Tow behind snow tube

[ehart814]

Did a quick search and didn't see anything.

I'm looking for some kind of large inflatable tube to tow a few kids around in the fields. Prefer to find something at a local store. Anyone found anything that works super great and isn't $100??

i got a 2 seat watersports tow tube with the tow rope off c/l for $60. works good on snow as long as you ease into the throttle.doubtful you can find a new one in store that will withstand for under $100.

When we were kids we just grabbed an old tractor tube and baler twine and pulled it behind quads. Todays kids are a bit more fragile so I figured I'd get something a little better. LOL. I always wanted to try an old car hood from the junk yard...

I'm sure that would work! Hook it to the latch and u can even put some makeshift handles on it 😂😂😂

I don't have any experience with snow, but in my younger/dumber days we used all kinds of stuff to pull behind jet skies, boats, even quads when hurricanes came by and flooded the streets 😆😂

I have found kids to be as fragile or tough as you raise them to be.

We used a hood from a mid 90s full side GM truck. It works great. Definitely dangerous but we've had a blast dragging then around many times.

I'll be sure to tell their parents your advice. GFY

We used to use tubes but I’ve had a utility sled for years now, works great.

Ya something about an old hood😊idk I’ve always felt like just anything is fun. Those cheap plastic sleds don’t seem to hold up the best. Last year we used a couple plastic garbage can lids and they held up ok.

LOL ...... sometime the truth must hurt, but it still is the TRUTH!

I use a utility sled. I picked it up from Cabela’s. Tubes pop. This is thick plastic with high sides. Make sure the rope is long enough. I make them wear helmets and only I pull them. Enjoy. 😎

Big enough for one kid.....

We had like an old 50s truck hood with the rounded nose. Boy that was a blast. Basically indestructible

I think some of us had a slightly different childhood and upbringing then some of the kids now. It was just about finding some fun.

Old vw beetle hoods work the best stitches and tetanus all in one shot
