    "legally" boat owner is at fault but ask any rider and most will say the guy on the bike should only blame himself. I ride a bike every day to work and can say $hit flies out of cars all the time and as a rider you have to be prepped.

    yep, head on a swivel when on the bike looking for all kinds of weird $hit to happen - i've swerved around more crap than I can count (i.e. boxes, misc trash and even had to go around a ladder once that was spinning in the middle of the road)

    Have the HO inflatable. Very thick-durable rubber and fits under my bow cushion. If you have ryobi products then purchase the hi flow pump for $25 and it will mostly fill it in 2 minutes. Then I firm it up to taste with the pump it comes with.

    Had a foam one prior and returned it as I never liked having it on the boat due to all the space it took up and honestly no where near the quality of the inflatables.

    My 2 cents. If that inflatable thing pops with people on it they will possibly get wrapped up in it and sink. I wouldn't be able to relax with my kids on something like that.

    I have had an HO Rad pad for several years, they are made out of the same material as inflatable paddle boards...they are extremely durable, and everyone loves them...our kids always wear life jackets when playing in the water whether on the pad or just in general

    I don’t think I’d use an air pad..I’d be afraid of kids getting caught in it.

    I know they r pricey, but this is my vote. Isn’t any more than a middle of the road surfboard really and it can roll up in a pretty small space (relative to its size)

    We have one of these inflatable pads. They are awesome. Super durable—not like a tube or air mattress. You need to check them out. Where ever we go strangers come to check it out and ask where I bought it...

    Guess that would be no fun if it popped while on it. What sold me....... The slalom shop in DFW has had the HO one on the ground in their gear shop for 3 summers now. It’s in a very high traffic area and looks pretty beat but has remain inflated with no patches.

    When I saw it this summer while visiting I was impressed enough that I finally pulled the trigger.

    That would be a killer price for one of those pads.
