Vinyl Coated Foam Pool Float Tips

By Jennie Sandoval


Many people who love to swim have discovered the vinyl coated foam pool float. It is simply the best way to enjoy your pool. Since that this swimming pool accessory is about seventy-inches long, it is ideal for use by anyone, including children and adults.

As the name of the equipment or product suggests, it is constructed of dense but lightweight foam. The material used for construction is then covered with durable, brightly colored vinyl to make it waterproof and long lasting. With its core, this pad is literally unsinkable.

In addition, the foam used is of a closed cell formation, which means that it will never soak up the water, causing it to sink. The equipment is a wonderful accessory for those who cannot swim, as it is very sturdy. It is also ideal for any weight, and therefore can easily be used by a large adult. No matter what, the foam of the equipment ensures its buoyancy.

Inflatable accessories are quite common these days, but they have a tendency to get punctures, and are not always easy to fix. However, even if you accidentally damage this equipment, it will make no difference to its effectiveness. As an added advantage, the vinyl can be cleaned quickly and easily, and is soft to the touch, so there is no worry of getting scratches.

Up until this point, you are probably thinking that this floatation device is huge, and will take up a lot of space to store. However, and this is perhaps the part about it that is most liked by its users, it is capable of rolling up when it is not in use. Floats which cannot be folded or rolled in any way are often left out in the sun, or end up getting damaged in other ways. It is often too much effort to drag them into the garage after each swimming session. The equipment in question, however, is so easy to store, and will probably last longer because it is easier to maintain.

The vinyl coating on this equipment is soft for sitting or lying on. The flexibility the equipment defies cracking with changes in weather. It does not get hot or stick to you while you are floating in the water. The color does not come off on the person floating. Moreover, the non-fading vinyl looks like new for years.

The ultimate use of the equipment is entirely up to the user. It is great for relaxation purposes, as well as for suntanning purposes. Imagine lazing the day away atop a sturdy float, drifting aimlessly as you enjoy a thrilling book.

Those who teach swimming lessons have used the pad very successfully to carry items they will toss into the water to have swimmers dive for them. The swimmers then return the objects to the float. This device serves as a "desk" for the swimming instructor. The vinyl coated foam pool float has also been used as a surface for young swimmers to experience the pool and "dive" from rather than the side of the the area where the still water is located. The equipment is closer to the water's surface making the dive into the water for the small swimmers not nearly as scary. In addition small tots can cling to the sides of the float until they feel confident enough to let go and float on their own in the shallow end of the pool.

Those fun pool noodles are also made of a closed-cell foam (polyethylene) and remain non-absorptive (and fun!) as well.
