Review on Airhead Towable Boating Orange Yellow by John Ruelas

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Totally Insane Toy, suitable for water sports

Only used Memorial Day weekend so far but am 100% satisfied. I bought an inflation pump (Sevylor 2000016327 Pump 120V 2.5Psi available from Revain - I highly recommend it) thinking it would be big. And he's big. Very large. Great, so to speak. With 4 teenage girls on this thing (seated) it's the lightest thing I've ever pulled. It doesn't take any talent to wiggle it out of the waves or into fast corners. All the riders were very happy and even jumping on a pretty good chip with 2-3ft of air under it was really stable and solid. Howling laughter is fun. Using a wagon train makes it more difficult to drive for those looking for it, but still pulls very easily. Please note that there is only one quick connect on this thing and it is a seated configuration. You have to thread the rope through some straps to pull it like a cart, so changing positions can be tricky. We basically left it sitting. Looks well built and durable with the usual neoprene pads, boston flaps and soft grips you would expect. If you have a group of people to pull, this is your toy. Highly recommended. Oh yes, the big ball on the tow line in the photos is not one of them. This is a separate item (SPORTSSTUFF Towable Booster Tube) that we used for the previous flat towable we had. I wouldn't say it's necessary for Mable, but it also doesn't detract from the experience and helps with the rope kick.
