    Watching the chain pull gave me chest pain. Bubba uses proper, gentle physics that is a lot safer. Bravo on the vid.

    Anyone who knows what their doing doesn't use a chain as a snatch strap. You put tension on the chain before you pull.

    Showing the chain, people may still not get how bringing it up in a snatch will practically jar your teeth out; as we know, that is exactly WHY you should not use a chain. But bringing up the slack on the stretch chord first, you don't have near the force of popping it, yet with the stretch ropes, you get the best of both worlds. That's because the energy is stored when you bring it up abruptly and so you save your teeth and your back, then you get a sling shot effect from the stored energy. Bottom line, is that it is a totally superior product, IMO.

    I worked in the offshore industry for years, same applies. Chains have their use and place but for snatching, a kenetic, or 'bungee' rope is the best way to go. Offshore outlawed the use of chains in lifting years ago. Either cable slings or lifting straps but no chains.....safety man will knock ya on your noggin, lol....glad there's some out there that understands 'stored energy'.....outstanding!!!

    @no candy You're wrong. According to Bubba's website, his 7/8" rope is NOT meant for ATVs and snowmobiles. The website recommends 1/2" for ATVs and snowmobiles. The 7/8" rope he used is for Jeeps.That might be OK for the Titan, providing he is not aggressive during extraction. However, the recommend size for full size pickups is Bubba's 1.25" rope. At 1:13, the video here also suggested pickup trucks use the 1.25". ATVs: www.bubbarope.com/powersports/atv-snatch-rope Pickups: www.bubbarope.com/jeeps-and-trucks/big-bubba-30-foot

    Hi Morty, Good question. The different size diameter ropes have different breaking strengths and will also work differently with different weight loads. For example, a lighter truck will not have enough weight to properly stretch a 2" diameter power stretch recovery rope thus not benefiting from the shock load properties of the recovery rope. So you want to have a Power Stretch recovery rope that has a breaking strength around 3x - 4x the weight of the vehicle being recovered. Hope that make sense.

    Marty, we are estimating your truck weighs around 11k lbs. - 13k lbs.For this our 1 1/4" diameter with a breaking strength of 52,300 lbs. should work just fine. 20' or 30' will work the same.

    Because the video is by the ones wanting to sell you the rope. Just buy it directly and save over half of the money. Make your own soft shackles. Easy, quick, cheap.

    Actually, because different vehicles weights vary greatly you need different diameter ropes with different breaking strengths for different vehicles. The larger the diameter the higher the breaking strength. Also, different sized Power Stretch Recovery Ropes will stretch based on weight. You need more weight to stretch a larger rope than a smaller rope and the amount of stretch you produce will determine how well the rope will work. Finally, we do not think you should pay for a larger more expensive rope when you all you need is a smaller less expensive size especially when the smaller rope may work better. A good safe working load for recovery is 3.5 x the weight of the vehicle you are pulling out. All of our products have certified breaking strengths. If we can help answer any other questions please le us know. BR

    the rope will snap but not whip (it just drops) like steel cable, the CHAIN however is just ad dangerous as steel wire, even more so since a broken link can become shrapnel. get hit a broken rope and you will feel a sting no matter for a time, if it whip you enough you get some noticeable bruising, but never a laceration or broken bone like with chain or steel "rope". Still you want to keep a distance in case something else unforeseen goes wrong like one of the vehicles goes out of control.
