Banshee Bungee Anchoring Point Questions

Just tried out my bungee for the first time today and it is the greatest thing ever. TBH, the lead rope (yellow) that it comes with does not look very strong at all. In some videos i have seen people with like recovery (tow) straps for like a car, replacing the skimpy yellow line. Are these things practical or safe to use? Anybody tried using Carabiners for rock climbing to attach the lead line to the bungee? It would kinda act as a quick release thing instead of having to loop the yellow rope through the bungee every time. Last question, anybody else attach two handles to their bungee? Im thinking of buying just a wake board handle and throwing it on.

Any help would be appreciated.

mods feel free to move to gear talk if needed.

thanks in advance.
 
Two handles is a must!

Google a few sailing knots, that way you don't have to loop it through every time

The clamps and caribeaners work great too!

The yellow rope is pretty strong man you just need to know your knots.

Couple bunny ears isn't going to help your cause!
 
right now i am looping the rope to the bungee by pulling the end through the loop, putting the other end through the loop. So now its attached to the actual bungee. Then i loop it around the tree and feed the whole bungee through that end of the loop. Is this a strong way? If this makes any sense at all.
 
triple repost here, but this is how i feed it through. Is this a strong way to do it?

my question is why do you re do it everytime?

i meant learn some notes to adjust how much of the extra yellow rope you use
 
after each session i undo it so it is a bit more tidy to store. I will try and just leave it on next time.

NOW i understand what you mean about the knots,

Thanks
