Todays mail made me feel like that kid. I received Overtons 2017 season catalog and there are NINE pages of tubes!! Now my problem is deciding which one to get first!

I got mine today too,have not had a chance to look at it yet. I will say always coordinate the tube to your boat colors-.
But who you kidding anyway Pete,I'm sure as a pro tuber the tube companies pounding on your door for endorsements anyway and most likely have your choice of the tubes you helped to develop

What is a ballpark limit on the rear pin for pulling skiers and tubes? Two screamer tubes with two 180 lb loads?

How much can you pull on the center post?

I still have the covers over my aft lifting rings. Are those the same points they use for pulling parasailers?
