One of the essential tools for practicing bungee jumping rope is an elastic characteristics, which have to do with its composition and flexibility.

Indeed, the elastic cord must be able to stretch 400% and have the ability to support up to a ton of weight thanks to its conformation thousand interlocking strips of natural latex with silicone, zinc oxide and additive depletion.

Equipment

While the equipment involved in bungee jumping is quite basic, the importance of its proper use and working condition cannot be overstated.

  • Harnesses
    • Ankle harnesses securing the bungee to the body
    • Many people add a body harness (as used in rock climbing) to increase security
  • Tie-Off
    • A sturdy and stable structure from which to anchor the bungee cord, i.e. steel railings of a bridge or safety fence
    • Specific weight-bearing knots
  • Airbags
    • Some services – particularly those using a continuous location – place an airbag, webbing, or similar safety «sling» at the bottom of the jump space, to provide a safety space in the unlikely event of a fall.

Proper Dress

Though there is no universal uniform, some companies employ a dress code to ensure safety. The following are basic recommendations:

  • Casual outdoor clothing that does not interfere with proper harnessing
  • Absence of flying fabric or objects (including jewellery and unsecured glasses or even contact lenses) that could cause injury or obstruct vision.

Individuals who are pregnant or have high or abnormal blood pressure; an irregular heartbeat; leg, back, breathing and circulatory system disorders; head injuries or recent surgery are discouraged from bungee jumping and should receive a checkup and advice from their doctors before bungee jumping.
