Airhead ORB Tube Tow Float with 60 ft Rope

Airhead ORB Tube Tow Float with 60 ft Rope

Keep your tow rope above the water and your tube responding instantly with the Airhead ORB — a spherical tow float designed to lift the rope clear of the wake so the tube reacts immediately to every change in the boat’s direction. Unlike a standard tow rope that sags into the water and creates slack, the ORB maintains constant tension in the line, which improves tube control, enhances rider safety, and reduces the wear and stress that slack-induced snapping puts on the tube over time.

The ORB is particularly effective on boats with a low tow point on the transom, where rope sag into the water is most pronounced and most problematic. A 60-foot rope with 4,100 lb tensile strength is included. The ORB itself is built from durable 30-gauge PVC — no nylon cover, straightforward and tough.

Key Features

• Spherical tow float keeps rope elevated above the water and wake
• Eliminates slack in the tow line for instant tube response
• Especially effective for boats with low tow points on the transom
• Enhances rider safety and extends tube life by reducing snap and shock loads
• 60 ft tow rope with 4,100 lb tensile strength included
• Durable 30-gauge PVC construction

Compatible Applications

• Any towable tube — 1 to 4+ person inflatables
• Boats with low tow points on the transom where rope sag is a problem
• Any boat with a standard tow point or tow bar
• Pairs with Airhead towable tubes including the Airhead Big Mable (1–2 Riders), Airhead Great Big Mable (1–4 Riders), and Airhead Super Mable (1–3 Riders)
• Compare with the WOW 4K Tow Bobber and WOW 4K Tow Boss for alternative tow float systems

Parts Desk Insights

Best Use Case: The ORB is the go-to recommendation for any customer whose boat has a low transom tow point — this is where rope sag into the water is most severe and where the ORB makes the biggest difference in tube performance and safety. It’s also a strong add-on sell alongside any towable tube purchase for customers who want to eliminate slack and improve tube responsiveness. The 4,100 lb tensile strength rope is a meaningful spec for customers towing heavier multi-rider tubes. Compare it against the WOW 4K Tow Bobber for customers who want an adjustable segmented rope, or the WOW 4K Tow Boss for customers who want more shock absorption with a larger bladder.
