    Tried an Orbz balloon

    I was out shopping this morning at a local supermarket and the store’s floral area was all decorated for valentines day. They had quite a few mylars of various shapes, some Qualatex bubble balloons and the newer Orbz balloons.

    So I grabbed a transparent Orbz with I love you heart prints on it, bought and took it home.

    I noticed its very beachball like, sorta soft yet still tight. It is softer than a Qualatex bubble.

    Played around with my Orbz...which was a very squeaky session by the way! Didnt pop it though but did do alot of squeezing hugging and gentle riding/humping! Session didnt last very long

    If your into mylars or beachballs you should try them out! It was like having a helium filled 24 inch beachball to play with. Also not sure how the “foil” type feels though. This one is a translucent plastic...very nice! Saved for another session!

    Been interested in these types of balloons for a while, I'll have to try one after reading this. Big fan of helium and mylars so I'm pretty sure I'll enjoy it.

              I would say they feel better than a beach ball. Thinner more balloon like. Stretchier and tend to squeak more when your rough with them

              I wish there was a youtube video or someplace with girls playing with these orbz balloons. So far theres none

                The orbz balloon i bought was an “i love you” valentines print and was clear with pink hearts. Very cute!

                I love the girly looking balloons

                  Helium popped one of these badboys recently. Kaboom.
                  Love the one star review on the amazon page you linked: "This is not a beach ball. This is a balloon."

                    I don't know how those transparent Orbz are, but those fully color and printed I was able to get locally, were harder than a qualatex bubbles. The bubble takes some decent pressure for full inflation, but I find that Orbz balloon requires even higher pressure thatn the qualatex counterpart. But those Orbz aren't as reliable and the material is not as "springy", so the qualatex bubble remains higher pressure and the Orbz will become softer over time.

                          The one I have is a transparent one with “I love you” print. It has helium but I have been adding a little air from my compressor to keep it fully inflated. Still has float in it!

                          The one I have feels like a soft beach ball more than a mylar balloon. They are very squeaky to ride!

                            I have just measured the pressure to fully inflate a 20" clear deco bubble. It was a few times inflated one, not the freshest one, but was stored properly with the humidifier. It was right at 1.24 PSI. I need to get hands on some Orbz to measure that one too.
