For years the foam collars were a fixed face in the largest parade above the rivers. They participated 23 times, so until 2019. “Time of time was the big problem,” says Bas Pronk, the designer of the group. “Children were born, so there was less time. But it keeps itching. The children are now bigger and also participate in the parade.”

Politics with Obama and Putin

The idea was quickly thought of. The group likes to take the politics. For example, they became second in the parade in 2016. A floats with the then American President Obama and Russian President Putin. With the slogan: “While Obama relaxes, Putin grabs land for land!”.
