Just came across www.floatingtoys.com which is buywakes all tube website...just sorta found it a interesting that they would advertise so heavily that they don't carry tubes, yet they dedicate a whole site to it.....

Interesting. Welcome to the world of unethical marketing. They've been going down hill the last couple years anyway.

Unethical is a bit of stretch, don't you think? More like "Welcome to the world of successful branding."

Ambush wanted their piece of the inflatable pie, so instead of getting it through BuyWake, they started another site. Nobody called them unethical when BuySkateShoes or BuySnow popped up; it's the same thing, just a lamer product.

Get money, get paid.

Unethical? give me a break even liquid force is trying to cash in on the inflatable market with a line of their own and they've been boasting they are a wakeboard only company for awhile.

On a side note buywake hooks up the college scene real well so props to them!

I'm so glad you posted this. This will most likely ruin my weekend, and maybe my life!

It's good for riders to have a separate site like this. Then you don't have to sift through all that BS to get to the stuff you're interested in.

I bought two new tubes last week. Gotta have something to do in the afternoons when the water is trashed.
