The VX is a 3 person ski and will pull a skier (I would't try a slalom skier), tube, wakeboarder, etc., but I'd recommend the larger FX or even better the FX HO for towing. The VX feels a little un-balanced towing or with 3 passengers. I can pull 2 adults on a heavy tube with my FX HO with no problems. I've tried towing my brother's 2 kids behind his VX and it works, but you really feel it on the ski. If you are pulling an adult and need holeshot go for the FX HO or SHO. The newer model FX HO and SHO also have a cruise assist that is nice for towing, since it allows you to easily maintain a constant speed or bump it up or down slightly.
