OUR PRODUCT

Chabu® – The Original Channel Ball

Designed by Tracy Byrd, Chabu® – The Original Channel Ball was created to redefine how a ball can be used in training and rehabilitation. Designed for trainers, therapists, and exercise enthusiasts, the Channel Ball opens the door to a new category of movement-based exercise. At the core of its innovation, it has an open center channel, allowing users to integrate tubing resistance directly through the ball. This design enables dynamic, multi-planar movement patterns that combine balance, strength, coordination, and control—something traditional exercise balls simply can’t offer.
