Sometimes ball tips like yard has a rough cut meaning there is a sharp plastic edge on the ball that prevents it from fully free spinning. That's how my orbit and yard was. Just keep playing with it and it will wear down eventually.

Also ball tips aren't always aggressive. Sometimes its the way you launch it that affects the way it moves so it could just be you

I do hope so, but it seems to have a slightly hollowed part, like a cut from manufacturing/production process, along the lines or seams at the sides of products or toys that we usually see, is it really like that or it shouldn't be, I just took some photos, I could post them here if you need to see it.

If you could post the photos that would great

Inspect the driver, you can see the slightly hollowed part, like it is from a manufacturing/production proces where it closes the seams of the plastic, instead of an extra cut on which there is a small excess plastic, it is left with a slighly, narrow, concave graze. https://imgur.com/a/ljlEJ9w

Yes I see it now. Still that shouldn't have too much of an effect on the performance of the driver. I think you should just wait and see if it's still not working for you.

Any solutions to make it more free spinning?

I don't think it affects THAT MUCH , but it matters if you take part in tournaments ( or championship )

Is it the cause on why it doesn't roam around the stadium and only stays in the center?

My atomic driver circles on a hard launch before settling in the center while my orbit driver stays near the center.

It seems smaller the ball the less movement it has.

Not always , Orbit also had the potential to circle around the tornado ridge ( evem more than what Atomic did ) , ( BUT , this is all related to the LAUNCH METHOD you are using )

The movement I was talking about was on a powerful flat launch.

Then you have a very stable launch. However, what he/she (@[GOD CHIPS]) is talking about is when you retract or kind of pull back your launcher while launching. This grips the three 'spikes' located on the outer areas of the driver and those will grip the ridge to create momentum. Atomic also has such trajectory due to a similar reason. However, At has a free spinning ring...

IT is actually HE

Whether you push it or not banking will make the yard user stay in center. So if you want agressive pattern launch straight. And hard.

I tried launching it straight, leveled and hard, it does spins a little around the center for a few seconds, then it gets right back in the center, I keep seeing videos of Yard circling around the stadium, spinning around the edges of the stadium a little longer until it settles to the center, that's what made me wonder why my driver only stays in the middle or acts this way.

That will be illegal. Use it, it will wearw out

I never planned to use it in official tournaments, I just want to see if I could make it more free spinnig. Will it destroy the driver instead?
