Couch, Chariot, Chill: Towable Tube Rides from Kimberling City.
The WOW Sports Max Vibes 1–3 person towable is a classic summer staple on the lake: a couch-shaped, front-and-back towable with secure deck seating, high backrest and side walls that make it as useful for lounging and swimming as it is for whipped, turn-heavy tow runs.

WOW Sports Max Vibes — built for security and versatility
The Max combines front and back tow points with secure deck seating, a high backrest and side walls to give timid or young riders added security while still allowing more aggressive whips and turns for thrill-seekers.
Couch, Chariot, or Laid-Back Lounging
You can tow the tube front-facing ‘couch style’ or lay back, flip it to kneel ‘chariot style’ for a more intense ride, or use the couch-shaped design afterward as a swim platform and lounging spot.
Hourly Rates, Rider Limits, and Rules
Rentals are offered by the hour with tiered pricing; the towable supports 1–3 riders up to a maximum capacity of 510 lbs, and customers must be 18 or older to rent.
