Bungee Jumping Equipment

2 July, 2010 (18:58) | Bungee jumping | By: admin

The elastic rope first utilised in bungee jumping, and still applied by numerous commercial operators, is factory-produced braided shock cord. This consists of quite a few latex strands enclosed in a tough outer cover. The outer cover may well be applied when the latex is pre-stressed, to ensure that the cord’s resistance to extension is already considerable at the cord’s natural length. This gives a harder, sharper bounce. The braided cover also provides significant durability advantages. Other operators, including A J Hackett and most southern-hemisphere operators, use unbraided cords in which the latex strands are exposed (pictured at correct). These give a softer, longer bounce and can be home-produced.

Although there is really a certain elegance in using only a simple ankle attachment, accidents in which participants became detached led a lot of commercial operators to use a body harness, if only as a backup for an ankle attachment. Body harnesses are usually derived from climbing equipment rather than parachute equipment.

Retrieval techniques vary according to the site employed. Mobile cranes supply the greatest recovery speed and flexibility, the jumper being lowered rapidly to ground level and detached. A lot of other mechanisms have been devised according towards the nature of the jump platform and also the need for a rapid turn-around.
