Motorized T-Rex Pool Float: Jurassic Pool

Posted on 30/06/2022 by hite

Summer is officially here, and you know what that means – hoping somebody invites me to a pool party. And to spice things up in the pool this summer is this motorized t-rex pool float (affiliate link) from PoolCandy. The inflatable dinosaur features a 3-blade propeller powered by a 66-watt motor and six D batteries that allow you to cruise in any direction you want to. I don’t know about you, but I’ll be steering towards the swim-up bar!

As far as capturing the likeness of a t-rex goes, they didn’t do a fantastic job. It’s still terrifying, though, just not in the way I’d expect a t-rex to be. It’s more of a ‘Good lord, what happened to you?!’ kind of way.

Don’t have the money to spend on a fancy motorized t-rex pool float? No worries, that’s what pool noodles were made for. They’re not that fun, but they are cost-effective. That’s what my parents got me when I was a kid, and we didn’t even have a pool, just a bathtub.

Giant Cassette Tape Pool Float Is The Perfect Summer Mixtape

Posted on 21/03/2022 by hite

Designed to look almost identical to a Maxell UR90 cassette tape, the Maxchill Classic Cassette Tape Pool Float (affiliate link) from LÔTELI is perfect for floating around a pool reminiscing about all the mixtapes you used to make for girlfriends or boyfriends back in the ’80s and ’90s. And I made the best mixtapes, just so we’re clear. I only wish I’d asked for them back when we inevitably broke up.

The oversized float measures 72″ x 46″ to comfortably fit one adult or two children or uncomfortably fit two adults or four children. Stop elbowing me; I’m trying to tan! Gosh, I bet I still have a whole bunch of random Maxell tapes lying around here somewhere. And probably in a box labeled JUNK.

Is my body summer and pool ready? Of course not, but that’s not going to stop me from showing off my ghost-white physique at every pool party I’m invited to. Or, I should say, IF I’m invited to any. I swear, you pee in the pool one time, and all of a sudden, the invites dry up like a desert.

This Inflatable Pool Float Tank Has an Integrated Water Cannon

Posted on 29/04/2021 by hite

What better way to let everybody know who rules the pool than with a $150 Pool Punisher (affiliate link), an inflatable pool float that looks like a tank and has an integrated pump-style water cannon that can shoot up to 50-feet. Nobody trying to sunbathe by the pool will be safe this summer! Also, my wife is probably going to kill me when I spray her when she’s trying to read.

Get two Pool Punishers for the ultimate in water cannon pool battles! How can you tell who wins? Whoever drinks less pool water. Obviously, I’ve already lost because I was thirsty.

When I was a kid we didn’t have Pool Punishers. We didn’t even have pool noodles. Shoot, we didn’t even have pools, we played in a pond with catfish. They never lost at playing Marco Polo either, I can tell you that. They did lose at not being dinner though.

Pink Coffin Pool Float Is for the Cheerful Goth

Posted on 26/04/2019 by Shane McGlaun

What do you do if you’re into the goth scene and your friends invite you to the beach? Finding a black swimsuit wouldn’t be an issue, but I’m not sure you’re allowed to walk around with a tan. Fortunately, we have your fix.

This pink coffin pool float would be perfect for the for upbeat nihilists wanting to be around friends, outdoors, near the water, in the summertime. Black would be a better color choice, but the pink will make you look more cheerful.

The lid is removable so someone can float next to you should they desire. Or you can climb into the coffin and shut the top to keep your pasty complexion intact. It’s not cheap at $99, but it beats whipping your own up with pool noodles, duct tape, and cheap rafts from Walmart.

This Jurassic World T-Rex Pool Float Is So Wrong Its Right

Posted on 11/04/2019 by Conner Flynn

There’s something odd about this T-Rex but I can’t put my finger on it. It might be the fact that its body is shaped like a donut. Yeah, that’s it. You’re not looking so ferocious in that shape are you mister T-Rex?

Well, I mean, he’ll still tear you apart in the pool. This is the officially licensed Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom T-Rex Pool Float. For 40 bucks, you get a 70-inch dinosaur. I’m no math wiz, but that’s less than a dollar per dinosaur-inch. Inflate this bad boy, throw it in the pool and hop on. You are now king of the water dinosaurs. That’s right. The T-Rex has now evolved to be an aquatic creature, even though those arms clearly can’t help it swim. Nature is weird like that.

