anyone have one or ever do it?
its so much fun you go so fast my friend has one and we set it up in the flats behind his house and almost make it into the channel (pretty far away) were gonna soon take it down the street to the beach and launch off some little waves.
just wonderin if anyone else does it

I had no idea what that meant, so I looked it up. Now I really want to own one.

It seems like a lot of work to pull the bungie out but I guess if you have enough people it's not that bad. It's the poor man's winch!

GnarShredd, yeah its not to hard if you have more than 2 people

nick, for sure sounds fun!
... did you surf today it was pretty good considering what its been.

JeffKnox, its a little weird at first but i dont think that the bungee would break or become ununited from the anchor but if it did that wouldnt be good haha
