So in those pictures is the carabiner the release mechanism?
Is the clamp the piece you use to adjust how much cord you use?

Thanks.
There is a pin that goes thru the carabiner. Pull the pin to release the bottle. The clamps are indeed the piece you use to adjust the cord.
Hi, my partner and I are trying to work on an equation for our bungee so we do not have to test so much. Does anyone have any tips to go about creating an equation?

I would recommend using graphing software (I prefer Excel). Type in as many data points as you are able to test then graph distance vs mass at each height or distance vs height for each mass. You can use the graphs to extrapolate the data points you weren't able to test.I've found that you don't necessarily need an equation and that, if you do decide to use one, everyone's bungee is unique and thus requires a different equation.
