Berkeley, Calif. – April 3, 2025 – Helinox (helinox.com), the original designer of premium lightweight furniture and accessories for the outdoors, today introduces Play, a new collection of packable outdoor games featuring the craftsmanship, portability, and durability of Helinox products.
Fun and easy to play, the new collection of lightweight, packable games builds on the brand’s core mission of bringing people together to enjoy the outdoors and offering premium products that reflect Helinox’s history of innovative design and engineering.
The Helinox Play collection launches with four games: YutNori, a traditional Korean table game; StringTrees, the backcountry version of shuffleboard; HeliDrop, a game of throwing accuracy and skill; and HeliDisc, where well-aimed throws knock the opponent’s target off the tower. Each Helinox Play game packs into a carry bag, is crafted with bluesign-certified fabrics and premium alloy, and comes with Helinox’s standard 5-year warranty.
“What is more fun than playing games outside with friends and family? Play makes it easy to bring games along with you, anywhere,” said Courtney Matthews, Vice President, Helinox USA. “The new 2025 games were meticulously designed by the Helinox team and crafted for durability with recycled bluesign-certified materials and colorful alloy complements. The new category furthers our goal of bringing people together to enjoy the outdoors and creating new ways for people to connect, and we’re excited to have the new games out in the wild for everyone to enjoy.”
The 2025 Helinox Play Collection
YutNori
Roll the dice, knock out the other team, and race home first to win. YutNori is a traditional Korean board game of strategy, perfect for sparking fun rivalries with family and friends. Fully self-contained with a zipper pouch for the pieces, YutNori weighs just 3.5 oz packed and is perfect for playing on the Helinox Table One Hard Top, Table Four, or Café Table.
StringTrees
Set it up between two trees or poles and play this backcountry twist on shuffleboard where finesse, accuracy, and outdoor fun come together. Fling your rings down the rope toward three scoring zones—or push your competition’s rings off to take the lead. Weighs 8.5 oz packed.
HeliDrop
Test your throwing skills and hold your nerve in this head-to-head game of accuracy. Score points by landing bean bags in one of three nets—the smaller the net, the bigger the payoff. First to 21 wins. Packed weight is 1 lb 8.5 oz. Make HeliDrop even lighter for backcountry fun by leaving the frame behind and emptying the bean bags. Take only the landing pad, bean bag cases, DAC stakes, and included tree strap with you. This reduces the total weight to 9.2 oz packed.
HeliDisc
Weighing 4 lbs packed, HeliDisc is all about quick moves and nonstop fun. Take aim and knock down your rival’s target with nothing but a flying disc. Then, see if they can catch the target before it hits the ground. Just as fun to watch as it is to play, HeliDisc delivers hours of entertainment.
Also available: the lightweight ScoreKeeper to track the score and extra Flying Discs for standalone play or with your HeliDisc game. Explore Play and Helinox’s other new releases for 2025 at https://helinox.com/collections/play.
