The Orbital turns on command, rides long turnover lines, and barely fades — a hyzer-flip distance machine and roller specialist with GYRO® overmold stability. Why Throw the Orbital? 🛸 Flippiest 11-Speed in GYRO At -4.5 turn, the Orbital is the most understable driver in MVP's distance class. It flips from hyzer with less power than the Wave or Vanish, giving developing arms access to real 11-speed distance. 🔄 Hyzer-Flip Distance Machine Start on slight hyzer and the Orbital pops to flat on its own, then rides straight with long, gliding carry. Even 275-foot arms get full-flight distance lines that look like a seasoned pro threw them. ➡️ Committed Turnovers Need the disc to pan right for 350+ feet without fighting back? The Orbital holds turnover angles beautifully. Release flat or on anhyzer and it drifts exactly where you aim with a whisper-soft finish. 🏎️ Roller Specialist The extreme turn makes the Orbital one of the easiest distance drivers to put on the ground for controlled rollers. Power players get long, predictable ground play without needing to force an angle. 💎 GYRO® Keeps It Controlled Even at -4.5 turn, the GYRO overmold adds gyroscopic stability that keeps the Orbital from wobbling wildly. It turns smoothly and predictably instead of randomly flipping — controlled chaos, not real chaos. 🌙 Sky Anhyzers and Low Ceilings Power throwers use the Orbital for towering sky turnovers that sweep right and settle, and for finesse shots under low ceilings where a stable disc would fade into trouble. It goes where overstable discs can't. Plastics Popular Neutron Premium • Opaque • Balanced Grip MVP's flagship premium blend with high-contrast opaque colors. Neutron Orbitals fly true to the 11/5/-4.5/1 numbers and offer the stock understable experience with reliable durability. Fission Lightweight • Microbubble Core • Even Flippier MVP's ultralight technology (typically 150–165g) with higher rim density. Fission Orbitals turn even easier and add extra carry — the most accessible version of the mold for slower arm speeds. Eclipse Glow 2.0 Premium • Glow-in-the-Dark • Special Runs MVP's brightest glow plastic with a firm, slightly more stable feel. Eclipse Orbitals bring the flippy flight to night rounds without changing the disc's core personality. Proton Premium • Translucent • Slightly Firmer Stiff, translucent premium with vivid colors. Proton Orbitals tend to hold their stability a touch longer than Neutron, making them a good choice if you want the understable flight to last.

All three are 11-speed drivers in the same rim class. The Wave (11/6/-2/2) is stable-understable with more glide and a stronger finish. The Vanish (11/5/-3/1.5) is understable but more controlled. The Orbital (11/5/-4.5/1) is the flippiest of the three — built for maximum turn, rollers, and hyzer-flip distance at lower power. Think of them as a progression: Wave for workable lines, Vanish for easy flip, Orbital for extreme flip. Do I need a fast arm to throw the Orbital? The opposite — the Orbital is designed for moderate arms to access 11-speed distance. Players throwing 275–325 feet get full-flight hyzer-flips that ride straight and glide long. If you can throw a Sidewinder, you can throw an Orbital. High-power arms will use it for utility shots like rollers and sky anhyzers instead of max distance. How do I stop the Orbital from turning and burning? Release on hyzer, not flat. Keep the nose down. Throw smooth, not hard — more spin with less power produces better results than raw arm speed. If it's still rolling over, try a heavier weight. And if you're a power thrower who needs less turn, move up to the Vanish or Wave. Is the Orbital a good roller disc? One of the best in the GYRO family. The -4.5 turn puts the disc on edge with minimal effort, and the GYRO rim weight keeps the roll smooth and predictable. Release on steep anhyzer with moderate power and the Orbital carves long, controllable ground lines. How does GYRO overmold help an understable disc? The denser outer rim adds gyroscopic stability even at -4.5 turn. That means the Orbital flips smoothly and predictably instead of wobbling or fluttering off line. You get the extreme turn you want, but with a level of control you wouldn't expect from a disc this flippy. Orbital vs. Innova Roadrunner — which is flippier? The Orbital is flippier at higher speed. The Roadrunner (9/5/-4/1) has -4 turn at speed 9, while the Orbital has -4.5 at speed 11. In practice, the Orbital flips earlier at higher velocity and carries farther. The Roadrunner is easier to control at moderate arm speeds and has a more comfortable 1.8 cm rim. Both are excellent turnover discs in different speed slots. Neutron vs. Eclipse — which Orbital plastic should I pick? Neutron is the stock experience — balanced grip, vibrant opaque colors, and the full -4.5 turn flight. Eclipse Glow 2.0 adds night-round visibility with a slightly firmer feel that may tone down the flip just a fraction. Pick Neutron for everyday throwing, Eclipse for glow rounds and a touch more control. document.querySelectorAll('.orbital-faq-q').forEach(function(btn){ btn.addEventListener('click',function(){ var item=btn.parentElement; var isOpen=item.classList.contains('open'); document.querySelectorAll('.orbital-faq-item').forEach(function(i){i.classList.remove('open');}); if(!isOpen){item.classList.add('open');} }); });
