RAVE Sports Frantic Boat Towable Tube

I have had total of 8 of these tubes over the years. The mass frantic tube slow friction bottom improves the tubers ride by allowing tube to go back and forth across wakes easier than competitors tubes. I pull up to 4 at a time with 2 or 3 people per tube using ski boat -riders jump from one tube to another while going back and forth across wake. As long as tubes are allowed to dry and stay out of UV, they last about 5 years of regular use. The top covers are course which can cause rug burns on elbows. We use tube socks with toes removed for elbow protection for those who need it.

UPDATE: had it for 3 years now, never had to replace it! However, we are thinking about replacing it here soon bc of the handles fraying, but best tube we have ever own!I am not sure why there is bad reviews on here.. We are a bunch of 20 year olds going crazy on this thing. IT NEVER TORE. This thing was used for 6-8 hours every weekend this summer. It even survived at the lake of the ozarks lol. We were very hesitant to purchase this due to the reviews but we haven't had issues at all. Ropes on the other hand, did not last too long... Taking care of the tube is just as important. We always lay it out after to dry so it does not get moldy or break. We also lost it on our way to the lake, it flew out and landed in a wheat field haha, and my dog got to enjoy it as well! We are going to buy another one next year so we can have two to pull. Highly recommend this to families and/or any boaters!

Bought this tube to replace a slightly larger, 3-rider tube that developed a tear.The tapered feature does make it easy to board this tube from the water. It has a tendency to submarine at slow speeds, so the riders have to keep their weight back until it gets on plane.Three full size folks can't ride this very readily. Just not enough room, and the wipe outs will happen quickly. Three small people could probably ride it.With two people, this is an excellent towable. Slingshots very well. Doesn't bounce excessively. Everyone who rode it this summer had a great time. Seems to be holding up well afer one season of moderate use. Overall, great value for the money spent.

The skim-fast bottom of this tube is like glue on the water! It doesn’t want to slide across the water. I tried riding by myself then with two people, but it wouldn’t slide at all. The zipper is terrible too. I doesn’t stay zipped. Overall, the tube is ok. I’m returning it and getting a refund. There are better tubes out there.

We have used this for a couple of years, easy to tow and we have had up to 3 kids on at a time. These seems to be enough room, and this is durable. good purchase.

After using this just once, my kids and I could tell that it skimmed a lot better than our old one. That translates into less stress on the tube, the rope, and the boat, and makes for a more exciting ride. I would expect it to last a little longer also. It is 56" deflated, as I think most tubes are measured, I assume for marketing purposes, to make you think it is bigger than it actually is when it is inflated. Anyway, we have just finished using it for an entire day, with two teenage kids at a time, and are very happy with it. I would probably buy another one when this one breaks

It's a little smaller than I thought but it does what it needs to do. We had a lot of fun with it last year.

We purchased our tube in March, but did not host our grandchildren till this week (July) for boating, so it was the first use of this product. Both my husband and I took turns going on the tube with our 7 year old grandson. All of us were continually pelted with water in the face as the connection to the tube sits so low on the tube that the rope is in the water.Of course this far out from purchase, there is no return. I will try to contact Amazon.com to see if they can help me since it is faulty.I reached out to RAVE Sports for possible solutions and they had none. I can only guess that they changed the way they made this tube from earlier to now if you had a good experience with it.Otherwise the tube was stable in the water and would have been fun accept for the face full of water the whole time.Just wanted to give a WARNING to others, this is a faulty product and don't purchase!

What a fun tube - for kids and adults! Skims over the water with turns, handle grips are comfortable.great time!

La verdad esta muy padre, muy buen tamaño, los materiales se ven muy bien y resistentes.Y el precio también muy buenolo recomiendo.

We love that it takes 2 adults easily, and it’s a comfortable ride for 2.

Kids love it. It does scratch the arms. Good for three kids or two adults.

Good solid product.
