Best in TowBehind Toys by Mike Petrucelli photos by Mike Deak
Plenty of fun can be had on boats. Most everyone understands that. But do you really have to be in the boat to enjoy yourself? Most definitely not, with the help of the right ‘toy.’ From water skis to wakeboards to inflatables, great water tow-behind toy options are plentiful. And there’s even one popular toy (it’s more like a ‘ride’) on the market that doesn’t require a boat.
Funky but fun
New this year is the Connelly Ninja TwoRider towable tube. Hannah-Marie Lamle at Bart’s Water Sports in North Webster likens it to a tube with what looks like two mechanical bull rides on top. These ‘seats’ are a way of mimicking a motorcycle, with handles as well, allowing riders to lean into turns. “It’s a little bit funky (compared to other tubes), but fun,” Lamle said.
