Towing with 2016 wake155

[Fonz]

I have just purchased a used 2016 wake155 and reading some comments about it I am confused about towing tubes. Some Comments have said do not pull tubes with it, wakeboards are fine.
They are saying a tube could pull the wake tower right off the mounting brackets. Any clarification would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

When Seadoo went to the the linQ tower (snap in) they were derated for not pulling tubes. The earlier permanent mounted towers were advertised for pulling tubes. The derated linQ tower is rated for pulling wake boards with a 180lb wakeboarder. So you you have to use a little common sense. If you whip start a wakeboarder you will pull the rope out of his hands. If you whip start a large under inflated tube with 5 teenagers aboard you will pull any tower down including permanent mounted boat towers.
