You really need to paint them yellow though, black is to hard of a colour to see when searching for your board.

Damn, if only my board had a handle! (And just think of the board-off tricks you could do with that!)

@Saffer:
From what I heard it is only compatible with Ronix Cells, because they were designed with GoJoes in mind.

Thanks. I was thinking of running a string between the binding holes. I could even put a quick release on it so I can pull the tube off and use it as a life saving device for people who don't have them when they lose their board. Maybe I could paint it like a life buoy.

Just attach it to the under side of your board, of course

No worries. Always willing to share some wisdom and give back to the community.
This is my way to push the sport.
Apart from that, I did not even know you are riding Cells as well.
The life saving device sounds like a very altruistic idea to me, I like that mindset.

I think you all give Slave too much credit.
He never said he invented or made the Tube-Go-Joe.
I think his skills only extend to finding pictures on the internet.

I must admit, I like the videos on the internet better

I've seen the same done with arm bands/ water wings - you know.... the kids floaties that slip on their arms. There bright orange and cheaper too.
