Gonna get my daughter a towable tube for Christmas. I want her to be able to ride alone, or take friends so I'm thinking a three person tube should do it.
What's all y'alls input as far as which towable to go with?
Thanks in advance

LOL!!! Not funny, but I'm not allowed to threaten you. :skull: LOL
They say these are the best for kids:

But ten is getting up there, and I'm sure one of these would work:

That's simular to what I have and use most. I've had three small kids on it....briefly....and they will require years of counseling before they will get on it again....but it was safe .... REALLY!!!! :D
RTJas :D

if you use them, let them know you heard about them from the LBBA

I'd get a huge, round deck tube, as per RTJas. She can fly it, when she gets another year or two older.
... or you can fly it, when you're not pleased with her behavior.
Flying tubes rock. :cool:
Even if you don't want a flyer, I'd still get a round deck tube. Just my opinion.

That would be so fun to hook onto people's boats when they're docked, then follow them, jumping their wake, with them screaming at you to fock off the whole time.

I would highly recommend one of these. They can be rigged not to fly for the faint of heart or get creative in the air. My kids love it. Overtons.com

Unless it's a Christmas present, you should wait until the LA Show. The prices are a little bit cheaper so you could save a few bucks.

Pix, which one did you order. I used skitube.com (http://www.skitube.com/index.asp) and ordered the slash. Free shipping works for me and will be here next week in time for Christmas.
I think I may go with what Brown said and also get a round deck as well.
Thanks for all the leads everyone

CP, we went direct to this company. (http://www.sportsstuff.com/)
We lost the tube after one season and they replaced it at NO CHARGE. Haen't had a problem since.
