I am trying to locate a set of 4 shock tubes for my new 2007 20V. It is in winter storage right now and to prepare for ski season etc. I am looking for 4 Tige OEM shock tubes for slalom skiing and tubing. My dealer does not have any and the Tige site is supposed to get some but I have been hearing that since 10-Oct. I would like a color other than black because the boat is the color of candy corn but I will settle for Black with the brand Tige on them.

I already know where I can get unlabeled tubes or Straightline but I really want to advertise Tige. TIA

I have four of the trailer guide covers. Two were on my trailer for a short period of time, but two are new. Any interest?

The dealer supplied Tige trailer guides but has no source for shock tubes. If worse come to worse I will modify some trailer guides to work but I might buy blank shock tubes and take the to a local shop and have them silkscreen Tige on them.

Thanks, I found these a week or so ago and need to find a place that will create a slkscreen from a Tige add or literature and have Tige screeened onto the un labeled tube.

Thanks Again. :D

Does anyone else use these? I can't really grasp what good these would do... I just can wrap my mind around what the benefit is...

They are mainly used for slalom skiing. If the skier is doing 32mpg and takes a fall with the stretch rope, the rope with handle usually used to end up around someones head in the boat. With this tube, it takes some of the recoil out so the handle does not hit anyone in the boat.

They also help with tubing off the ski pylon and keeping the rope out of a passengers face when someone wipes out in a tight whip and the tube goes airborn.:eek:

Tessa, the Tige factory has them. They dont show them on their site but my company was their OEM supplier for shock tubes and trailer guide covers. We have supplied them with several dozen Tige shock tubes. Ask for Melinda and tell her that I told you to call her.
