Switchback Towable 1-4 Rider Tube for Boating and Water Sports, Double-Stitched Full Nylon Cover and Patented Speed Safety Valve for Easy Inflating and Deflating

I was just looking at these again for my brother who's buying a pontoon. Here's what I was just telling him: The switchback is awesome for 3 or 4 kids. They switch between chariot in the back and sit down in the front. My 13 year old son will bring a friend and my 15 year old daughter will, too. So, the girls will go in the front for a while while the boys ride chariot style in the back and then it's a switch and vice versa. The bad news is this tube isn't good for just 2 people. Like other reviewers noted and it's true- it sinks and plows under with just 2 people on the front sitting. In my mind the tube deserves 5 stars because it really is designed for more than 2 people. The quality is awesome, by the way. The stitching is HEAVY duty. We have 3 different style tubes. This is the only one that doesn't lose air over time. We've had this tube for 2 year and had it out on the water for countless hours, so I feel this review is fair

This is the best tube we have ever owned. The design makes it easy for everyone to hold on with multiple handle options for all passengers. It has yet to tip over so if you are looking for the thrill of falling off, this isn't the tube for you. It takes waves so well we can go feet off the water without it tipping and still continue with the ride. The kids love it and it makes me feel more comfortable when they are out on the water. The back part is a little small so your feet at times may hang in the water. My 11 year old prefers the back saying it's even more fun than the front though. The design of the tube allows it to easily be secured on our particular boat - I feel like it takes up less room. Overall a 5 star rating and worth every penny!

This tube is great for pulling behind any boat or jet ski. It has plenty of room to fit up to 4 adults easily. Like most tubes, just make sure you get a long enough tow rope to be far enough out of the white wash water from the boat motor, otherwise the tuber will get splashed in the face a lot. The tube is also large enough to just lay on in the water. The front rope tie hook is also a nice feature. The tube takes a good bit of air to fill up so you almost need a decent air compressor to fill it. It would be very time consuming to fill with a hand or foot pump.

This is a great tube for children! Pulled behind a wakeboard boat it is very hard to sling them around if they are riding in the front (which is good for younger kids). But it’s a whole new ball game if someone is on the back. This thing is huge. My kids love it. Giving 4 stars due to a leak somewhere after first use. I’m sure it will be a pain to take the inner tube out, repair and stuff back in.

We've had this out twice with the kids and it was great. Seems very sturdy and well constructed. We put 2 kids on front and their parents on back. Stable enough that little ones ages 4-9 could ride safely without being afraid. Reminds me of a big couch. Comfy too. I curled up on it and took a nap one day while waiting for the family to arrive.

We used this the first time last weekend and everyone had a blast on it. It can be a little tricky on the back to hang on since it’s a little small back there but once we put more air in it, it was a little easier. Everyone had a blast on it. Worth the buy and was cheaper here than everywhere online and in the marinas.

My parents bought this tube for their house, and it is the only tube that all 3 of my kiddos felt comfortable riding without having a fear of losing their lives when doing circles behind the boat or jet ski. So, had to splurge and get one for our house. The kids love it! Beware though....it is very heavy and sometimes the tube within the shell shifts, which makes it difficult to inflate. Due to the weight, we just keep it in our boat and use a small electric pump to inflate it when the kids want to tube. Also.....be prepared to go through a lot of gas, as the tubing will go on for hours!

We purchased this hoping it would work well for our 2 kids and a friend each. The tube is made well, sturdy, and lots of fun! BUT the two options for riders on the back really doesn’t work very well. Why…? 1) They have to stay on their knees in a ‘standing’ position, they cannot ‘sit’ on their knees. This makes them uncomfortable and is difficult to stay on. 2) Their hands and arms get tired and sore from holding their full body weight off the back with no type of support. 3) They argue about who has to ride in the back vs. front and typically just say forget it and go 2 at a time.

would buy again

Exelente.. producto.. valio la pena su costo

Great tube and good for 4 teenagers. Of course, you need a boat that can pull that much weight. Easy to get back on when you get tossed off from the wake.

Easy to pull and gives option of 2 riders, 3 riders and 4 riders.

Quality tube, had a fun summer on it in 2018. No physical problems with it, the only disappointing thing is the rear riders must be kneeling or standing (me 😏) facing forward. If you’re sitting facing backwards you slide right off very quickly. I like that the tube is narrower than most. Action is really good with 4 riders, not as wild with two. Smaller kids would like the front position. We flatten the divider so my two boys can lay down on their stomachs. Good to have variety. 😄
