The kid and dad are discussing how to beat the record. Dad wants to web the armpits for more lift and hang time and wants to fine tune the speed of the boat for best launch angle. The kid wants a helmet, more padding and a mouthpiece.
I remember being on a tube in a similar situation except I got dragged off the back and my swim trunks got yanked off into the water. I had to climb back on the boat buck ass naked.
Lots of fond memories for me too.. I am pleasantly surprised that unlike usual, the CPS calling Karen brigade is not out in force in the comments! Kudos to all you fun lovers
Every kid should have a memory like this. I remember looking at my cousin in the air upside down vividly when I was 7 on almost the same tube with a similar wake
I grew up in an inner city suburb so most of my fun-time memories as a pre teen involve impacts with concrete. Asfalt was a little softer but then you usually had more speed since you were probably out on a road at that point. Also some minor shoplifting. Living in the countryside now and they hate me.
Man, an entire generation of kids were brought up being absolutely PUNISHED by their dads and uncles on these tubes! My big toe nail got ripped off once when my uncle cornered his jet boat somewhere between 50 MPH and Mach 1 while towing me on a tube! I cried, he laughed, and I was tougher afterwards! Good old fashioned character building stuff here!
We call waves lined up in a row outside of the wake a “graveyard.” The challenge is to give a good ride with causing injury. Every dad has experienced the following scenario. Kids say, “don’t throw us off.” No problem. After about 5 minutes the kids act bored and pretend to be sleeping on the tube. Then mom says “get ‘em!” Then the driver speeds up, hits waves, tosses the kids off, kids cry and say “why did you do that?”…… then they ask for another ride.
Man, the best of times; trying to hold on for dear life, shifting weight with your friends around the tube so you don't flip while your dad is looking for every possible wave to destroy you with. I've got home videos I need to go watch.
Oh yeah, these things build character. My dad used to think it was hilarious to sling my brother and I through the weeds along the sides of, really, any Florida river or stream. Bonus points if we fell off in said weeds. He'd swing back around while we were fighting for our lives and shout "WATCH OUT FOR THAT SNAKE!" or "WATCH OUT FOR THAT GATOR!". Lol, good times.
@@BigChungusthe3rd yup. They were more scared of us though. I only worried about snakes. Can't tell you how many times we swam in random creeks and streams, only to see a gator slip out a little bit later.
Oh man I miss doing things like this. My dad used to tow us into this little cove on the local lake and start doing circles in the cove and the waves would start bouncing back off the shore and meeting back in the middle and they'd get MASSIVE. I've been thrown in the air like this more times then I can count and it was fun as hell. We didn't have a visit inner tube like that, we just had those little circular ones that could carry 2 people each hanging off a side.
I had an experience like this as a kid. With our first tube, my brother and I hit a wave, and everyone said we were launched about 10 ft in the air. All I remember is being on the tube one second, in the air another, then a hard landing after at. XD
Yea basically drive in circles, you create some overlapping waves that can be huge then you swing the tubes overtop. Great fun, we spent hours and hours as kids doing that.
Called a double up wakeboarded for years. Run a straight line swing out and turn and drive straight back into the wake you just made. The wake from the straight line and the wake that you are making when they meet will make the wakes merge. Look up how to make a double up wake. Wakeboarding you hit the second or 3rd double up you will get huge air 3rd is hard to hit
If u do a figure eight you can build two waves that will meet in one massive pillar of water. Got drug through those by my brother a half dozen times until he finally got it just right. Cartwheeled 20 feet up through the air before rolling a good dozen times through the water
i have a several interesting tubing memories. my feet touched my head once. i was not a flexible 13 year old and i already had back issues, so that sucked. another time, my dads friend was pulling THREE tubes at once. 10 kids. 3 person flat tubes. dude was going stupidly fast, making whirlpools, and hitting VERY sharp turns. my tube flipped onto another one and i was the only one who held on. he skipped us like rocks. looking back, how did anyone think that was a good idea? 🤨
ouch. this happened to me one time except i hit something in the water and split my entire face open. when you’re going that fast, water is like concrete.
@@Shaolin91z I'm not a killjoy. I was just speaking of a real life thing that happened to me. Always an insensitive-nonpersonable PRICK in the comments section 😂
Driver is everything in these circumstances. Theres a fun way to catch big air and a super dangerous way. Hitting at super high speeds is the dangerous way.
The worst part is when you look over and realize you’re about to hit a big ass wave while going Mach one sideways. So you just kinda sit there and think to yourself “fuck, fuck, Fuck, FUCK, FUCK, FUCK!!!
We were pulling someone on a tube called the Ninja Blaster once. It was shaped like a donut without a hole in the middle. He went so high that the cars driving by on the interstate bridge all started honking their horns... 🤣😂🤣
I remember when I was at my dads friends lake house and I went tubing and it was one of those ones where you have to hold on for dear life. Anyway I got a concussion and some good memories.
I remember being super drunk on one of these while my friends went so fast that it was hovering above the water. I finally fell off at some point and it felt like hitting concrete
I remember doing this as a kid. Half of the fun (If you got knocked off) was to see how far you’d get launched. And even as an adult… im an experienced swimmer. But you always should wear a life jacket in these scenarios. You can easily get the wind knocked out of you. So you gotta have something to help you stay up
I hate that tube. Don't get me wrong the weight is all in the back and allows for a wild ride. But the couch section holds you in so well that there is no way you are falling off of that thing. I got bored after a while and let go and even then it took a bit to throw me off. My favorite ones are the small flat tubes. It's got to be just the right size where it feels stable to ride in a straight line, but as soon as you start going sideways and skipping over waves it becomes a balancing act just I stay on the tube.
I was in a 3 person tube with just me and another dude. His dad was driving like a mad man whipping us around in tight corners. We hit the wake and went monster Airborne then went inverted about 15 feet up. While we were inverted my partner gets ejected straight down into the water. Losing all that weight, I flipped right side up and landed. After we circled back to pick his son up out of the water he was beat up pretty bad. We had to take him back into shore. It was awesome!
