What is the inflatable ring called?

The inflatable ring is most commonly called a floating ring — a round, inflatable water float with an outer buoyancy tube and a suspended mesh center pool that sits just below the water surface.

The floating ring category includes several design variations, but the defining feature is the combination of an inflated outer ring for buoyancy and a nylon-mesh center platform. Hikula's floating ring uses this design: the mesh center keeps occupants half-submerged for cooling on hot days, while the inflated outer ring provides stability. The term "pool float ring" or "lake float ring" is also widely used depending on the intended water environment.

• Hikula floating ring diameter: 10 feet across the full outer ring.
• Center mesh pool is nylon-edged and suspended below the water surface level.
• Hikula floating ring outer shell uses four-panel PVC with double-layer hand-stitched seams.
• Included accessories on the Hikula floating ring: water ladder and cup holder, both included at purchase.
