Tubing tube?

Re: Tubing tube?

Don't you worry about them getting tangled? I have only been on a single tube behind a pwc but i look at that picture and just imagine the wrong wave / luck combination and a guy tangled in or them tangled together etc

It has been scientifically proven that the amount of fun increases with the square of the number of tubes, thus two tubes are four times the fun of a one tube.

We have a pair of O'Brien Super Screamers. They are 1 or 2 person, basic, flat round tubes that are very ruggedly built and loaded with grab handles. We have 4+ seasons of heavy duty use on them and no issues.

We use an Intek double quick air pump. It's manually operated so it does not disturb the peace like the electric pumps and it fills the tubes very quickly.

The ropes are the same length. They never get tangled. They bump each other often but that's half the fun.

I never worry about the ropes getting tangled, the only thing that really matters is the air time...

All of the gear is in! This next weekend the fun begins!
Turns out that the Prowler was on mfg back order. Got a West marine labeled Jolt on clearance instead. Funny- it looks to be a discontinued model....:suspicious: But for $100, what the heck.

Re: Tubing tube?

at least with a discontinued model if there is a manufacture related issue with it they will likely replace it free with a new model

My kids have love the Phantom, its got 2 seats with cushions so they aren't just on the fabric like a normal tube. It's also wide so it doesn't roll over and takes waves well. A great tube for younger or inexperienced riders.

After a brief delay at the launch (if yer boat don't start, first check the kill switch...), last weekend we had a blast on or maiden tubing trip!
To be repeated this weekend!
Thanks to all for the input. They love the Jolt!
