Let’s go Sumo Tubing!

OK, yes, you’d look kinda stupid wearing one, but watch the video of the SportsStuff Sumo Tube and tell me you don’t think it looks like it’d be a blast. It’s probably about as close to body surfing or water skiing as I’m ever likely to get. Not that I’d need a Sumo Tube to do either of those things with the way my body is shaped already.

Some of their other stuff looks like it’d be fun as well. Any James Bond/Jackie Chan fan will want a Nuclear Globe and I wish I had a Thunderdome back when I was a kid.

Via Boing Boing.

That looks like so much fun.  And you don’t have to worry about your bathing suit going up your butt like you do when super tubing!

That was my first Boing Boing submission. Small world, eh?

That thing does look like Candy Corn- or a Weeble.

That does look fun. Since watching Gwyneth Paltrow transform into a big boned girl in Shallow Hal I’ve always wanted to wear a fat suit! I’ve never gained or lost more than 10lbs since I was 17 - regardless of how much I starve myself or lay around smoking pot, eating munchies, and drinking beer. I’m pretty sure that I would become an even lazier slob than I am now if getting out of bed meant I had to carry twice the weight around. I should thank my Mom for the good genes.

I wonder if you really got some speed under the boat and launched one of these guys off a ramp ... how far do you think you could make them bounce and skip across the water? Maybe the guys on JackAss will try it out soon.
