Actually, Obito is affected by gravity even when he isn't materialized. That was the entire basis of Konan's trap. Even as he was phasing through the paper bombs he was still falling, he needed to teleport in order to escape , and when Konan prevented that , he needed izanagi. This is one of the quirky / seemingly inconsistent parts about kamui. I mean, when he phases out, light still reflects off his body even though he is immaterial. And it seems gravity affects him. Which now means actually he can be affected by almighty pull and almighty push and chibaku tensei. He will need to teleport to escape those.
