So you want to fly? So you want to fly a kite tube?
Ski tubing is a great watersport. It is easy and just about anyone can enjoy it but just like any other sports there is always the extreme and when I say extreme ski tubing, I mean High flying kite tubes. The name says it all : Ski tubes that fly kinda like a kite. Kite tubing can be very dangerous and should be done by professionals after all the tube does fly quite high while you are being towed at a high rate of speed. I think you can figure out what the possibilities of a crash would be but now that you have been warned let’s look at these kite tubes.
The most popular flying ski tube today is The Manta Ray Flying Ski tube by sevylor and from what I have seen it is one hell of a wild ride! This kite tube gets major air and stays there. This tube is shaped like a giant manta ray and when it gets air underneath it it glides like a bird. Prices on this tube run between $300 and $500.
So you want to see this crazy flying kite tube in action? Just check out these videos below and you will see what I meant by saying one hell of a wild ride!.
Are you looking for a great way to keep your ski tube or boat towable in your boat and out of the way?
Check out the tube keeper! This great little device will do just that. Keep your ski tube tied down and out of the way while you are under way! Did you just ask yourself, How does this tube keeper work? Well I am going to tell you! It’s pretty simple but most great tools or inventions are fairly simple. Someone once said to me don’t you know about the K.I.S.S. theory? I thought to myself, nope never heard of it. They replied K.I.S.S. is an anagram for Keep It Simple Stupid! So let’s check out the tube keeper. It should be in every tube owners inventory, just like and electric pump or a super duty tow rope.
The tube keeper has handy two inch wide straps that will attach your ski tube or boat towable to your boat’s stern and tighten it down for a secure hold. One end of the straps attach around the ski tube or boat towable’s handles and the other end can attach to your boat with the 3.5 inch suction cups or the stretch cords which can be hooked into a cleat or a rail. This can be a great way to keep your ski tube in place and save some space at the same time. At the time of this writing the tube keeper is only $9.00, that’s another reason why every tube owner should have one.
Are you thinking about getting a new ski tube or boat towable but don’t want to spend a lot of cash?
Ski tubing is fun and it doesn’t cost a lot to get started. There are quite a few boat tubes on the market that are less than $50, and if you get a tow rope and tow harness you could get all three for less than $100, you just need to know where to look and guess what, I am going to show you! Believe me, I know having a boat can be expensive enough but I will show you some great ski tube deals that won’t break the bank.
First up is the Airhead Strike Ski Tube. At the time of the writing this tube was $38.99. Now that’s cheap for a boat tube.
