Ways For Children To Prevent Water Tubing Injuries

By

Here are some ways for children to prevent water tubing injuries:

  • Wear a personal floatation device (PFD). If a water tubing accident happens, a life vest may prevent drowning.
  • Have a spotter, whose only job is to keep an eye on those who are tubing. The spotter should tell the driver of any issues, such as falling off the tube or rider requests to slow down.
  • Check the tow rope before starting. The tow rope should be free of slack and should not be tangled with any objects. The tube can flip leading to accidents

Tubing Dangers & Precautions

By

If your child goes tubing, there are certain precautions the adult boat driver should take. Adults should be alert to how wide the tube is swinging out from the wake. Look for possible obstacles for collisions. Boat drivers should slow down when towing tubes. Children riding in tubes can’t make changes in direction and when towed at higher speeds, the tube tends to whip wide outside the boat’s wake.

Tomorrow we will look at how kids can protect themselves while tubing.
