  • Publication number: 20030068939
    Abstract: An adult flotation device is provided that as a life “vest” to prevent drowning. Attached to the upper area of a user's arms in the same location as “swimming wings”, in their normal state, the device is not inflated and as such, it is extremely low-profile. Due to its low profile and lack of bulkiness, the invention is not cumbersome and allows the user to perform tasks such as fishing, rowing, water skiing and the like without hindrances. If the user should accidentally fall into the water and/or is unable to swim, the invention will transform into a flotation device by simply pulling on an inflation cord. With the invention inflated, the invention will lift the user to the surface.
