This 3 person Poparazzi is our 3rd tube, and is fine in it's own right but falls short of ultimate glory. we ran a 3 person disk the first season, then got a big mabel the next season and this tube in our 4th season. We tube on medium small lakes in Indiana with very little in the way of waves, pulled with regular rope and the bungee rope behind our 19' chaparral with a 4.3 V6 I/O. We can run full sized adults or kids on this tube, with all 3 down on their belllies or with 2 down and 1 standing. it will submarine if you don't have everyone leaning back and stretched to the back at launch. it goes up on plane easily, but it is very hard to get it to leave the wake without serious effort. the curved bottom actually works against it, as it will ride up the wake and then go back, where as the flat bottom on the other tubes we pull will glide right over the wake and slide out beside the boat. It's fun to stand on this tube, which is pretty unique. but the driver must go dead straight, the slightest effort to turn will toss the standing rider and all the passengers go with them. I did find the fill valves to be extraordinarily stiff, and I have a very difficult time pushing in the valves after filling it up. They should loosen up with use, but it was a hazard upon its first voyage when I left them out and it started to deflate in use! No leaks or tears, and riding surface is soft and comfortable. I find myself inflating it on the dock and taking it out on the lake, where most of the other tubes i can roll up and carry around on the boat and inflate midway through the trip when needed and deflate and stow when not. It's fun, and i'm glad we have it for variety and novelty; but the big mabel does all the same things, is easier to whip outside the wake, and is more versatile (you can ride sitting down, chariot style, and standing chariot style). The disk and the poparazzi also require a good deal of strength and stamina to hold onto at speed, whereas sitting on a big mabel/captain's chair/inflatable couch tube requires much less core strength to just sit and hold on. at slow speeds this can submarine easily, so we keep it under 4 mph or above 12. it's comfortable as a lounger and fun as a swim platform when at anchor. The numerous handles make it easy to reboard after falling off. Overall i'd rate this an 8 or 9 out of 10.

This is our second one as we wore out the first after 8 years and many hours of use. Built very well, the kids loved it so much they said we had to order another. 3 people easily fit on it and it pulls great. I would highly recommend this to anyone. We have a large collection of towables and this is a go to almost every time out.

Objectifs de mon achat:Utilisation variée (à plusieurs, à genoux, debout).Résultat:Excellente bouée. Les sensations sont intéressantes et multiples.La bouée est plus « sécurisante » aussi pour des enfants peu âgés. Pour les ados, elle est également géniale. Il faut veiller à ce qu’elle soit bien gonflée pour une utilisation optimale.Seul point négatif à ne pas ignorer: son encombrement. Personnellement, je suis obligée de l’attacher à mon semi rigide (ou alors il faut la gonfler sur la plage mais cela prend du temps).Pour info: j’ai un bateau semi rigide de 4,5 m équipé d’un Yamaha 80 cv. Cela fonctionne très bien.

Might get two summers out of it though. It gets handled roughly and used a lot. Great for the little kids and the big ones too

Great tube. Thing is huge, errr, HUGE and that's really the only con I can think of.We've had 6 kids on this tube at once (3rd grade and below (250 lbs, tops)) with no issues. Also have had 3 adults (550+ lbs) with the same results.Kids tend to want to try to pull a starfox and do a barrel roll with this thing (which won't happen), so it can get frustrating if your lake is busy due to constantly having to flip this monstrosity back over and collect kids scattered all across the lake.We blow it up with an old 12v inflator and it does take a bit of time, but the kids are usually swimming while it's inflating so it's not that big of a deal.Pros:-Tons of COMFORTABLE handles- Somewhat steerable (you can go in and out of the wake)-Tons of riding options, kids have never complained of it being boring-Holding up well (we pull it from the boat and hang it with the bladders removed when not in use)-Can be used by adults for make shift shade if needed!Cons:-Big-Heavy-Can be a bit much on the back of a boat with a decent wind blowing... ALWAYS attach your rope before inflating!

As far as fun, this is a hit with everyone 4-60+. A full 5 stars on design. After 2 months (under 20 hours of use) there is now an odd split in the front middle of the bladder (tube that inflates). It split (small) vertical to the seam, very odd. Outer fabric is in great shape which leads me to think there is a manufacturing flaw. I have been very cautious to properly use, store, and inflate this expensive towable. I will be contacting them for a product warranty but not without losing out on the last weeks of summer.Update: as recommended, I filled out the warranty in August shortly after I got a response that the warranty would be honored and a replacement 'bladder' would be sent. It arrived in February. Hopefully they were searching for a new manufacturer.Update: 3rd season, once again a split, a little under an inch in the bladder (different than last time but still a manufacture thing) I was able to patch it with tube patch stuff so hopefully it will hold. The outer part is holding up very well, not like new but close. Very modest fraying and color fade. All the handles and such are in great condition and considering the use, that is very impressive.Pros- Everyone LOVES it. Fun going fast or slow. So many ride options that suite very young or cautious to extreme. Hard to roll, especially with one rider but we can if we really try.Cons- If I have to put one, it is really big and need two persons to carry.

This has to be the best tube on the market. I've only had it about a week, and we've used it on three consecutive days, all I can say is, awesome! My girls LOVE IT! It is a real head turner too, everyone on the water way is smiling, waving, and pointing at the girls as they ride by. Easily accommodates four children, with numerous handles to hold, the girls were quickly arranging themselves in formations as they rode down the waterway. It is nice that everyone can ride at the same time and not have to take turns.Seems to be very sturdy, I will update over time as to how well it holds up. I will add that I'm pretty particular about taking care of things so, after its use, it is deflated, washed, hung to dry, then folded and put away. I'm using a high CFM 12vdc pump to inflate and deflate the tube. Has two valves that seem to work well. Also we are using the tow cable with the bungee inside.I'm pulling behind a pontoon with a 50hp engine and I wouldn't recommend it for anyone with a slower set up, really wish mine was faster. This weekend we're going out with some friends who have a 115hp bayliner so I'm sure it will get put through the paces.I highly recommend this tube. So far I only have good things to say about this tube.
