for all who are interested.

July 14, 2006 — At the height of summer, the Consumer Product Safety Commission announced Thursday the recall of a type of kite tube, a large inflatable device that lets people ride behind a motorboat, similar to water skiing.

The commission issued the recall after a three-week investigation into the behavior of the Wego kite tube in different weather conditions. The investigation was spurred by two deaths and several injuries this year from the relatively new extreme sport.

and after seeing the poor guy trying to control it last weekend in our cove - I am in favor of the ban.
