Hayneedle – Airhead Viper 2 Person Ski Water Tube Review + Giveaway

If you read my blog last summer, you know that we love going out on our boat. We were in need of a new ski tube, and I knew Hayneedle was just the place to look. They have over 200 specialty stores that have whatever you need at great prices. Just as I knew they would, they had the perfect tube for us – the Airhead Viper 2 Ski Tube.

  • Designed for up to 2 riders side by side
  • 30-gauge PVC bladder, double-stitched nylon covering
  • Inflated product dimensions: 67L X 69W inches
  • Deflated product dimensions: 70L x 73W inches
  • Tow point in tube front
  • Underside of tube shaped like a boat hull for a stable ride
  • Includes ski tube only
  • You won’t be ready for the water without a tow rope and pump!

We absolutely love riding on the tube and I had many “testers” ready to help me out. We blew it up with the air compressor at home and then we already had a rope.

We’ve had a few different types of tubes, and I really wanted one where you could sit up and have something to rest your back on. Its more fun to be up and see what is going on versus being on your stomach and continuously splashed in the face with water.

Another plus of being able to sit up is that Evan likes to ride on it. We can go really slow and with him being down in a seat, I have no fear of him sliding off. LOL, he was so bored waiting for the boat to go.

Even though I feel it is safer for the kids, you can also go really fast and sling it like any other tube! Our favorite thing to do with my siblings is try and sling them out!

The quality is great and it has taken some serious beatings. We look forward to many summers full of tubing fun! You can use this tube on the lake, river, beach, or even a large pool!