I remember my friends dad would occasionally take us tubing with the jet ski, it was basically our version of X Games 😂😂😂 his little brother would hold on so hard that the handles ripped off and we all went flying
Man this don’t even count, it’s a damn couch…we had a regular bass boat and the most basic tube imaginable..,eventually we got one that had the rope attached to the tube and not have to hang on for dear life while trying to be aware enough to drop that rope in a second once you were wiping out otherwise it was an instant submarine full take in water max depth dive of nightmares….. Once we got an appropriate tube and learned how to mostly avoid the outboard motor due to no fancy tripod rope attachment that woulda had the rope above motor safely versus the forked ropes attached to the trailer tie downs on the transom… My dad lived for days on the lake that would have sudden white caps and giant swells from Mother Nature hating me…not the most frequent thing to occur, so his next option was encouraging passing boaters to swing back to make a very wide (safely outta our path) circle or opposing paths to give him the treacherous n playing field of large wakes from different directions coming across each other and basically creating the minefield of waterways for this then 11 year old kid….but me and my buddy got good at riding double on The one tube where one of us would literally be clinging to the last grasps on rhe outlet side of the tube while that would at rest be perpendicular to the water surface making for an amazing counter balancing function as that position would have a large portion of you skimming the surface of the water with the other person on the top side of the tube just outside of center (adjusting location as needed) and you and that side of The tube would be completely free from the water and up in the air above it as you shifted your weight to keep it in the air off the water (contact with it in these crazy turns that had that mercury tide crafts impressive at rhe time -a 150 or 200 iirc motor giving it all the gas guzzling power it could muster) would usually result in a very rapid energy transfer and attempted repositioning that would usually send us across rhe surface of rhe water like a human sized skipped rock…similar terrible thing would happen if you were not careful enough to keep enough weight on the airborne side resulting in (arguably) the less enjoyable wipe out that had you crashing into your other rider and instead of the almost enjoyable rolling skimming insanity across the top of the water, it was often another rapid onset drag movement which would cause a unpleasant too quick deceleration and plunge down deep that you hopefully wouldn’t inhale too much water and by gods grace you had your trunks tied up as tight as possible if you didn’t want to climb back into the boat with all your glory on display -and climbing into a bass boat with no ladder or any type of attached aiding device at hand while in the nude is a very unique and unforgiving maneuver that no one wants to see, not to mention the fact that if it’s a male doing the climbing sliding shimmy rolling performance into a standard equipment basic bass fishing boat…the potential dangers of not having a smoothed out angled ramp type like area designed for entering from the water…just to say you had to be cautious…and that’s not even including the fact my dad was an avid fisherman for decades and you better believe that the forgotten dropped tackle:gear:hooks were always a possibility
I remember doing this but the tube hit another wake so it was trampoline and then my balls skid across the water at like 30 mph, hurts but such a fun core memory
We used to go battle tubing as teenagers, it's a wonder no one died! One time we had a big tube like this with 3 people on it, me and my brother's friend on a small round tube. Tubes separate, one goes off to the side and the other is in the wake. We come flying around, and my brother's buddy gets knocked off. So I'm alone, they swing me out again, I said "fuck it!" and when I swung back around I JUMPED off the tube flying straight at the other one! I was trying to land on the 3 guys and flip their entire tube. Well buddy stuck his leg out and his foot hit me square in the nose! Broke the shit out of it! I was out for a few seconds but luckily my face wasn't in the water. They come around and were shocked to see my face covered in blood, but I'm laughing hysterically! It could have been much worse!
Nothing like the feeling of becoming a human pendulum before going ass end up outside of the wake and just riding the surface (which feels like an asphalt road for about 5 seconds)
Back when tubes frist came out my kid brother thought it was funny to go full throttle and turn you wood end up air born hit the water and end up with water burns. Well years later the old penn yann got old bought a new boat faster just by chance I was driven he was riding. I took him on a wip he fell off the tube hit the water skiped across the water about tore the life vest off. The water went under his skin like a blister.he said don't ever do that again I laughed and said you been doing that to me for years pay back is a bitch
Mom’s freaking out.
Dad’s laughing hysterically.
The kid understands the idea of death for the first time.
That's how tubing should be. Just next to concussions and mom very worried!
women sure love to scream in videos where things go down
I had quite the opposite experience.
It was exhilarating and I wanted to do it again *immediately!*
That sums it up to a T. Nice job.
The kid and dad are discussing how to beat the record. Dad wants to web the armpits for more lift and hang time and wants to fine tune the speed of the boat for best launch angle. The kid wants a helmet, more padding and a mouthpiece.
He looked rather victorious whilst careening through the air.
I give it an 8.6
OK he got pretty high but this weekend my dad hit my Uncle's surf wave and we went almost 15 feet in the air
Bro tubing is fun lol i just came back from the boat with my uncoe
Bro that’s about 15’ lmaoo
Teachable moment. He will be better at sticking the landing next time.
Yeah he didn't quite get that 2 1/2 with a swan dive
Lol
“EJECT! EJECT! EJECT!”
“Oh! Man over board!”
Well, that kid caught some serious air😂😂😂😂😂
Are we just not gonna talk about how bad that belly flop had to hurt
I love this journey for him. I wish him well. Thoughts and chairs
Lmaoooo!!😂😂😂 bro had enough hangtime to reevaluate that entire vacation trip🔥🥂
Props to the kid that rode it out,👍
My name is Giovanni Giorgio but everybody calls me Giorgio.
Im positive he came back on the boat and wanted to go again haha, awesome
I like how little man who didn't get jettisoned looks at the empty seat next to him 😮
Tubing is great I remember skipping across the water like a rock and in that span of time seeing my legs flop around in front of me lol
here before 1 million views.
This is why “You don’t tow from the Bimini “
That kid must be living the dream

