Higher seating float tubes

[OlDirtyBasser]

I think part of it is in the design of the tube. I don't think the Nevada ever gets tight enough to completely support your weight being focused into a small area like your elbow. Also, the diameter of the "pontoons" on the Nevada is smaller than my current tube. I do think that it was better with good inflation, but I don't remember whether or not it ever completely supported the weight of my elbows.

Before the Nevada, I had two round tubes. Those didn't have that problem, and neither does my ODC 420.
