Stupid Toobers

i think it's funny you called them stupid.

haha hilarious. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Here's a close-up of the second photo so you can get the true idea.

This guy needs a "YEAH BRO" shirt from Jet Pilot. We are currently accepting donations.

ok so? whats the problem?

ignorant wakeboarders...

there are no chicks on that boat..

yea, that's sad. 9 guys no chicks. Sounds like a huge sausage fest.

I think I'm missing the point of this thread... ?

Why is it funny he called them stupid... ?

... ?

I want the YEAH BRO shirt with that guys picture on it. Hilarious.

hahahaha....that picture of him throwin the horns is the funniest thing ever.

I think he meant their stupid because theres no chicks on the boat. I don't see the problem with the driving as there appear to be no other boats out. But you gotta dig that driver. Hes obviously a party animal.

they have the same rights of being on the lake as you. unless they are purposefully getting in your way or following you too close...who cares

is that the new X-Starcraft cuddy/open bow/pickled/tri hull deck boat man ranch model? man, no wonder that driver is so stoked!!

at least they're not wakesurfing

He's rockin out to some Motley Crue!

Looks like they're having a great time in the middle of the lake....what's the issue? God forbid you have a good time at the lake, right?

and you thought it couldn't get any funnier.

yea thats lame. people tubing have no right to be on a lake. "YOU CAN ONLY COMPLAIN ABOUT TUBERS IF YOUR A PRO WAKE BOARDER". if your not then be quiet. if you dont like it. wake up earlier and ride or buy your own lake.

that pic is classic. what he really needs is a mullet

Joe, I thought I would explain why you got such a kick out of the post, but I decided against it. It's just not as funny when you have to explain it to people. I'll let you keep having your fun and enjoy the irony.

everyone stop about tubers having rights. We all hate them, they dont have any rights and we all know it.

go start a tubersworld.com if you're so supportive of them.

the guy was just showing some funny pics

haha good point Mr. Umali

Haha took me a minute on the irony.....

Uh wow.... reading this thread is making me stoopid.

now you owe a band royalties.......

Umali you are the freaking best wakeworlder in the world! hahahahaha this thread is great!

Looks like they were having a good time....

Long live tubing...

If tubing is so bad explain this picture: NOTE THE TUBES ATTACHED TO THE OVERPRICED WAKEBOAT...



looks like these hard core riders have a little fun on a tube....
http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/1/581310.html?1212684989

they should seriously have a different spot for tube's! Seriously there is nothing more frustrating then getting ready to rip nice smooth water in a cove and a tube cuts through and kills the water! Tubing is about hitting rough water anyways! go out to the open!! stay out of the coves!

man, i dont mind tubing. Yes, it sucks when guys are out there tossin up the glass, but I think I speak for most of us that the first "watersport" activity I had ever partook (or is it partaken)...anyway..was probably TUBING. Tubing opened my eyes to boats, other watersports, ect. I was probably like 2yrs old riding around at 5mph w/ my mom or something, you know what I mean. Tuuuuuuuuuubing, got me to where I am with liking wakeboarding ya know. And your darn right, if its ruff waters, and theres nobody riding out on the lake, tie up the tube, chug a beer, and have some fun..

plus hot babes love tubing...and "SUPERMANS!"

yea nothing like a tube ride with 2 chicks on top of ya. cop a feel?

"O NO I LOST MY TOP!!"

*holds top under water with toes*

I cracked up at this...

is that the new X-Starcraft cuddy/open bow/pickled/tri hull deck boat man ranch model? man, no wonder that driver is so stoked!!

I agree with trevor... there stupid

apparently deck boats drive themselves so no one needs to look where the boat is going...

"YOU CAN ONLY COMPLAIN ABOUT TUBERS IF YOUR A PRO WAKE BOARDER"

Only pro wakeboarders like glassy water?

I was thinking the opposite. Pro riders can still kill it in bad water....unlike most of us.

this is true they can rip in bad water... but look in all the wakeboard videos... do you see bad water? Nope!!

I'm impressed with the t-ups. Most tube drivers have no clue how to set them up. Looks like they are having fun to me...yeah pics would be better with some bun in it, but I have seen plenty of hardcore wakeboats without any boatfluff.

Just walk by them on the ramp with the shirt that says: "Tubings for fat kids" We wear ours with pride. I don't have a problem with tubing, except when they are destroying the only line on the lake or creating a safety hazard.

