The FloatingBob, created by Austria-based entrepreneur Dieter Mayrhofer, allows pool-goers to easily enjoy the pool with their beverages. The floatation device uses suction technology to hold flat-bottomed drinks in cups or cans of various sizes without fear of tipping and is made from high-quality aluminium and stainless steel.
The buoyant device is approximately 6 inches and floats atop the water to make relaxing in the pool a breeze. The beverage can be easily taken out of the water for a sip with the small device still attached. The FloatingBob can also be used for pool games like beer pong where players try to throw a ping pong ball into red solo cups. The products are color-coated in red, blue, black, and silver so consumers can differentiate which drink is theirs.
