Several exist here in Missoula, Montana, and work well. We've been an advocate for manual pumps instead of the ones run by an air compressor (noise, fuel, space, etc).
But- many of the initial manual (floor) pumps broke.
Now, they are made much stronger and worth the investment I think. Like this one:

A challenge but doable to make your own.
