AQUATIC GAME APPARATUS AND METHOD
An aquatic game apparatus and method. The apparatus comprises a water skipping article, comprising a high-density foam material, a top surface having a rounded side profile, a rounded outer perimeter, and a bottom surface. The top surface of the water skipping article comprises a first elliptically extended face, a second elliptically extended face, and a continuous smooth-edged outer perimeter. The apparatus comprises a target, comprising a pop-up board and at least one of a plurality of fillable weight bags coupled to the pop-up board by at least one of a plurality of straps, wherein the fillable bags are configured to stabilize the target on a water surface. The pop-up board of the target comprises an upper surface having a plurality of pocketed nets, and a lower surface having a plurality of integrally formed flotation units, wherein the upper surface is elevated above the lower surface by a support pole.
FLOATING GOLF TARGET
A golf target for use on a body of water having a water surface is described. The golf target comprises a first float having a first diameter and a second float having a second diameter smaller than the first diameter. The golf target also comprises a mesh having an outer perimeter, a mesh center, and a middle portion extending between the outer perimeter and the mesh center. The outer perimeter of the mesh is affixed to the first float, and the mesh center is affixed to the second float. At least a part of the middle portion is arranged to submerge under the water surface when the golf target is floated on the body of water.
Floating Water Game Device
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.
Water game apparatus
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.
AQUATIC GAME DEVICE
The invention relates to an aquatic game device comprising a structure having two ends which are each fitted with a base module, said structure being sufficiently deformable so as to allow the relative movement of said modules, the density of the modules being designed to allow the immersion of said device in water with the modules arranged such that they stand on a subaquatic surface, and the density of the structure being designed so as to be able to suspend said structure in the water according to at least one game configuration.
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PORTABLE BALL GAME
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.
FLOATING THROWABLE IMPLEMENT GAME APPARATUS AND RELATED DEVICES
An apparatus is used with throwable implements. The apparatus includes a base having a central portion and a peripheral edge. A first container is positioned on the central portion of the base. A plurality of second containers is positioned along the peripheral edge of the base and radially about the first container, wherein the plurality of second containers are smaller than the first container, and wherein an upper rim edge of the first container is positioned higher than upper rim edges of the plurality of second containers. The apparatus may be floatable and used primarily in water-based settings.
DEVICE, SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR USE WITH A BALL GAME
A ball game device and system includes a ball-rebounding body having a frame within which a resilient surface is suspended. The frame is configured to be immovable for optimizing ball rebound. In this way, the body can be used on virtually any surface and the game played in virtually any environment. Preferably, the frame would have a base and a rebound surface-supporting structure. The resilient rebound surface is continuous and is configured to be variably tilted. The resilient surface is conical such that ball rebound and trajectory is rendered unpredictable, or predictable depending on where the ball strikes the resilient surface and/or a centrally disposed positioned within the rebound surface. In the preferred embodiment, defense boundaries offensive lines and other features are included to provide a wide variety of game formats. Notably the centrally disposed surface provides a spot that the thrower can aim at to maximize ball rebound.
Pattern-making and construction kit
A construction kit of modular components including rigid and flexible foam bars with endcaps designed to be joined together by snap-fit connections to define three-dimensional, adult-sized playing fields which float in aquatic settings such as swimming pools. The connectivity of the modular components is characterized by manual assembly, a high resistance to separation during active play by teams of adults participating in vigorous athletic activities, and tool-assisted disassembly.
