How fast truly does a 10 foot Banshee Bungee get going? I can’t find much information online

depends on how far you can stretch it. you get 4-5 ppl pullin on that thing, you'll get going.

That being said, everyone uses winches because theyre faster and easier to use.

JETSKIDEATEREven the 10 foot?

the longer the bungie, the faster your can go. i have no idea the difference, I think I've only used the 10ft? i cant recall, sorry man.

Bungies are only really worth it if youve got 4+ people. I think a portable drop in is more useful

it aint easy having no friends ...
i throw snowballs at my winch lever , its like russian roulette for urban sending!
i need one of those automatic drones that can get all of this action in one shot, and possibly tow me?

eheatheveryone uses winches

independent fact checkers determined this is false

But yes, every established crew who's serious about street skiing regardless of natural speed (or lack thereof) uses a winch

Enough speed for basically any down rail, not really enough speed for something like a longer flat rail or something uphill
