So Pete,
I've got several contacts going down there for the Ski Race. I'm sure we could arrange a tube pull behind a big boy boat. Just let me know. BKH |

It certainly is comforting to see how Pete has embraced this Dynamic tubing sport. I recall the angry posts on this subject, years ago, Ahhh, have to go, seems I have something in my eyes.....

If I could find that famous picture we could have a 'side by side' comparison...but I cant find it. Maybe Larry can. I think it was in a River Run thread...when me you and Bill were on the boat together. But come to think of it....might be to hard on all our eyes.... john |

The race may even call for a fresh impeller in the Tique!

With those legs and an outfit like that with the socks pulled up, all he needs is sandals on & he’ll fit perfect in a mobile home park with pink flamingos on the Florida coast.

And to think I was given a hard time with my white legs....
I think a smaller more aerodynamic tube combined with a foil would be the way to go until rules are made to ban them. Got to think outside the box like Smokey Yunick |

Larry, I'm working on the speed tubing. So far I have 4 prototype tubes of different shapes. They are reinforced so I can fill them with over 75PSI. The high pressure is needed to maintain their shape at the high speeds.  I got bored with the kite tubing. Needed more speed!

After Pete shows them how the pro’s do it, next years rules will be amateur only

Can you imagine? Take those two ski racing vids over on the Maherajah thread and drop in two tubes instead of 2 skiers. What a riot!
