Video: Tubing in Whistler

Tubing in Whistler

WHISTLER, BC (Geared Up Blog) - We all went on an adventure to try out Tube Park at Whistler Blackcomb tonight. This involves sitting in a rubber tube (like those at the beach) down a specially groomed slope. There are about 6 lanes going down the mountain ranging in difficulty from easy (green run) to really fast (Black Diamond!)

My first attempt of videoing a run didn’t go as planned, I started with the camera zoomed in! Then the lifty decided to start me off spinning, really really fast! Even tho it was the easier (of the two runs open), it looks all over the place. My second attempt you can see shows you exactly how fast you get thrown down the slope!

It is an excellent evening activity after a hard day on the slopes! Well worth the money, and I highly recommend it if you are this side of the world!

i agree, great video! i took the liberty of sharing it over on my blog as well. I added another tuber who whipped down the circuit during the day, just to give viewers a taste of both.
