3-Person Sit-Down Towable Tube — Radar
|
Who this is for
Groups of three who want a comfortable, controlled ride on Okanagan Lake — not a wild one. The Chase 3 is a sit-down tube with real seats, high backrests, and neoprene padding. Great for mixed groups, younger kids, and anyone who wants to actually enjoy the ride rather than just survive it.

The tube
The Radar Chase 3 is the three-person version of the Chase family — same high backrests, same neoprene padded seats, same Spoon-O-Vation bottom that makes it genuinely quick and connected through turns on Kalamalka Lake. At 63” × 70” it’s the most manageable of the Chase lineup — easier to tow, easier to board from the water, and easier to store at the end of the day than the four-person version. The cup holders mean it doubles as a dock float when the session winds down, and the quick-tow attachment keeps setup fast. If you’re comparing to the Chase 4, the Chase 3 is simply scaled down for a smaller group — same ride quality, more manageable size. Built from 840D nylon over a 30-gauge PVC bladder, backed by Radar’s 1-year limited warranty.

Which tube is right for your group?
|
Sit-Down Style — Chase 3, Chase 4, Laguna, 2G/3G
Better for younger kids, older adults, or anyone who wants a fun but more controlled ride. Sitting upright gives riders more stability and makes it easier to hang on through turns. We also carry the Chase 4, Laguna 2, Laguna 3, 2G and 3G.
|
Lay-Down Style — Sunset 3/4 & Radar Astro/Liftoff
The wild ride. Riding prone puts you low to the water and cranks up the intensity through every turn. Our pick for teenagers and thrill-seekers who want to get launched. We carry the Sunset 3, Sunset 4, Radar Astro and Radar Liftoff.

What makes it work
|
Spoon-O-Vation Bottom
Radar’s scooped bottom design reduces drag and keeps the tube connected to the water through turns. Even at a more relaxed speed on Okanagan Lake, the Chase 3 rides with real purpose — it crosses the wake cleanly and holds its line through turns rather than skipping and bouncing like a basic round tube.
|
|
|
Neoprene Seats + High Backrests
Padded neoprene seats and high backrests give the Chase 3 a level of comfort you won’t find on a flat deck tube. Riders are properly supported through the session rather than perched on a flat surface — which matters a lot for younger kids and older adults who want to stay comfortable across a longer ride on Kalamalka Lake.
|
|
|
Cup Holders + GoPro Mount + Knuckle Guards
Cup holders built into the tube mean it doubles as a dock float when you’re not moving — tie it off and lounge on a slow afternoon on Okanagan Lake. The built-in GoPro-compatible camera mount captures the session from the tube itself. Neoprene knuckle guards protect hands through wakes and turns without making the handles uncomfortable to grip.

Heavy-duty 840-denier nylon cover over a 30-gauge PVC bladder for long-term durability across a full Okanagan summer. Quick-tow attachment for fast rope hookup at the dock, Boston valve for quick inflation and deflation. 1-year limited warranty.

Attridge Pro Tip — Inflation & Care
Tubes expand in the heat of an Okanagan summer day — never inflate to maximum pressure on a cool morning and leave the tube sitting in direct sun. Always inflate with a little room to spare, then check pressure again after 10–15 minutes in the sun. Before every session, check that your Boston valve caps are tight and fully seated — a loose cap is the most common cause of a slow-leaking tube. After use, rinse with fresh water, let it dry before rolling up, and store out of direct sunlight to protect the cover from UV damage.
