WSP Premium 50" Colored Rescue Tube

Pros: Very lightweight and easy to carry around while roving/strolling. When in the chair, the material is of really nice quality and is smooth to the touch. It is durable and we have not experienced any cracking in the material itself.

Cons: Need a small nylon strap at the opposite end of the tube, not just the shoulder strap. When we first got it it was a little too slippery in the water when we were training. Overall we are pleased with the guard tube. Note from WSP: We do have a tube with a loop at the end opposite the shoulder strap - #710T, rescue tube with reach assist. Take a look - it may be exactly what you're looking for.

WSP Premium 50" Colored Rescue Tube

Pros: Great Tube! I purchased this tube for personal use at work and to teach lifeguard courses. The buoyancy of this tube is greater than most of the tubes out there and makes it easier to move people around in the water. The tube has a great skin to it that resist the daily wear and tear and after a year of use has no nicks or cuts in it. The strap is adjustable and long enough that you aren't kicking the tube. The tube has been knelt on for CPR demos and always bounces back to its original shape after a few minutes. I will be purchasing these in the future and pushing my company to replace old tubes with this great product.

Cons: The only change I would make is to have a nylon loop (handle) on the opposite end. This would make hanging the tube, or towing in the water easier. (Edited by WSP - we do have this product, #710T, tube with reach assist loop.)
