Springfield Special Products (aka "the Blob People") has been the leader in waterfront inflatables for over 20 years. All our recreational products are made right here in Springfield, Missouri.

Blobbing was actually invented by Tex Robertson of Camp Longhorn in Burnet, Texas. In the beginning,  they were using an Army Surplus fuel bladder as a waterfront toy. Spike White of Kanakuk Kamps in Branson Missouri brought the idea to us and we took that idea and designed  a two-ply waterfront inflatable that is now known as the famous Blob.
