The Fat Boys Blob® is the perfect toy to keep you entertained all summer long. Whether you own a summer camp, do crazy stunts like Nitro Circus, or just looking for something fun to do on your next adventure, this water launch pad will keep you entertained for hours!
Every square inch of the Fat Boys' Blob™ was engineered to deliver quality and maximize performance. The shape creates a better energy transfer from the jumper to the person getting launched into the water. The inflatable buoys on the sides increase stability and reduce setup time to as little as 40 minutes.
The pod where the launcher sits catapults smoother and more predictable than any inflatable water launch pad on the market. With performance and quality unparalleled in our industry, it is no wonder that two world records have already been set with the Fat Boys' Blob™.
The Fat Boy is engineered for maximum launch height from a cliff, platform, or a 2 story houseboat. Setup with minimal equipment and in under 45 minutes.
Our performance-focused Fat Boys Blob design will launch you higher and farther on the water than ANY other inflatable launch pad. The reason the Fat Boy has been featured on practically every major news station and tours with Nitro Circus is because we are the best at performance water launch pads.
What's included:
☑ Fat Boys Blob
☑ Carrying Case
☑ Repair Kit
What's not included:
☑ Rope
☑ Anchors
☑ Inflation Device (Use a Shop Vac or Leaf Blower)
CHOOSE FROM THREE SIZES:
☑ Ex-Large Fat Boy:
Purchase an extra large Fat Boys Blob if you’re looking to go really high, you have a tall jumping platform (18-24ft), and you’re okay with the product staying in one place. The Ex-Large is heavier so it’s less mobile than the Regular.
☑ Regular Fat Boys Blob:
Purchase the regular Fat Boys Blob if your launch platform is around 15 feet, you need the Fat Boy to be mobile for use with Yachts/Houseboats or day use, or your daily users are younger and you want a safer product. The regular Fat Boy still can get a great launch of 35 feet. Weight dropping onto the water launcher is what creates height. The difference is the regular is not as wide so fewer people can jump onto it at once.
THE SHAPE
The Fat Boy's peanut shape maximizes launch height and creates a smoother, more predictable launch.
After studying countless videos of launches, Fat Boys took to the physics books to discover what principles make a successful launch. Before setting the world record ourselves in 2012 for the highest water launch, we found a prior world record video, measured the shape of the inflatable water launch pad and used calculus and physics principles to re-engineer a shape that had the same volume as the winning launch pad, but with a unique patent-pending formula that works even better.
The peanut shape can be broken into two sections - one constricting the air wave and one releasing it. As the force of air is pushed into the constricted section, the speed increases (Boyle's Law), maximizing the energy transfer... Then, in one split second, the energy is transferred into the pod-shaped section creating an optimal launch that sends the person flying into the air! While the exact dimensions of our design are highly classified, please note that the shape is about 33ft long and 10ft wide and tall. The result is nothing short of a spectacular water launch.
THE POD DESIGN
The Fat Boy's Pod design significantly reduces the chance of whiplash.
A lot of time was spent developing the pod where the Fat Boys Blob sits. The secret to a smooth and good launch is how deep the launcher sits into the pod. We wanted to engineer a design that safely and smoothly launched the person without the risk of the launcher coming back to hit the Fat Boys Blob®, all while increasing the performance past any inflatable blob that was ever created.
The deeper the launcher sits, the longer he's connected to the Fat Boys Blob during launch and the better and more predictable his launch becomes. The Fat Boy has the deepest pod of any inflatable launcher on the market, 3x deeper than any competitor. The result is that the launcher stays connected to the Fat Boy for longer as he is launched into the air, significantly reducing whiplash and creating a smooth, more predictable trajectory for the launcher.
THE QUALITY
Ever owned a launch pad that broke after 3 months? We guarantee that you will not have this problem with a Fat Boys Blob™. Owners of the Fat Boy put it through rigorous use and they need a product that is going to last for years. We use the highest quality materials and build our product at a state-of-the-art facility. Our production process requires the same rigorous testing and quality control that is seen in white water raft designs. If you need a launch pad for commercial use, beware of Chinese products. They do not work well and break quickly. Intelligent buyers select the Fat Boys Blob™ because of how long it lasts and the quality of the launch experience.
