Blimps work much better than round balls or other shapes in the wind. The wind is the enemy of any balloon. The more wind and the more turbulent the wind is, the more it pushes the blimp or balloon over to the side. The big advantage of the blimp shape is that it has tail fins that cause it to act like a weathervain, keeping the nose always pointed into the wind. This way the wind has a minimum effect on it.

Most people don't realize how easy blimps are to use. Our 10 ft, 13 ft, 15 ft ,18ft and 21ft blimps come with tail fins and their guy lines attached and ready to inflate. You take them out of their box, fill them with helium, attach them to an anchor point and let them go up the full length of their tether lines. There is no mystery about flying an advertising blimp. Instructions come with each size blimp, explaining how much helium is needed, where to get it, what to do about everything.
