Anybody ever use the snowbunjie rattler?

[Ex-Member]

and kinda actually enjoy getting people unstuck

Sounds like you and I need to ride together a few times

If you take a loop of strong cord ( I use a heavy dog leash) and loop it around the back of the ski then hook the SB to that, you can back way up, pull the SB up to your chest, then as you FALL backwards have the rider of the stuck sled hit it.....
The stuck sled can whip right by you and not have to stop because as he goes by the loop just comes off the Back of the ski......
Awsome tool.

Static = Stationary
Kinetic = Energy of motion.
The motion is the elastic pulling energy from the stretch of the bunjee.
Google "Snobunje kinetic energy".

OK, I'll say it - the word you guys are looking for is potential energy. Wind up the bunje with potential (stored) energy, which then transforms to kinetic once the sled starts moving.

You use your body weight by pulling on the SB then leaning/falling backwards stretching the elastic to the max--then hit the throttle and the sled will move ahead. The trick is to co-ordinate the throttle with the energy of the SB.

worked so well i started selling them. if your really hung up the cobra and the rattle together work great. have had 4 bunjes on one sled to get it out. sure saved alot of backs and work. i hook my rattler around my handel bars. doesnt ever get in the way

I have the shorter model (Rattler I think) and use a 6' extension rope to make it long enough to pull by hand. I found the extension kept me from getting run over by the sled when it pops out of the hole. I have single handed getting unstuck by using a parachute cord hooked to the throttle and pulling on the snowbungie.

Thats inventative.

if you ride in the trees get a rope winch also you can hook it to your snow bungie and give your sled gas and pull your self right out I will never take my wife riding with out having my snow bungie with me it saves your body.

The snow bungy is the snowmobilers dream, 10,000 feet and pulling sleds out by hand is not fun. Just make sure you hook onto the front spindles not on to the the ski's for the most safe results.

we have a cobra and 4 rattlers in our group, if you hook the 4 rattlers to the cobra to the sled you can basically pull it out of a creek with 4 people, its amazing what they will do when used right. i thought the price was way to much until i used my buddies, now i never ride without it!!! i coil my rattler around the bars and it works great
