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 skiing in the winter. Tubing is also called "cheesecakes." This is a kind of replacement for the usual sled. In this article, we will take a closer look at the main characteristics of such a tool for skiing.

Features

Inflatable sledding tubing consists of a circle-shaped camera placed in a case, 2 attached handles on the sides and a reinforced bottom. The shell cover is made of 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 from a rolled surface.

This coating contributes to the development of high speed even on slides with a small slope.

The camera inside the case allows you to soften the blow in case of a possible fall or collision when riding. With this characteristic, even with the development of high speed, serious injury can be avoided. Inflatable cheesecakes are made of high quality material - durable PVC, able to withstand heavy loads and has excellent ability to glide in the snow. Inflatable cheesecakes are also double, designed for 2 adults.

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

Compared to the single version, it has a slightly larger weight, which is why it rolls off the slope more slowly.

Inflatable cheesecake has its pros and cons. First, consider the pros:

  • an inflatable shell is suitable for riding both adults and children, taking into account the selection of a suitable diameter;
  • when riding a projectile there is no sticking of snow due to the smooth surface of the bottom;
  • inflatable sleds are relatively light, in a deflated condition take up little space and are compact during storage;
  • have maximum safety due to the absence of metal and plastic parts on the projectile;
  • cheesecake can be used on slopes with a lot of snow, and slightly powdered;
  • quite acceptable cost.

    An inflatable means for skiing has its drawbacks:

    • some rules should be followed during descent to avoid injury due to uncontrollability of the projectile;
    • the double version has more weight and non-standard sizes, so it may require a special lift.

    Criterias of choice

    Let's consider in more detail what nuances you need to pay attention to when choosing a double cheesecake for riding.

    • You should not focus on the colors of the inflatable device. First of all, reliability must be taken into account, since it is designed for extreme rolling off a snowy slope, which means it should be as safe as possible.
    • For better glide, the cheesecake bottom should be made of reinforced PVC or plastic.
    • Tubing handles should be made of plastic material resistant to frost, or of a rope (or simultaneously of plastic and rope). What matters is not even the material itself, but the way the handles are attached to the device. The main thing is that everything should be stitched with exactly strong threads.
    • The rubber used in the chamber must have high elasticity so that tubing can be operated at temperatures from +35 to -40 degrees.
    • Before purchasing the selected inflatable structure, you should make sure that its size matches the height of the person (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.

    How to store?

    After the winter, the inflatable cheesecake must be stored. To do this, carry out the following work.

    • Pull cameras out of covers, blow off, wipe and dry.
    • The cover should be stored separately from the camera to avoid extraneous rubber stains on the fabric.
    • Inflatable sleds are recommended to be stored in a cold room. If the storage is heated, then the camera should be lowered by half, otherwise it may swell and burst.
    • It is undesirable to keep the pumped-up tube in the living room, since rubber, emitting a smell, can cause allergies.

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