What do you guys think of these Snobunje? Do you like the one with a handle on it or just the one with a hook on each end? Let me know what you think. Thanks

I really like the one with the handle on the end... I won't go without one anymore.
I've used and seen other people use the sled-to-sled model and it works really good, but it seems like an accident waiting to happen. If one of the hooks would come off when it is really tight it could get ugly. Not saying it will happen... just that it could.

i have one of each, we love them, it is so simple to use, and as soon as you figure out the proper technique thay are amazing!
I've got the Rattler with the hook on one end and handle on other end.It's a real back saver and worth every penny $67.They also make a towing strap that attaches from ski of dead sled to bumper of towing sled.You can't over run the towing sled when you stop so no damage to towed sled.$14.You can get both from denniskirk.com and if you spend $100 there's no shipping charge and no tax
I used to be real skeptical about the snobunjie till a few years ago I bought one with the handle at the Expo. I won't be with out it now, it works great !! My first post on the new and improved forum, Wow!
work great if your not too stuck, if you're burried you'll need a shovel!!!

I had one of each but now just have the one with hooks on both ends. Sled to sled pull outs is a heck of a lot easier than trying to man handle the sno bungee by hand. Now 2 other guys in my group have the snow bungee as well.
I have the hook and handle one. Great product, easy to use. All you do is hook it around the ski, and lean back. the rider lightly throttles the machine and the force from the bunjies put a lot more force then you ever could pulling on the skis. Well worth the money, the guys I ride with were skeptical when I first rode with it but now most own one.
Another nice tool that Snobunje has is the ski strap. Basically just a strap with a big loop on one end, and a small loop on the other. Place the big loop around the BACK of the stuck sled ski and hook the small loop to your bunje. When the stuck sled gets going, it doesn't have to stop to unhook, it drives out of the big loop.
My Wife likes this as it reduces the temptation to run over me as I lay there in the snow.........

My group uses the handle and hook setup. Went to Cooke last weekend and forgot them. I really contemplated buying another one out of sheer laziness. They are back, time and maybe on day life savers.
I picked up a Rattler last year and wouldn't ride without it. It's amazing what a little extra pulling force can do...another bonus is that the stuck sled can keep driving after coming out of the hole. No need to stop for your buddy laying under your ski/sled like the old method. Even works on those HEAVY four strokes...no brand bashing here.
Where do you guy’s keep it when your riding?
I have one with the hooks hanging up in the garage, its been there for the last two years. Seems like all was was doing was pulling out everone who was stuck and not riding. It did work well.
Thank you guys very much. This is alot of good info. It looks like I will be buying one. Thanks
