definitely go for the 20 footer man. it costs a little more but is totally worth it. i bought a 10 footer for this past season and barely used it at all because it sucks dick on flat ground if you dont got mad people to pull it. the 10 footer does work good on rails with a lil bit of a hill behind em but i'd say the 20 is worth it if you're putting out atleast $150 for it

4-5 if you want a forceful sling shot, you can get away with 3 tho
The 10ft does not do work. Waste of money defiantly go with a 20ft

The 20ft Bungee is definitely more versatile and the one we sell the most of. Like the other posters have said the 10ft has its uses, but is kinda limited.

My crew has been using the 10 footer for two years and it works awesome. We have never had any problems with speed for a normal handrail with a flat surface leading up to it. Plus it only takes 2 people to pull it back. If you know how to pop right you don't need very much speed anyways.

I can see a need for the 20 footer if you are trying to do gaps and shit, but for a normal handrail the 10 footer will be perfect.

i have heard of people trying to braid surgical tubing togather and apperently it can work if done right. problem is, if one thing were to go bad in your system, someone would be fucked

Friend has a 10ft one and it sucks mad dick unless you got 3+ people to pull it back. 20ft one works so much better, and you only need two to pull it back and you get more speed from it.
