The ultimate "no-rash" ride for the whole crew
Best for: Families who want to ditch the drag of standard tubes for something that actually glides - and doesn't rub your elbows raw.
The KD Hellcat is built to fix the two biggest complaints people have with big deck tubes: they’re hard to pull and they’re abrasive on the skin. By using a winged shape, the Hellcat breaks the 'suction' that flat tubes usually have with the water, making it feel lighter and faster behind the boat.
Instead of a standard nylon cover, the entire top is finished with a soft-touch surface so you can stay out all day without the dreaded 'tube rash'.
Our Verdict: This is a 'big-day-out' tube that actually prioritizes rider comfort. It's durable, fits three adults easily, and is one of the easiest-towing large tubes in our range.
Built to inject a daily dose of side-to-side rocker and bouncing fun for the whole family, the KD Hellcat is a high-end tube without the outrageous prices.
Emulating the classical bombers planes, the KD Hellcat is a winged excitement machine, not only does it raised sides reduce the overall drag with less contact with the water, but it skips across both rough & smooth water without the need for aggressive driving to deliver a wild ride.
As the largest tube in the KD Sports winged range, the Hellcat is a full 86inchs wide from wing to wing, giving three adult passengers ample room to lie side by side on their stomachs. No expense has been spared on the KD Hellcat, with a full neoprene top deck that not only looks great but eliminates the nasty tube rash caused by cheaper nylon topped tubes.
Dual flanking nylon web straps are fitted to the tail of the Hellcat to assist with reboarding after a spill and the heavy-duty nylon cover is built using a three-piece construction that ensures a gusseted side around the full permitter creates stronger seams and helps to reduces the likelihood of splitting edges.
If you’re looking for a big tube with minimal drag that the whole family can ride on without breaking the bank? then the KD Hellcat is the tube for you!
