You ask LaTisha to determine the distance the brake anchor has to be placedaway from the base of the ending tree so the brake will just reach the tree.
Remember, the cable is attached to the starting tree 16 feet above the
ground.
• LaTisha measures 24 feet away from the base of the tree because
the bungee cord is 24 feet long.
• She adds 18 extra feet, to allow the bungee cord to stretch to
capacity.
• LaTisha says the brake anchor should be placed 42 feet from the
base of the ending tree.
