| SPORTS SHOW PREVIEW In the world of outdoor summer recreation, water sports rank high. No matter the size of the lake, river or pond, you will find water enthusiasts enjoying themselves on it when the weather turns hot. Inflatable Summer Fun By Wes Engbrecht The variety of inflatable water toys has grown considerably in recent years. There are high-speed towing loungers with open decks or the less challenging versions with backrests and built-in seats. They can accommodate 50 thecitymag.com

Your wave runner will be the most versatile option, but any speed boat will provide adequate towing capability as well. For stationary enjoyment for the entire family, try out the inflatable trampolines and waterslides. You can also buy modular systems that create a “water park” feel. You can turn any bay into a veritable wonderland of excitement for your crew. Best of all, you should experience fewer injuries as the water will break your fall. If you just want to soak up some rays, maybe an inflatable island or lanai is just what you need. They are available in all shapes and sizes and should provide that level of relaxation you’ve been dreaming of all winter. To find dealers of these products, just do your online research. Websites such as www.scheels.com and www.aquaglide.net will give you a starting point. Aquaglide® is a supplier of all types of inflatable water toys. The company’s website will give you a great range of options and then you can narrow your search down to that type of product to find one that fits your needs. As with any water sport, safety is always a concern. Be sure to pick out the toys that fit your family’s capabilities. Whipping a child on a tube behind a wave runner looks fun, but it can easily become dangerous with too much speed. Have fun and be careful! This summer, don’t be left out. Go online or to your nearest recreational supply store and pick out your favorites. You will be amazed at how much fun you’ve been missing on the water!
