Abstract: A method of making a cup that decreases the amount of flash on a bottom surface of the cup is provided. More specifically, a cup is provided that includes a thickened lip around an open surface. The lip also includes a recess for the receipt of excess material generated by the molding process. This excess material, or flashing, is detrimental to the use of cups in cup stacking competitions.

Abstract: The present invention discloses an improved holding device which allows for retaining, storing and transporting cups used in sport stacking. The invention allows a user to quickly and conveniently store and transport a stack of sport stacking cups using only one hand, by employing a unitary stem incorporating retractable tangs that retain the stack of cups. The tangs may be withdrawn via a spring-loaded plunger, activated by the user's thumb. The invention also includes the use of a shield mechanism, as well as various cup transporting mechanisms.
