  • Thick fabric, well made
Style: Big Mable - 2 Rider
This thing is a beast. It is very well made with good seams and stitching. It inflates quickly given its size. It is very heavy and cumbersome to move around on dry land, but in the water it works great. It glides across the water and can be used forward facing or rear facing. I would recommend getting a buoy ball to keep the line out of the water. It is easy to clean and stores deflated in a small area on the boat. This is worth every penny. It is great for smaller kids that feel safer with a full back and higher sides. ... show more

  • We love it!
Style: Super Mable - 3 Rider
This was our third towable for the summer and this one we loved. We purchased two other brands that weren't quite as large and not as cushioned. One of the others had a leak straight out of the packaging. It was smooth enough that we were able to put our four year old grandson on it with his Dad and he barely bounced. If you are looking for a super bouncy ride and a tipable towable this is not the one for you. It's steady and smooth compared to others. ... show more

  • Perfect for smaller kids
Style: Super Mable - 3 Rider
I bought this for our five kids to use and even the youngest (5) has no trouble holding on while being pulled. Just make sure all the inflation ports are pushed all the way in when you get going or they will pop open and the tube will deflate. We only used it a few times this season so hoping it holds up as the years go on. ... show more

  • Tips to Survive on the Big Mable
Style: Big Mable - 2 Rider
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

  • Kids love this tube. Wish it lasted longer.
Style: Super Mable - 3 Rider
We have a large family with lots of grandkids and Big Mable is always their favorite ride. They get more bounce from it than the round-type tubes. Very happy with the prompt delivery time of our order. The main negative about Big Mable (this is our 4th) is that the cover, particularly the handles, don’t weather well. We only get two seasons and then the handles that attach to the tube β€œrot.” The bladder remains in good shape but kids can’t hold on. Alas, the solution is to knife the bladder and order new. Perhaps a replacement cover might be available but I’ve not looked for one. ... show more

  • Totally Insane Toy
Have only used it for Memorial Day weekend so far but am 100% pleased. I bought a pump to inflate it (Sevylor 2000016327 Pump 120V 2.5Psi available on Amazon - I highly recommend it) because I figured this would be big. And it is big. Really big. Great Big, as it were. With 4 teenage girls on this thing (in the sitting position) it is the easiest thing I have ever pulled. It takes no talent at all to get it swinging around wwwaaayyyyy outside the wakes or skittering around fast turns. All riders were extremely pleased and even bouncing over some pretty good chop with 2-3 feet of air under it, it was really stable and solid. Peals of howling laughter kind of fun. Using the chariot style pull makes riding it more challenging for those looking for that but it still pulls really easily. Note that only one quick-connect is on this thing and it is in the seated configuration. You have to thread a rope through some straps to pull it chariot style so switching positions can be problematic. We mostly left it in the seated style. Appears to be well built and durable with the usual neoprene pads, Boston valves, and padded handles you would expect. If you have a group of people to pull, this is your toy. Highly recommended. Oh yeah, that big ball thing on the tow rope in the pictures is not part of this. That is a separate thing (SPORTSSTUFF Towable Booster Tube) that we used for the previous flat towable we had. I wouldn't say it is necessary for the Mable but it didn't hamper the experience either and helps to manage the rope shock. ... show more
