The O'Brien Heli 3 towable deck boating tube is the ultimate high-performance deck tube for groups, specifically engineered to minimise drag and maximise speed. By using specialised Speed Risers, the tube’s surface is slightly elevated above the water. This innovative design significantly reduces friction, allowing for faster acceleration and easier towing, even when the boat is fully loaded with 3 people.
Comes with a Boatworld Tube Bag, saving you £26.95, which offers durable protection and space for all your kit, making transport and storage a breeze.
To handle the extra weight and speed, the Heli 3 is built with a rugged multi-gauge (28/26/24) bladder system and is protected by a premium 840/420D nylon shell. For rider comfort during aggressive wake crossings, the deck features large EVA pads that act as shock absorbers while preventing skin abrasion. With eight soft ultra-grip handles and integrated knuckle guards, every passenger has a secure, ergonomic hold for a confident ride through every twist and turn.
