Before I spend the coin, I've seen these on the river, wondering what your kids take is on them?

I just bought the (4) seat version, what a blast the kids are having with it. If you were at emerald cove this weekend, you might have seen it in action.
Check out this guys auction on Ebay, best price I found. Good Luck.

Thanks, I appreciate the take.
I like the stand out color. Contrasts nicely on the water.

Orangepicker bought the great big mable last year and that thing is sweet! Alot of fun,but its not something you can haul around all day on the boat...takes up a bit of room.He tows it with his JC Tritoon no problem.

We have had our Kite Tube out a couple of times now. What a blast. Better make sure you get a real good pump to pump it up though. The harder the tube the easier it flies. Pretty cool. Anyone that wants to try it out, I will be a Roosevelt Lake, AZ on Saturday.

Looks comfy enough to put up the inlaws on out on the back patio too!

I've used this one before.
No real good handles though.

Hard landing one from 40ft but they still look cool.

WTH? The camera guy should be pushed out of the boat for not getting that fall. I want to see the landing. My wife fell off of it the first time out. The next day when she woke up she said her head was spinning. Then she puked in the bathroom. She thinks she got a concusion from falling. My buddy went out with us two weeks ago and fell off. He is still complaining about his leg hurting. Neither of them fell from more than 4 feet above the water at about 20-25mph. Be careful with the Kite Tube. It is really a lot of fun though.
