Deputy Butskaya reported on the development of GOST on tubing

The State Duma is working on the creation of the State Standard on tubing. This was reported on January 25 by the first deputy chairman of the lower house of parliament's committee on family protection Tatyana Butskaya.

"When you sit in a tubing, your head is lower than your feet. You do not see where you are flying, so the design of that cotton candy that is sold, it should be such that the person who sits in it, he saw where he is flying," she told "RIA Novosti".

The deputy also drew attention to the lack of brakes on the tubing. She added that "tubing" should be used as part of the "winter slide" attraction, as in this case they move along a safe trajectory and do not collide with obstacles.

Butskaya said that for the development of GOST will attract specialists who will be engaged in the creation of brakes for tubing.

Earlier, on January 19, the director of projects "SberStrakhovanie" Elena Kosheleva told "Izvestia" that the right equipment is important for riding on tubing. It is necessary to choose a "tubing" of the appropriate size to fit the weight and age of the rider. Before using it, you need to make sure that its handles are intact and there is no damage. Given the high speed of tubing, one should not neglect protection - a helmet should be worn by both children and adults, the expert emphasized.
