PUMA ORBITA LaLiga 2022/23 Match Ball Overview

The official match ball for the 2022/23 LaLiga Santander season features a striking kaleidoscope-inspired design with fuchsia, blue, and yellow accents on a white base, ensuring high visibility on the pitch. The PUMA ORBITA LaLiga combines visual appeal with advanced construction technologies aimed at improving flight, touch, and durability.

Design and Visuals

The ball’s decorative pattern is inspired by the hypnotic effect of a kaleidoscope. The vibrant fuchsia, blue, and yellow colors are integrated into the white base to enhance ball visibility during play.

Panel Configuration and Flight

The PUMA ORBITA LaLiga uses a unique configuration of 12 large star-shaped panels. This design reduces the number of seams, which contributes to a more stable and predictable flight path.

Technology and Materials

Optimal Sphere Shape

State‑of‑the‑art manufacturing ensures the ball maintains its optimal spherical shape while resisting water absorption.

Touch Sensitivity and Bounce

A POE (Polyolefin Elastomer) foam layer is added to increase touch sensitivity. This results in a firmer feel and more consistent bounce.

Surface and Aerodynamics

The 1.2 mm textured 3D PU surface improves aerodynamics while providing greater resistance to abrasion and wear for increased durability.

Air Retention

A rubber bladder combined with a PUMA Air Lock (PAL) valve delivers optimal air retention and rebound properties.
