Island Boarding Buddy | Boarding Platform for Adults & Dogs | 2n1 Lounge

The Island Hopper Boarding Buddy is the only inflatable floating dock in the lineup that works two ways. One side is a 3-step boarding platform with two support handles, the safest way to enter and exit the water from a trampoline, pontoon boat, or lake dock. Flip it over and it becomes a bucket net lounge seat with adjustable straps. Same commercial-grade drop-stitch PVC construction as the full-size Island Buddy and Patio Dock platforms. At 23 lbs, it's the most portable inflatable dock Island Hopper makes.

Inflatable Dock That Boards and Lounges: 2-in-1 Design:

The Boarding Buddy's defining feature is the flip design. Deploy it steps-up as an inflatable swim platform with three sunken entry steps and two support handles, giving users up to 300 lbs a secure, grip-surface entry point in and out of the water. Flip it lounge-side-up to reveal a comfortable bucket net seat with adjustable straps, turning any inflatable floating dock session into a rest stop on the water. Never a moment on the water when the Boarding Buddy can't come in use.

The Inflatable Lake Dock for Water Trampolines:

The Boarding Buddy solves the problem of boarding a water bouncer or water trampoline for all user sizes. Making it easy for a camp full of kids to easily board from any area on the water trampoline. Stainless steel D-rings and reinforced web-loops allow direct attachment to any Island Hopper water trampoline, while the inflatable dock floats independently for solo boarding. It's a must have for water trampoline owners that are having a hard time using the aluminum ladder. 

Commercial-Grade Drop-Stitch PVC | Heat-Welded Seams:

This is not a cheap foam pool float. The Boarding Buddy is built from commercial-grade drop-stitch PVC with heat-welded seams; the same construction standard used in the Patio Dock and Yacht Dock series. No glued edges or corners that peel and fail after one season. Stainless steel D-rings and reinforced web-loops anchor it securely as a standalone inflatable water dock, tethered to a ski boat, or connected directly to an Island Hopper water trampoline. UV-resistant and puncture-resistant in fresh and salt water.

Lightweight Inflatable Dock for Lake, Pool & Open Water:

At 23 lbs and 60 × 45 in by 6 inches thick, this inflatable dock for lake or pool use deflates to approximately 15 × 15 x 18 in, small enough to transport in the back of a car, pack in a pontoon storage bay, or store on a shelf in the garage. Inflates in minutes with the included double-action hand pump. Works as a standalone inflatable lake dock, a pool entry aid, a pontoon boarding platform, or a permanent water trampoline boarding attachment. One product that handles every water entry situation.
