Trans American Swim and Snow Adventure Tube (45" X-Large)

These are perfect. Sturdy, easy to inflate, great size for all types of people. We use them every summer for our annual family gatherings. The kids use them all summer. I've had these for three years, and they really haven't had any issues whatsoever. I expect to get another 5 to 6 years use out of them. Well worth the $$.

Yes it's a little pricey, but that smooth covered short valve is very nice. They're extremely durable compared with the cheap vinyl tubes, and give a much better experience than tractor tubes with those huge metal valves sticking out. I got the 45" tubes, and attached plastic snow discs as bottoms to them so that underwater rocks in the NC mountain streams don't bruise our posteriors. I highly recommend doing this. Just drill six holes around a 25" plastic snow sled disc, fill the tube up to 40", then attach the disc to the bottom of the tube using nylon rope through the holes you drilled. Then fill the tube the rest of the way up to 45" and that will tighten and secure the ropes for a secure fit. Others using those cheap vinyl tubes with mesh bottoms will be jealous of you.

We used to use old tractor tire tubes, these are a little smaller but good for one Adult maybe two small kids. They have a great stem cover to prevent those nasty scratches you could get from an uncovered stem. Be a kid again!!!

I thought this tube would be a little fatter. It's kind of skinny. I hope that makes sense. The hole in the center is large, but the tube is thin. It's heavy construction and survived the river (unlike my sister's cheaper tube) and the cover over the valve stem is awesome! This served it's purpose, but I wish it was fatter with a smaller hole in the middle.

What can i say itis an inner tube i am going to stack 4 of them and center them in my 18 foot round pool and install the cover over them. The typical pool pool pillows crap out just when the snow arrives

Comfortable

I bought as a float for myself to allow me to float around the boat while anchored. It works absolutely great its sturdy enough for me to load myself on it at 230 pounds to sitting position in the ring numerous times without submerging or tearing while adrift. Afterwards it sat inflated in the back of my truck in the hot sun only to do it again 2 weeks later without issue. Absolutely great product. Use an air compressor. No need to over inflate. Just barely firm it up.

My dog bit this tube like it was her favorite toy and it survived. Worth every penny