Look at the smile on this guy. He’s happy to be in the water on a hot day. They should have just made a T-Rex head and had it weighted so that it looks like this guy is rising up from the water, because I really just want to scare people in the pool. But it’s still pretty cool to be able to ride a water T-Rex like I’m Jurassic Aquaman.

NES Controller Pool Float: Press “Start” to Swim

Posted on 08/11/2017 by Paul Strauss

It’s getting a bit too cold here in Chicago to even think about going for a swim, but I’m pretty sure lots of us will be heading to warmer points South this winter for vacation. And if you’re going somewhere with a swimming pool, you’ll want to bring a pool float. It’s dangerous to float alone. Take this.

There are lots of cool pool floats out there, but they often sacrifice utility and comfort for their design, with strange and awkward shapes like bananas or poop emoji. On the other hand, this pool float takes advantage of the rectangular shape of the classic NES controller. Sure, it wasn’t the most ergonomic shape for a gamepad, but it makes a great floating mattress. Plus, it looks cool doing it.

If you’re a Nintendo fan, you must have one of these the next time you hit the pool. It’s just $24.99 over at Craziest Gadgets. Now if only they made this Super Mario swim suit for adults…

Let’s Taco ‘Bout This Goofy Pool Float

Posted on 04/08/2017 by Paul Strauss

For many of us, summer means heat and sweat. And there’s no better way to cool off on a hot summer day than a plunge in the pool. But if you’re going to float around in there, you might as well look like you’re having fun. This mustachioed taco pool float should do the trick just fine.

Measuring in at about 61″ long by 30″ wide, it should keep kids and adults up to 200 pounds afloat without a problem. Though I am concerned about it leaving bits of pico de gallo, tomato, and cheese floating in the water.

You can grab one of these silly taco pool floats over at Amazon for about $30. Your stomach will be so much happier with this than that double chalupa you were thinking of eating from Taco Bell.

InflataBull Bull-Riding Pool Float: Ride or Drown!

Posted on 10/04/2017 by Conner Flynn

This isn’t my first rodeo, but this is the first time I’ve seen anyone bring the rodeo to the pool. For just fifty bucks, you can get the InflataBull, a pool float based on a mechanical bull. But instead of a machine, your friends do all of the hard work by yanking the handles attached to the outer ring, and try to knock you off.

Can you last 8 seconds? I bet you can. This won’t be as extreme as a real mechanical bull. Now sharks, on the other hand – that’s my kind of water rodeo. Not this bunch of bull.

Make sure that you check out the video below, where everyone is having way too much fun and a kid throws himself off because there was no way his friends were going to knock him off.

Bug Out with This Giant Inflatable Cockroach Pool Float

Posted on 31/08/2016 by Conner Flynn

If you’re a sexy woman who enjoys lazing around in the pool, you want this giant inflatable cockroach. According to the images here, the ladies love to lounge around on a giant cockroach. Kids too, but gals in bikinis really seem to love it. Way too much. Cockroach tease.

You might as well embrace it now, because after the apocalypse we’ll all be riding cockroaches like slow jetskis and have cockroach highways. Those of us who survive anyway.

Just remember, you put one of these in the pool and before you know it, you’re infested. Which is fine, if these things really do attract the bikinied ladies. But if not, then you just have a pool full of cockroaches. If you want to chance it, you can get one from Amazon.

Star Trek Captain’s Chair Pool Float Begs for a Pool Party… Make it So

Posted on 19/02/2015 by Shane McGlaun

Summer will be here before you know it and you will be ready to head to the pool, lake, beach, or river to cool off. That means you will need a pool float so you don’t have to put any more effort than needed to float around staring at girls in bikinis.

A few years back I mentioned an inflatable captain’s chair from Star Trek and it was cool. I figured it could float in your pool, but that wasn’t what it was meant for. Now, we have a captain’s chair pool float that is specifically made for playing in the water.

It has that butt cut out pool floats get that I always assumed to be designed to make it easier to pee in the water. The float won’t be cheap at about $50(USD), but if you are a geek you are probably used to paying way more than stuff is worth because it has your favorite franchise’s name on it.
