer, but its worth it.  You don't have to drag around a drop in, and its so versitile you can do anything from rails to jumps to whatever you can come up with.  It is a workout and a half pulling it back but its worth it for how much speed you launch with.  I also made an easier way to pull it back for 15-25 bucks too