Best 2 seconds of his life

Caleb after tubing incident: 😭 but what about Shawn?
Dad: don’t worry, he’ll swim back to our campsite by supper tonight
Lots of fond memories for me too.. I am pleasantly surprised that unlike usual, the CPS calling Karen brigade is not out in force in the comments! Kudos to all you fun lovers
The real tragedy is that the guys on the boat were listening to Despacito
Right to the chest, guaranteed that knocked the air right out of him and he was gasping lol

I got a neck injury on one of those dam things. The problem isn’t the tube, it’s the lunatic boat driver.
I one time flew up but the tube was with me and I think I standed while holding on then I was still on😮
Getting chucked like that whether in water or on mountain and not getting hurt too badly were some of the funnest times!

We used to go battle tubing as teenagers, it's a wonder no one died! One time we had a big tube like this with 3 people on it, me and my brother's friend on a small round tube.

So I'm alone, they swing me out again, I said "fuck it!" and when I swung back around I JUMPED off the tube flying straight at the other one! I was trying to land on the 3 guys and flip their entire tube. Well buddy stuck his leg out and his foot hit me square in the nose! Broke the shit out of it! I was out for a few seconds but luckily my face wasn't in the water. They come around and were shocked to see my face covered in blood, but I'm laughing hysterically! It could have been much worse!
I remember being 'shaken off' the tube at 45 mph, hairpin turns and skipping like a stone, cart wheeling over the water. Good fun!
Nothing like the feeling of becoming a human pendulum before going ass end up outside of the wake and just riding the surface (which feels like an asphalt road for about 5 seconds)
the kid still holding on is wondering where his copilot went
Back when tubes frist came out my kid brother thought it was funny to go full throttle and turn you wood end up air born hit the water and end up with water burns. Well years later the old penn yann got old bought a new boat faster just by chance I was driven he was riding. I took him on a wip he fell off the tube hit the water skiped across the water about tore the life vest off. The water went under his skin like a blister.he said don't ever do that again I laughed and said you been doing that to me for years pay back is a bitch
I was on one of the ones where you lay down and oml I scorpioned so hard 😭
The best part is it all got caught on video, so when the kid is explaining to all his friends what happened hes got proof! And everlasting memories.
