    At first I thought they had it rigged so that both bows apply force to the arrow. But on closer inspection I see that is not the case, which seems a lost opportunity. @PugJesus, do you think the image is accurate, or did the artist miss a key point?

      Interestingly enough, I believe both bows do apply force to the arrow. Chinese siege crossbows sometimes sport a similar setup. The fiber connection allows it to bend back with more force with both prods.
