Maverick America Bungee consists of Tygon ½” Norprene rubber with 3x slow stretch technology for even pressure. It is broken into 2x 50ft sections for a maximum stretch of 300’. Maverick American’s Mark used Norprene in the late 90’s for Wahoo to 90lbs and several #100+ tuna after the blue water testing from Pioneers Terry Maas yielded results showing the highest return of giant tuna landings w/o failures compared to more conventional materials used for spearfishing bungees. We chose this products although it is the most expensive tubing material on the market (4 x the cost compared to typical rubber Bungee tubing) for its proven record of resistance to wear and most importantly it’s unique “slow” tiring stretch return compared to other types of synthetics. The Maverick crew has witnessed fish slowly dragging backwards after explosive take-offs with Neoprene’s substantially reducing the chances of tear-offs.
Formulated for flexural resistance and high temperatures, Norprene® Tubing does not easily crack or deteriorate even in physically demanding applications. Formulated to withstand high temperatures frequently, Norprene® Tubing will outlast and outperform virtually all other tubings. Even following extended exposure to heat and ozone, Norprene® Tubing will not crack or deteriorate which is common when using traditional rubber tubings.
