Nice video - my friends who ride for North in Denmark got no issue megalooping their 12m! It would be awesome if you compared all the 5 strut big air kites in a video and gave them scores from 1-10 on turning speed, low end etc 😎

I thought the previous Orbit had front stalling issues. Does it sit further back in the wind window now with more grunt?

That was something they tackled with the more user friendly design this year. - Rygo

@@MACkiteboarding Cheers. So had last year's model both front- and backstalling issues then? Especially latter seems unusual for such an aerodynamic kite. Just hoping they didn't turn it into a slow heavy puller like my Eleveight XS..

@@pr4nk5tr I think it was a light wind stalling issue if I remember correctly. We learned very quickly the kite was built to be rode powered or overpowered so I never tried one in light winds. I'm not 100 % sure what the issue was. I just know it's something they modified for the second gen. For what its worth, I didn't find the orbit to be slow or heavy at all. But I also ride many slow heavy kite so my perspective is likely different. - Rygo

Would this be a good small kite for a beginner? I need something for the high wind days.

This kite would work fine for beginners it relaunches well and can handle a lot of wind. If you are looking for a more all-around kite id look at the reach!

Sorry, but this review is about nothing. No specifics, no comparing with other kites. I assume if you have a Reedin cap, you are not tight to North, so you could freely compare it to XR's, Rebel's, etc.

Sorry dude, I disagree with almost everything that you say about the kite... of course the feeling of a kite is for everyone different but at least get the facts straight. I came from de duotone dice and now ride the 2021 orbit. The orbit so different than what you say here... just a example here: 1 or 2 sizes bigger than you normally ride? The high end from the orbit its definitely amazing but the dice is high end together with the clickbar is way way better. Sorry bra, i’m not hating on you! Just trying to give some feedback to improve on. ✌️

What do you think about low end? Is it that much worse compared to a allrounder kite like reach? Im asking for 11/12m
