Wristbands.

Hi there!

I have a question about the wristbands. Mainly: What are they like? Plastic or cloth? Personally I'd prefer the cloth one because most of the time you'll be able to wear those year-round. I've seen people wear their festival bands for over 3 years and they've worn down to a couple threads, its cool

Examples:

Cloth:

Plastic:

Which one?

Burning Man does not use wrist bands, the only exception being for the "Gerlach Shuttle" (a shuttle that costs $5 and takes you into the nearest town of Gerlach Nevada and back )http://afterburn.burningman.com/04/comm ... depot.html

And then your wristband is removed once you re-enter the city.

Really, the wristbands are overkill once they've given you the ass branding.

Yea, must not have been like the one I got. I was stamped USDA PRIME, right on the ass and by Sensei no less.

Wrong thinking. Make your own wristbands and give them away at the event.

BMORG also uses wrist bands at the Black Rock City International Airport for pilots and passengers so they can go back and forth to their planes so if your really want a wristband fly in but fly in early they ran out last year.

the only exception being for the "Gerlach Shuttle"

I suspect that the passenger bands for the airport are the same as the bands for the shuttle. There's also a different band for the pilots.

I do not believe their is any difference between Pilot and passenger at least not when I worked there..never took the bus know nothing about that

The bus bands were a different color each day, the tape/film plastic type (tyvek?), quite inexpensive. I seem to remember writing the time on them with sharpie, but I could be wrong. I'll have to ask my co-volunteers what they recall.

Hello Atar,
Personally I prefer rubber wristbands because they are durable and they not loose their color with time.

Well, after enduring over 10 years of arduous testing, the verdict is in..
