I am pulling the tube with a 19.5' Larson with a 4.3L V6 with two adults or three small children on it. If the kids are on it am going about 10 to 15 MPH and I have not had an issue at all. With the adults I will get it up to about 30 to 35 MPH. The only thing that has happened (and it has happened several times) is with the adults, both inflation plugs pop out and the tube deflates on the water.I'm not talking big guys eaither. We may have three hundred punds on the tube when the plug pops out.

Hard to get to firm inflation. Back section too difficult to inflate. Front valve constantly comes open with only one rider. Not as good as the mable series was. Even inflated with leaf blower and won't get to full inflation without losing air even with internal valve closed.

We have had a blast with our Big Brawler. We did have an issue with the lower badder popping but Gander Mountain replaced it for us.

Comments about Gladiator 2-Rider Big Brawler Towable:
After just having the tube for two years the filling valve tore. We repaired it with goop and the next trip out the middle bladder broke so the tube became round. Disappointed for the money it cost us

Comments about Gladiator 2-Rider Big Brawler Towable:
We towed this both directions. Some of the more adventurous liked the kneeling position. Defininately a more wild ride. The sitting position was a lot of fun for the younger kids and older "kids". I can't wait to get my grandson on it behind the pontoon in a couple of years.

Comments about Gladiator 2-Rider Big Brawler Towable:
Ensure the connector is completely pulled through the loop. With light weight riders the connector tends to slip back through the loop and "submarines," dives downwards. Maintaining a steady speed and keeping an eye on the loop while towing light weight and you'll have a great ride!

Comments about Gladiator 2-Rider Big Brawler Towable:
This tube has a great ride. The only negative I have is that it was shipped with the seat bladder upside down. We had to flip it while it was in the nylon cover. Once that was done, it was easy to inflate.

Q:
Is there a weight limit or recommendation on this product?Asked on 11/30/2010 by Anonymous1 answer
A:
We've had some pretty large adults on this thing, and it held up pretty good. It will ride and track better if the two people on it are about the same size, but it will still work with an Adult and a Child riding together. The stress factor for larger loads is when you are first starting out; pulling it from a dead stop out of the water. This is where it will make the cover take the most punishment.Answered on 6/30/2011 by Tom Footer from Dublin, VA
