The present invention relates generally to the field of amusement devices. More specifically, the present invention relates to a floating water game device that is comprised of at least one net assembly, at least one primary anchoring pole, at least two secondary anchors, a ball, and at least one glove. The frame members of the device form a generally rectangular shape and are hollow such that the net assembly can float on water. The device is also comprised of anchors capable of retaining the net assembly in a position specified by the user against the forces of a body of water. In this manner, the device can be used in any body of water such that any number of people can enjoy the outdoors with family and friends.

Embodiments herein are directed to an aquatic exercising assembly. The aquatic exercising assembly includes a container having a liquid retention portion. The liquid retention portion includes a bottom wall, a pair of opposing sidewalls, and a pair of opposing end walls, a pedal assembly and a paddle assembly. The pedal assembly is rotatably coupled to the one of the pair of opposing end walls. The paddle assembly is coupled to each one of the pair of opposing sidewalls. The paddle assembly is movable between a rearward position and a forward position in a longitudinal direction. The pedal assembly is rotatably moved by a lower body movement of a user and the paddle assembly is moved by an upper body movement of the user.

A system and method for providing an exercise bar for a user to use for rowing or other exercises in the water of the spa or adjacent to the spa. The exercise bar may comprise a central hub, and two sides, each with a first inner tube attached to opposing side of the central hub and a an outer tube in telescoping connection with the inner tube, and a handgrip in connection with the first outer tube. A connector may be mounted to the central hub, the connector to enable the exercise bar to be connected to one or more resistance cables. The exercise bar may be adjustable from a first, shorter length for use with exercises in which a user's hands are positioned closer together and a second, longer length for use with exercises in which a user's hands are positioned father apart.

A starting block (1) including a supporting ledge device (10) for a start of a backstroke race. The supporting ledge device is at least partially integrated into the starting block. The supporting ledge device includes a support ledge (13) on which at least one foot of a swimmer can be supported before the start of a backstroke race. The support ledge is held from within a base (9) or a base plate of the starting block by fastening elements (11). Two flexible fastening elements in the form of straps are respectively connected to the two ends of the support ledge and to return means within the starting block at ends opposite the fixation to the support ledge.

A water skills training device to facilitate water skills training for infants under the supervision of caretakers in shallow water environments is disclosed. The device includes a base to be placed in a shallow water environment, a receptacle placed onto the base and configured to receive and support an infant, and a floatation cushion removably engaged to the base and configured to support an infant's head or upper torso during water skills training. The floatation cushion can be easily removed or added as desired.

The facility includes an artificial wave generator having a water driving member movable along a predetermined path, including a body delimiting a water flow chamber open by an inlet opening located at the front and facing forward and by an outlet opening located rearward of the inlet opening and facing the wave progression zone, the body including peripheral walls which entirely close the chamber from the inlet opening to the outlet opening except optionally at the side that faces upward.

A water game apparatus having a buoyant seat platform with seats on opposing ends and handles on opposing sides to enables game participants to sit on the two opposing seats while other game participants jostle and rock the seat platform by holding onto and moving the handles. The game players try to maintain their balance and remain on the buoyant seat platform while being bucked and jostled. The last game player to remain on the buoyant seat platform is the winner. The seats may be concave depressions in the buoyant seat platform to provide some support of the game players and to prevent them from simply siding off the platform. The handles may be embedded in the seat platform of configured in a channel formed by a seat portion and water portion of an assembly. The water contact surface may be convex in shape from side to side.

The invention presented is an aquatic weight training device that enables weight training in an aquatic environment while allowing eccentric weight training. The inventive device includes at least one hollow bar with hollow weights attached at each end. The end weights each include a plurality of holes that allow a user to fill the end weights under water then controllably empty the end weights while exercising. The end weights may be fixedly or releasably attached to the bar.

A method and apparatus facilitating a portable game including a housing for receiving all parts of the game which housing and parts can be expeditiously assembled to form goals for playing a game on land or in the water. The housing comprises a cylinder, such as a bucket, cut in half vertically, being separable and re-connectable. Each half of the housing can include a hole to be used as a scoring goal. A modular extension pole supports each half of the housing. The game is preferably played with a ball and a first and second scoring goals. The method facilitates playing in water, grass/dirt/ground, and as a team sport.
