It’s not yet lake weather where we live, so it will be a couple of months before we are able to get this this in the water. It promises go deliver a lot of fun, though. The material is nice and stout, the valves are good, and all the seams are tight. We’ve had this design of tube before, and in addition to thrashing people around behind a ski boat, the it’s great for slow-tows behind the pontoon boat, for sunbathing, and for the grandkids just to leap around on off our beach. I find it kind of amusing that they chose to print what is apparently a company general slogan, “Tough Tools Half Price,” on the side of a recreational lake towable. It will be fun to tell my friends on the lake that I have no idea what it's supposed to mean.
