The Orbiter is a truly versatile training tool for the gym. It offers a safe option for independent practice of skills and also saves coaches' from constant spotting!

- When using the Air Barrel by itself, the additional Cradles are helpful to stabilise the Air Barrel from rolling when using for certain skills.
- Add two Booster Blocks and the Orbiter becomes great for all ages
On it's own, the Orbiter is appropriate for taller athletes (approximately 1.5m or taller). However, if you add two Booster Blocks which go on the floor underneath the unit, younger athletes can easily use the Orbiter for back handsprings, front handsprings, round-off, back tucks and much more.
When the foam Orbiter Rings are taken off, it becomes a recreational or preschool coaches dream. Between the Air Barrel and foam rings, a coach can have endless options and easily three or more stations for their athletes.
If you already own 60cm Air Barrel, you can purchase the Orbiter Rings and the Air Barrel Cradles separately. Be sure you select the Cradles for a 60cm Air Barrel.
