Sylvan Tubing policies:

• A minimum height restriction of 42” in order to tube. The height restriction ensures that tubers are of sufficient size to quickly exit the tubes and the landing area, reducing potential collisions.

• No riding double on tubes. Multiple riders on the same tube may be at risk of impacting with other riders in the same tube. This includes holding small children on one’s lap.
