Hello. The pool I've been swimming at for the past 8 or so years has always had these amazing solid white pull buoys that I always used. Gradually, these have been disappearing and now the last one of these is gone.
The pull buoy i am looking for is pictured here: swimming.about.com/.../pullbuoys.jpg.
It is the white one on the bottom. I have not seen one of these at any online swimming store, I do not know the manufacturer, and this is the only picture of what I am looking for I could find.
Does anyone have any idea where i could find this certain type of pull buoy or does anyone have one (or a few), used or new, that they would be willing to sell? Thank you.
:bump: BUMP!
I contacted the company and they said that they had to discontinue making the buoys because the raw material used in the product had been discontinued (perhaps for the reasons Jim mentioned aboved). The representative mentioned that the replacement material offered was not of the quality or finish needed for exposure to skin.
So if you have one, hang onto it. I've been using the Tyr Jr. Float Pull Buoy, which I also like.
