Damian Renzello has been searching for smooth ice for years. Now he has created the ultimate outdoor backyard dream machine for ice lovers - the backyard Zamboni.
Renzello, who invented the Porta-Rinx, a backyard portable ice skating rink kit, and the Bambini, a pull-behind ice resurfacing unit, now has the solution for sale.
He has mounted a snow blower on the front of a four-wheel all-terrain vehicle, added an ice scraper blade underneath and mounted a water tank connected to pipes and hoses that lays down a film of water to create a glass-like finish to outdoor ice.
Called the Bambini Revolution, the machine will sell for about $30,000 to outdoor ice skating enthusiasts.
Perfect for those parents who want their kids to grow up to be Sabres!
When we were kids, hockey was the big sport of the neighborhood and some of them even made it to semi-pros and pros. One played for team in Switzerland (his family came from there I believe so he had right to work there).