Ya I wonder how quickly we could progress if we had glass to ride on all the time.

J-Rod - i'm a little disappointed that you would put those tubers higher on a podium than wakesurfers. I wakesurf and will say this....we drive in a straight line and we don't wakesurf where others are wakeboarding. Tubers are going a lot faster and turning every which way tearing the water up in all directions. Maybe you came across some really disrespectful wakesurfers that were arching their turns in the only smooth water. But don't act like wakesurfing is such a horrible thing. At least we are out there enjoying a BOARD SPORT that one can progress at, as opposed to being slung around aimlessly to see who falls off.

I say shame on anyone for acting like you own the water. True, everybody should be respectful of others on the water and know how and where to ride so all can enjoy. I am just happy to be on the water as everyone SHOULD be!

So everyone quit your complaining and go out and enjoy life and and the water!

SIDENOTE: I DO GET PISSED WHEN TUBERS COME INTO THE ONLY COVE WITH SMOOTH WATER BUT WHEN THEY STOP I GO AND EXPLAIN POLITELY WHY THEY SHOULD TAKE THEIR BOAT TO THE CHOPPY WATER (BECAUSE IT ENHANCES THE TUBING EXPERIENCE). I DO THIS AFTER I OFFER THEM A BEER SO THEY DON'T SEE ME AS BEING NEGATIVE!

Nate, I think he meant because it's an I/O.

Tubers have no souls and they can't see themselves in a mirror and they have no shadow so you can never see them sneaking up on you...

if that's the case i understand..i have seen people surfing with I/O and outboards....very dumb idea!

Jason,

I get it now, tubers are really government spies, the government has quit using the black helicopters and have switched to big bertha tubes......

The government wants to ban wakeboarding....hide your boards boys...

That is ingenious!!!we will never see them coming...

I've actually had some tubers complaining about waverunners messing up their smooth water...

Jeff i have the T-Shirt i love it

The basic requirements for making a tube ride exciting are powerturns and crossing big wakes.

I would consider these guys total idiots if they were holding a straight line and avoiding wakeboats.

Yea, I got one for my son. It's awesome.

YEA... your rite! toobers have no rite being out their on the water!
There so stoopid!

Yea, I got a shirt for my son. It's awesome.

where is the movie??

For extreme tubers, Overton's offers these........

^^^^

I don't get it . . .?

is there something wrong with wearing gloves . . .?

The gloves make me very sad. They're along the lines of professional video gaming.

I can't imagine why wakeboarders get the rep of being punks and full of themselves.

Im a professional tuber! It's comin back just like kneeboarding

Tubers are to watersports what Gingers are to mankind...

(no I dont' really believe that I'm just bored at work and I want to read what people have to say so on your marks, get set, go!)

no doubt! yall just wait until my pro model tube comes out!!!!!

2008 Nate-O Inflato

I'm excited for it.

In all seriousness though, I get the tubing thing. They enjoy it and that's that. It's an inconvenience for us, but if they could just drive with an ounce of courtesy it wouldn't be a problem.

i didn't know pro wakeboarders owned the lakes.

Has anyone seen the new Sevylor Wakeslider yet? I thought the point of tubing was to trust the driver to throw you around like a rented mule. not steer yourself at your own pace. Then again, maybe these people would have courtey and not be power turning left and right.

And we wonder why we are fighting a war in the Middle East. Negative people are much worse than tubers. At least tubers are trying to have fun.

Wow! That's a huge leap. Iraqi war is caused by toober haters.

third pic down is the major problem with tubing. look at the driver he is not even looking were he is going. not to mention he is f-ing up the water on the whole lake.

^^^Yeah, I'm sure that you've never looked back while pulling someone....straight ahead at all times

tube gloves.... its official. Tubing is no longer a weekend activity. It is now a sport. uh oh

I know all of you deep down, deep deep down, would love to go tubing if you werent bugging anyone. I dont see the big problem with thses guys, they look like their having a shiat load of fun, tubing is so much fun, especially behind a donzi at 60 mph

hmm....... ocean barge anybody?

^^^That my friend, is going to hurt!

Haha, that looks like fun. Kinda like watching tubers hit your wake.

yes when i take the responsibility of driving i watch were i am going at ALL times. maybe a quick glance in the mirror put what this guy is doing is how people get killed.

tubers have the best of both worlds.. water or snow with the same equipment..

ive seen rusty, glenn from o-town, and one of the liquid force pros (cant remember which one) on a tube. i even have it on video.
