That thing would wig me completely out. It doesn't look like a life jacket would be used either if you are trying to dive? They don't have them on in the pictures, so I'd imagine you dont. Another thing that would spook the crap outta me!

I suppose you could wear one of those inflatable vests, as long as you dont bonk your head on something in the water.

I have not tried this but if I did I thought I would use my snorkel gear. No life jacket.

So took it out for a sponge yesterday and had a great time.
Just idealed around while pulling it. Kids and adults both loved it. Worked fine with a life jacket. Norris has great visibility but nothing to see., And it is deep enough you aren't ever going to hit the bottom. Diving down twisting and back up was a lot of fun. Easy to do and catch on to.
Not a whole lot to see from the pics but posted a few. Most of the time it was a single rider but the pics are of my daughter and friend doing it. Really have to work as a team when both are on it.
