  • I’ve lived in Texas my entire life, but have never floated the rivers of the Hill Country.
    My good friend J’aime is a pro and took me along to float the Comal River In New Braunfels from Landa Falls. It’s the longest ride on the river!

    Have you ever gone tubing? If so, where?

      When I was a kid, My family and I went to some place called Aquarena Springs in San Marcos or Maybe it was New Braunfels. Not sure if it is open anymore. They had a pig that would dive into a pool and swim with Mermaids. There were also glass bottom boats and stuff. I hope I’m not making this all up and it all actually happened. Anywho, we stayed at some cabins along the Comal River called The Other Place. We also went to Schlitterbaun in New Braunfels. We did the whole family tubing thang on the Comal & Guadalupe Rivers. I remember my sister was afraid of fish that “looked at her”. LOL. I remember some of the rapids and slides were actually pretty scary.

      Yes! Aquarina Springs was a real place. It was torn down in the early 90’s. I’m glad you got to go! I never did.

    Epic beard brother! Loved your video because my wife and I just retired in New Braunfels 6 months ago, and are planning a 1st time float on the Comal in July. And yes, at 65+ I am looking forward to the tube chute! But I'm a former desert racer on motorcycles, so it should be a cakewalk for me, LOL!

    I weigh alot more than you and I haven't ever flipped out. My advise is to bring your own tube with a head rest attached. It makes it much more comfortable for your neck. The second thing is get ping pong paddles and attach cords so they can slip on your wrist. You can use them as personal paddles. It helps when you want to move to the side. I'm an older female with bad knees. I was terrified to get out at the end of the ride but people always seem to help me get out of my tube and up the steps which makes it much nicer.

    • @RobbZipp
      @RobbZipp  2 роки тому +1

      That’s all great advice! I didn’t know you could bring your own tube! Is there any place there to air them up, or do you have to do that on your own? One thing I really didn’t like about the tubes there were the lack of handles. My friend got griped out by a lifeguard for using the kiddie float with handles and a bottom.

    • @RobbZipp
