Awesome video! I've just tested a 2020 Pivot in 12m and found it absolutely stunning but the outer wingtips were fluttering during loops. Does the 2019 Pivot do the same? In the "Welcome Ross to Naish"-Video you can see the fluttering at two occasions. Would love to buy a Pivot but maybe the Orbit is the better one for my 100kg? Thanks in advance, keep looping! :)

Raaz Pa. I havent noticed the pivot fluttering like that, but if youre looking for a stable kite, go for the orbit! And for your weight the orbit is fast for its size

Hey Raaz. I am sort of built the same as you and wondering what to go with betwen the Naish Pivot and the North Orbit. Question for you: have tested the 14m?

@@capitainedeplaisance2477 I went for a 2019 12m pivot in the end. Got a very good offer. No fluttering in 2019! Anyway I'd take the orbit if you like to go out overpowered. The pivot is stable enough due to the 10 psi but it becomes quite heavy on the bar when being at the limit and the conopy could use 2 more struts to be honest for 90kg+. I think the orbit would've been better for me but not almost double the prize better. 14m pivot is slower, more grunt but I couldn't really get more upwind with it or jump heigher. I think for bigger than 12m pivot, something like a 15m ozone edge is the kite to go!

Raaz Pa. thanks! I also think it depends on the average winds in your area. Where I live, it’s not that high so when the average kiter is in 12, I go to 14...

@@capitainedeplaisance2477 Absolutely. I'm located in northern Germany, plenty of good wind. I mostly grab the 12m pivot when most are riding 9's. I also frequently use my 17m Zephyr V5. Great kite with a lot of high end with 5 struts! Anyway, 14m Pivot isn't fun sadly... You don't gain anything from it against a 12m apart from getting dragged downwind.

Great video! How would you compare the two kites in terms of bar pressure, boost and looping?

Jean-Baptiste Marre The orbit had a bit lighter bar pressure and boost a bit more, gives more hangtime and is a more stable kite and the pivot loops fast and easy, is easy to feel the power when sheeting in.

Which of these two kites would you recommend for learning loops?
