Water sports flags are required by law in AZ, CA, CO, ID, MO, NE, NM, OR, TX, UT and WA. AIRHEAD's new deluxe water sports flag is truly the "Cadillac" option. It's 4 feet long, that's twice as long as required by law in most states. The black shaft is manufactured from durable anodized aluminum. An EVA foam grip ensures a comfortable and secure hold. The oversized 420 denier nylon flag resists fading from the sun. Designed to fit perfectly inside AIRHEAD's new Wakeboard Tower and Bimini Top Flag Holders. It floats!
