How to Double Water Tube

Step 1

Once the two water tubes are in the water, make sure the ski rope is securely tied to the water tubes as well as the boat.
Step 2

Depending on the type of water tube (some water tubes are hollow in the middle, whereas others are flat on the top), take your position on the tube. If the tube is flat on top, it's best to lay on your stomach resting on your elbows and holding onto the handles. If the tube is hollow in the middle it is best to sit with your bottom in the tube and legs hanging over while you hold on with your hands.
Step 3

When the boat begins to take off, lean your body weight away from the boat or you will likely end up sinking your tube before you even take off.
Step 4

Once the boat has reached the proper speed for pulling the tubers, just relax and have fun!
