I have a hill at my yard that's like 10
Or 20 degrees somewhere in there that's like a 40 foot hill. Would it be better just to hook a bungee up to a post and use the hill, or build a drop in? +k to people who help

Drop in. Banshees you need atleast 2 people to pull back and it's a lot of effort. And They are more expensive than drop ins

I can build a banshee out of boat rope and rubber tubing for 70 bucks. I think I might do the hill and if it doesn't work out I'll take the stuff I already have and make a drop in

Personally i'd build a drop in. I mean everyone else does it and they all work good. Don't risk anything else because bungies cost $$$$$. And you can make a summer setup for like 100 bucks

I built one on a hill for my 13 ft rail, it's not super steep and it's 15ft long. However I need a lot of soap and water to keep it fast enough, I might need some construction fencing/lattice but we'll see. Anyways, here's me going for a rff front swap pretz 2 which i haven't gotten yet (i have lff almost on lock for some reason though).
