We have the same game in Holland, called "elastieken" (lit: elasticing).

In Australia, we called it 'elastics' too!
Spent many a lunchbreak doing all the odd, complex moves required. This or yo-yo, handball, marbles, practicing handstands and backbends etc like all the trendy gymnast girls.
No Wii or playstation or PC to sully our young minds. Ah, those were the days. Now get off my lawn.
