Great safety for open water swimming
By Sandra from Winnipeg, MB on 8/26/2020
Fit: NA
I can take this Rescue Pull with me for open water swimming. I am very new to open water swimming (about 2 months). At age 72, I feel that I have progressed well from being unable to swim 6 years ago. Now I want to avoid the unpleasant possibility of drowning. I can clip it around my waist as a life belt or tow it with the long strap which also fits around my waist. The straps are well-attached with secure buckles. It is very comfortable. It is a bright red! I also want to mention that this item reached me in about one week, which is very quick!

Great product! Wish we had bought sooner!
By scac from Kennett, MO on 6/24/2019
Purchased for our city pool. Over the years the lifeguards picked at the tubes. We purchased tube covers for all tubes new & old. Fit great and will make all tubes last longer.

Alternative to Swim Safe device for Open Water swimmer
By Lwong from Pleasanton Ca on 7/11/2014
Purchased to tow along on open water swims. Modified webbing by adding a buckle to webbing so that I can wear it comfortably around waist. Comfortable, no drag and makes me visible to boats in the open water plus it is a good rescue device should it be needed for yourself or swim partners.

It is alright
By Eliza A. from REDMOND, WA on 1/14/2014
I use it for open water swimming. it is nice because two people can fit on it. You might think that is not useful but I have been in situations when you find people swimming without this and they get tired and they need some help. The only thing that I don't like is that my feet are constantly kicking it.

Great way to restore an old rescue tube
By Claudia from Colonial Heights VA on 8/9/2013
We had 3 very tired, cracked rescue tubes I considered replacing. With the covers, I was able to tape the cracks and cover the tape and still continue to use the tubes for a fraction of what it would have cost to replace them. Great value!

Works well
By Ann C. from Seal Beach, CA on 4/25/2013
Our lifeguards appreciated having the strap attached so they could tow it while swimming out. It was easy for the girls to grab as they were "rescued" during training.

Great Tube
By upstate NY waterfront director from Old Forge, NY on 7/6/2012
The clip on the tube is great, the lining is durable and the strap is comfortable and not abrasive. Although I am mostly satisfied with the tube I would like to see an adjustable shoulder strap rather than the fixed one currently.

Gives extra life to old tubes!
By Abigail S. from Hanover, KS on 6/5/2012
I love this product the only thing that would make it a 5 star is if it were a bit easier to get on the tubes! It is a two person job by far but great product!

By Megan W. from Sedalia, MO on 5/7/2012
I plan to use this for our community dock at the lake. I like that it has the body loop on the end that makes it easy to swim with.

Rescue tubes are actually 44 inches
By Christine H. from North Lima, OH on 3/30/2012
I bought 3 of these tubes last summer on clearance; but the tubes are 44 inches long, so the tube covers I had would not fit over them. Without the covers, these rescue tubes began cracking within a month. Currently, the red vinyl is peeling off very badly. Since they were on clearance, I thought that maybe the company was changing the product specs when I saw them available again on SwimOutlet.com. So, I purchased a few more this year thinking that they might actually be 40 inches this time. But they aren't. I know that I could use neoprene sleeves to cover them, but eLifeguard makes these really cool covers that cover 40 inch tubes end-to-end, which protect the entire tube.

perfect rescue tube
By alex k. from scottsdale, AZ on 1/23/2012
i work in the film industry as a water safety coordinator. This rescue tube is perfect for working with actors in the water, its very floaty and soft. the 40" tube is a great size, not to big with plenty of buoyancy to float 1 or 2 people

Awesome
By Frogman from Chatsworth, Georgia on 10/14/2011
I use the product in long distance swimming on the lake along with a boat beside me. Other boaters can identify it quickly, because of the bright yellow color which is better than the red color. I could not find anything negative about the product.

Yellow Guard Rescue Tube for Visibility
By Swimkity from Salisbury, CT on 8/12/2011
Besides being a rescue tube for potential life saving water emergencies; this tube is what I use to swim in our lakes and other water systems where boaters may be fishing?
Everyone says they can see my tube from all over the lake due to the color of the tube. I have never had a close call when swimming for distance due to the high visibility of this tube.

Guard Rescue Tube
By Charlotte O'Toole from Boxford, MA on 8/10/2011
The day after my rescue tube arrived, I swam across our local pond and back, a total of about 1.5 miles. I've lived in my town for 33 years and only explored the far side by kayak! It was comfortable and I forgot it was even floating along behind me. Sure gave me the needed confidence. Perfect for a grandmother who likes to swim out with the bigger fish!

I feel safe swimming with my guard
By Brooke Trout from Monroe, NY on 6/22/2011
I swim the lake with my guard trailing behind me . My friends each have one and sometimes we just swim out to the middle of the lake and literally hang out with our guards , resting and chatting before we swim back. My husband doesn't worry about me either. It's all good.
