It's season 3 for this tube and it's been working great. I raised my rating to 5 stars as we've had no problems once we figured out how to position to avoid submarining and we've had a ton of fun. I would buy this tube again.
UPDATE 6 August, 2012:
Have used this tube several more days for multiple hours each time. All my previous comments still apply. We're having a blast with this tube.
Original Review:
I bought this tube last week and used it last weekend. So, disclaimer... I've only used it a couple of days on a lake.
I would give this tube 5 stars if it didn't submarine a few times.
Yes, I found that this tube would occasionally submarine if the people on it were not positioned well. But, with just a few such incidents, we used this tube for hours over two days and had great success. We had kids as small as 75 lbs up to 150 lbs. and it worked well 95% of our runs.
I find the exterior skin to be a good quality, thick nylon, and the inner bladder appears to be a good quality, thick, rubberized plastic.
Sizing is a lot like rafts. That is, they say it holds 3 persons, but that's true only if they're small or medium sized. For me, three kids worked as did two larger kids (teenagers roughly equivalent to adults). You'd have a tough time using this tube with three adults. If you want to haul a large number of and/or larger people, look at bigger tubes. This one is, from what I've seen, a medium-sized tube.
Side note: Amazon suggested various tow ropes to purchase with my tube. I did buy the Kwik Tek Airhead 4 Rider Tube Rope ( Kwik Tek Airhead 4 Rider Tube Rope ). Amazon also suggested I buy some additional connection components. I did not need these. My boat has a quick connect hook and this tube has a quick connect. The rope is looped at both ends and connected to the boat and tube directly. No need for additional connecting components.
Conclusion: After one use I am pleased. I would recommend this tube to others. I would buy it again. I will be using this tube several times more this summer, so if you see no update to this review, then I'm still happy and my conclusions are still valid.
The tip about submarining on take-off was very helpful. Our riders have also suggested spreading out your legs helps to keep it more stable around turns when the water is choppy.
Only annoyance is that the inflation valve on the inner tube doesn't line up with the hole on the outer covering once it is inflated.
Other items we paired with this -
Tow rope: Kwik Tek Airhead 4 Rider Tube Rope
Air Pump: Kwik Tek Airhead Hi Pressure Air Pump with Press Release (120-Volt)
Rope has worked well, but started to fray a little. Air pump is great and helpful for deflating the tube so it stores folded up.
Excellent performance with 1, 2, or 3 riders. Just bouncy enough to make it fun/challenging, not too big.
Good strength of materials
Great design features (handles, knuckle protection, "wings" to keep outside riders legs from sliding off the sides, quick tie rope connection on front)
The included boston valve is a nice feature
The colors match our boat. :)
Great value for the money
CONS:
You WILL get the skin rubbed off your elbows. EVERY rider, from a 13-yr-old to adults has had the same problem...coming away with significant rug burns on their elbows. In fairness we are aggressive with the boat when we tow, but that should be expected and it takes away from the enjoyment when everyone is tending to their wounds at the end of the day. THIS is the reason I took off one star.
The inflation valve can rotate away from the opening in the denier cover, making it a chore to fill the tube with air. I wish they were able to set it up so the inner bladder couldnt rotate around in the cover quite as much. A minor complaint overall.
It will submarine if riders put their weight too far forward. Not a big deal...the tube is good at self-correcting riders. After a couple submarine starts, people learn. :)
