Choosing a double tubing

Recently, such entertainment as riding on an inflatable tubing has become very popular. This shell has a round shape and resembles a car tire. It is designed for downhill skiing in winter. Tubings are also called "cheesecakes". This is a kind of replacement for the usual sleds. In this article, we will take a closer look at the main characteristics of such a ride.

Inflatable tubing sleds consist of a circle-shaped chamber housed in a cover, 2 attached handles on the sides and a reinforced bottom. The shell cover is made of a very durable material, and the more vulnerable areas are reinforced using nylon tape. Such shells have a special coating that is resistant to friction when sliding off a rolling surface.

The camera inside the case allows you to cushion the impact of a possible fall or collision while rolling. With this characteristic, even with the development of high speed, it will be possible to avoid serious injury. Inflatable cheesecakes are made of high quality material - durable PVC that can withstand heavy loads and has excellent ability to slide on snow. There are also two-seater inflatable cheesecakes, designed for riding 2 adults.

The double tubing looks like a figure eight, has 4 handles, and has reinforced cable attachments for transportation. and unlike standard shells, it has a longer and wider cable.

The inflatable cheesecake has its pros and cons. Consider the pros first:

• an inflatable projectile is suitable for riding both adults and children, taking into account the selection of a suitable diameter;
• when riding a projectile, snow does not adhere due to the smooth bottom surface;
• inflatable sleds are relatively light, when deflated they take up little space and are compact during storage;
• have maximum safety due to the absence of metal and plastic parts on the projectile;
• the cheesecake can be used on slopes with a lot of snow, and lightly powdered;
• quite acceptable cost.

An inflatable ride has its drawbacks:

• some rules should be followed when descending in order to avoid injury due to uncontrollability of the projectile;
• the two-seater version has a higher weight and non-standard dimensions, so a special lift may be required for it.

Consider the best double tubing models.

For a longer operation of the inflatable device, it is recommended to ride on a specially equipped track.

Let's take a closer look at what nuances you need to pay attention to when choosing a two-seater cheesecake for riding.

• You should not focus on the color of the inflatable device. First of all, you need to consider reliability, since it is designed for extreme rolling off a snow-covered slope, which means it should be as safe as possible.
• For better sliding, the bottom of the cheesecake should be made of reinforced PVC or plastic.
• Tubing handles should be made of frost-resistant plastic material or rope (or both plastic and rope). It is not even the material itself that is important, but the method of attaching the handles to the device. The main thing is that everything is stitched with exactly strong threads.
• The rubber used in the camera must have high elasticity so that the tubing can be used at temperatures from +35 to -40 degrees.
• Before purchasing the selected inflatable structure, you should make sure that its size corresponds to the person's height (the parameters of the cheesecake are indicated in a deflated state).
• When choosing a double tubing, an option from 120 cm in diameter is suitable, but it is better to buy this product based on your own feelings.

After winter has passed, the inflatable cheesecake must be stored. To do this, you need to carry out the following work.

• Remove cameras from their covers, deflate, wipe and dry.
• The case should be stored separately from the camera to avoid rubber stains on the fabric.
• It is recommended to store the inflatable sled in a cold room. If the vault is heated, the chamber should be lowered halfway, otherwise it may swell and burst.
• It is undesirable to keep an inflated tube in a living room, since rubber, emitting an odor, can cause allergies.

With proper care and proper use, the inflatable cheesecake will serve its owner for a long time.
