  • Tips to Survive on the Big Mable
Style: Big Mable
I purchased this tube to replace a lay-down style tube that warped (bloated) in the middle. There was only 1 review when I bought this, but I took a chance and it was worth the risk and the price - so far :). Here is what I've learned/picked-up from using Mable. Survival Tip 1: This thing can get some major air (5ft!) when the water is very choppy from boat/pwc traffic (on the 4th of July weekend for example). This is really cool, until the rider comes down. So, a word of advice - from experience - if you get major air ***LET GO***! Yes, this may seem to go against your initial instincts to hold on for dear life. But, here is something to consider - you will have two outcomes if you hold on: A) you will get ejected after the impact OR B) you will get a good amount of whiplash. Our riders had some not-so-fun-and-painful landings/ejections when they held on, but were fine if they let go mid-air. If you are not going to provide a flat ride, and are looking to catch a good amount of air, your may want to inform your rider(s) of this. Survival Tip 2: Mable isn't a one-trick towable. Mable can fly and tip and flip! While Mable may seem bottom-heavy (and thus non-flippable), if you whip the tube out wide enough and fast enough (i.g. boat speed around 20MPH) you can lose your rider(s). I don't think we had any injuries from tipping or flipping, besides riders having the occasional collision while on the tube. Survival Tip 3: With adult riders and with Mable in the 'chariot' (kneeling) position, our boat wasn't strong enough to get Mable started unless the riders leaned back. So, tip 3 is to LEAN BACK when in the chariot position to get started. Afterwards, the rider can get comfortable without trouble. As a side note, when we had one rider and had speeds between 10MPH and 15MPH, Mable nosedived in the 'lounge' position. She would also sometimes drag or tip over without a rider, usually when the boat slowed down from lower speeds that were between 10MPH and 15MPH. General Tidbits: -Switching the position of Mable is really easy. -She also stays inflated very well - we didn't have to re-inflate after the initial inflation. -The handles and padded areas can rub on the rider(s) skin. If you want maximum protection for your skin, wear long pants when kneeling. Longer bottoms may also be a good idea for sitting too since regular swimsuits may ride-up. Gloves may be a good idea for extended rides, or you'll risk blisters. --- Overall, the Big Mable is an awesome tube. It handles all sorts of riders, it has held up well (over three months with at least 2 weeks of heavy use/abuse), and it is very very fun. It is easy to switch positions. --- Notes: Used only on fresh-water lake. ... show more

  • Buy the Orb Too!!!
Style: Big Mable
Ok, here's what you need to know. If you buy this tube, buy the Airhead Orb too!! We didn't, and instead just bought an Airhead rope. It was a disaster. The rope dragged in the water and started sinking the tube and the kids went under in choppy water within a few minutes. It was horrible and I literally had nightmares about watching them sink for the next 4 nights! We were thinking of returning the tube but instead purchased the Airhead Orb. Good News!! This fixed the drag problems 100%!! The tube doesn't sink. The kids stay securely on the tube and it skims the water nicely. The Orb also comes with all the rope you need, so DONT buy a rope, just buy the Orb, otherwise don't bother with this tube. Now that we have the Orb the kids tube on this thing for hours and have a blast. It's made for 2 people, however my 11 year daughter and her two friends all rode on this tube and it worked perfectly. No one fell out and they had fun! SO, to sun it up, 5 stars if you buy the Orb too, 1 star if you don't. ... show more

This is the most fun thing we’ve purchased for the boat. It’s a big size and fits 2 people at a time perfect. Very hard to flip too (which I love)

  • Best purchase of the summer.
Style: Big Mable
We have used a different brand of towable lake tow for years. Ours finally gave up this summer. We bought the Big Mable on recommendation of a friend in a nearby lake. Adults and kids alike loved the Big Mable. Riding it is both comfortable, feels stable, and is fun for everyone. Plus I can manage moving it at 65yo by myself! Our old one took two people to lug. ... show more

  • Big Mable is the ticket
Style: Big Mable
My grandkids loved riding this float behind our pontoon. It accommodates two children or an adult and child. The raft can be towed in either direction. It has handles for the riders. The bladder (float) has a heavy cover which has the handles and tow straps attached. Nice design! Easy to maintain. It's sturdy. I like the loop though attachments for the tow rope. Be aware it takes lots of air. I used a shop compressor and it took about 10 minutes. Plan much more time if you use a small portable compressor. I have also used an electric air matress pump which does pretty well. Plan for a pump when you initially blow it up. A little pricey but you get what you pay for. I recommend this item. ... show more

  • Great tube
Style: Big Mable
This was a huge pain in the butt to blow up. It took 3 of us over an hour to get this inflated. The valves failed to meet up with the hole which was super challenging. Once it was inflated and used it all lined up great and now will be easy to fill. It was just the initial fill that was a struggle (my arm had a huge bruise from it). It super fun out on the water and worked wonderfully. ... show more

  • Heavy duty!
Style: Big Mable
Very heavy duty with multiple attaching points. This is a good, sturdy product. Strong tough attaching points and overall tough fabric. The two-person float was plenty big enough for my son and his two daughters. It tows well from either front or back.
