I am trying to decipher what inner tube I should buy. I am looking for something that will give me a thrill but not too much thrill.. and something that more than one person can ride.

I really like the U tube. Has anyone riden this inner tube?? What inner tubes do you like to ride??

We have the Big Bertha and it's pretty fun to ride. We also have a towable that looks like a jetski that a couple people can ride at the same time. You can really sling that one around behind the Speedster--- Personally, I prefer the kneeboard over the tubes.

Cool!!

Big Bertha is fun... it is so big!!

I have always wanted to try to knee board. I love waterskiing, but have never had the chance to kneeboard. Thanks for the advice I might look into buying one of those instead.

I agree about the U Tube...I was thinking of getting one myself as the look like alot of fun and maybe not as painful as the laydown tubes. I have 2 ....the Seabiscuit and the 3 person sitdown....this ones for the girls...! Unless they are daring and want a ride on the Bikini removing Biscuit!!!!

Kneeboards are fairly inexpensive, even for good ones and are pretty easy to ride. I also have a wakeboard which can take sometime to learn but can wreak havoc on your back. I really would love to try the new Skyskis.

The Seabiscuit is the most entertaining for the Driver in my opinion!

That thing is nuts!! I am not sure if you could see the person inside though??

[tiggerman]

The front looks clear, but I think you're right. The only way you could see them is to turn really hard and SLING THEIR ASS OUT of it!!!!! kidding.......

Has anyone ever used one of those high flow inflaters for their towables??? I was thinking about trying one out from Canadian Tire. I think it is just a compressor but it says that it is made specifically for inflatables and has a high flow air ratio.

I think I will just stick to the the U tube and I am not too fond of the sea biscuit

I bought one to inflate a queen size airbed- it works great on the towables as well. It's not a compressor though, just an oversized "hairdryer". Has a hose on it with a couple attachments for inflating just almost anything.

Do you guys or girls...tie on to the Ski pole or clip on to the tow ring for tubing?? The last time I tied on to the pole I ended up cutting the rope because I couldn't get it untied!!! It was a cheap rope anyway...!!

[Jenny]

clip on the tow ring.

[tiggerman]

The toe/tow ring We use the pole for kneeboarding/wake boarding, although the pole isn't really tall enough to get serious air on the wakeboard....

[Kevin Leclair]

clip on the tow ring.

The best that thing that we have found to do is buy a one of those "mountaing climbing" clips from like REI or some place like that. Tie your rope to that and then all you have to do is clip and unclip, simple as that!

[tiggerman]

Cool- use a caribiner.... who'd 'a thunk it?

[Not$oCoolX]

Anyone who wants cheap stuff goto Costco when the recieve there inventory, if you have one in your area. i picked up the seadoo 3 seat tube with back rests for 200. Alberta Rocks!
