Boating Sportsstuff Grandstand: 1-2 Person Towable Tube for Enhanced Performance Review

Very fun to drive. The only drawback is that it takes up a lot of space. I have to lower the tailgate of my truck and buckle it. I'm a big guy and I have a hard time standing on his back, he just wants to slouch. I would like to see mini ski rope handles on the ends of the leashes. I also find this tube difficult to steer and hard to get out of the wake without a lot of effort. It is very stable and I would say it could easily accommodate two people if required.

We only used it one day but couldn't wean my kids! Says it's for one person, but we used it for one adult and one child (kids aged 9-16). It's stable enough to ride comfortably seated (yes I am!) but if you take over the trail from another boat and the kids are kneeling or standing it'll give them good hits! Really very versatile depending on the rider and rider! The fabric is very good and I think it's excellent quality! Can't wait for more hours of fun!

This raft is very stable up to 25-30mph depending on the weight. It will take to the air with a light baby on a raft if it shoots a slingshot or if it exceeds 25. It pulls very well and is great for pulling with a ski rope or hose rope. Getting up and pulling up the pipe takes practice and 2 friends were injured in a high speed fall as the pipe becomes very unstable from side to side when standing up. DO NOT USE A HAND PUMP. Made that mistake once and won't make it again lol. Be sure to use a…

I think I've researched too much on tow boat toys but I'm glad I bought this one. Firstly, I didn't see anyone on the lake with it. Secondly, everyone who sees us standing on it with a few people is stunned. You can almost see the kids on the other boats wishing they had one of these. You don't have to limit yourself to two people either. It has so many handrails and is SO BIG that four or five adults (lying down) can easily fit on it. And when I say it's LARGE, I mean it's as wide as my Malibu

This is the funniest thing we've ever seen on a tube. We switched from 1 to 5 drivers at the same time. There are tons of buttons, so lots of ways to drive. Getting up is easier than you think. This snorkel is rigid and football shaped nose cones prevent it from sinking. We used this behind a 200+ horsepower engine. with two screws. Difficult to get out of the wake with light riders but easy with adults. It worked best when I had over 300 pounds on the pipe. It's also more fun than the cockpit…

My husband, myself and our 14 year old daughter LOVE this tube! You should see the looks we get on the lake when people see us tubing alongside them. it's too funny We've even come up with a few different side poses (sitting back-to-back, with your legs hanging) and inverted poses (you're lying with your back against the big red balls) that are insanely fun and/or just relaxing. The thing is so versatile. And a workout! Omg this is insanely good standing up. Your legs get a lot of work. The…

If we only had one water toy, this would be it. We have three teenagers and many nieces and nephews who have used it and love it everywhere. We've tried wakeboards, kneeboards, single cams, jet skis, and water discs, and none have been as fun as this cam. We use the second one because the original finally gave up after 4 seasons (I estimate we rode it over 2000 miles before the air deflectors started to come loose - the outer cover was still very serviceable). With the ability to move, sit…

To summarize the following review in two sentences: The maximum driving position means incredible fun. You will regret this purchase only heavily. Bought two towable carts for summer vacation at the lake 2013: SPORTSSTUFF 53-1860 TRANDSTAND 2 Towable and SPORTSSTUFF 53-1275 Towable Mixmaster 2 Towable Action Tube. We ended up using the grandstand three times more than the Mixmaster. Towed trailers arrived on the weekend of July 4th (main delivery). Lazing by a lake means a lot of traffic…
