The Fun Tube - It is a tube that is connected with a rope to a speedboat. Just give it a try and you will understand why it is called . . . FUN tube. With you sitting inside that tube, the boat slowly starts accelerating and you move just above the water at great speed. Great fun! The Banana Ride - Sitting together with 5 people on the banana, the aim is to remain seated. As the speedboat increases speed and turns you will have to hold on to the banana and try to stay sitting on it.
