Thanks to all for putting their thought on the pivot out there, or is it in here?

Been on Best for some years after being with Naish in days when my beard wasnt grey :o
Now looking at the pivot , I am much more wave orientated , strapless / unhooked depending on conditions.
Not many reviews on the handling unhooked, I know it wasnt designed for it but has anyone done some unhooked tricks with the pivot, not talking about those of you whose knees are still rubber pulling kgb's but more the odd fwd roll going blind surface pass kinda stuff.

Just trying to get a idea how good/bad the unhooked characteristics are.
First prize would have been to demo but dont thing I will get the opportunity so input appreciated,cheers

naish pivot = blade trigger

pr i i i t ty similar.

just thought i'd throw that out there considering the massive amount of posting revolving around this topic. they are the same shape, same family of kite, and i bet we will see another one or two of this design emerge from the other brands. its a really good all around kite, feels great.


im not a huge fan of the park, I would take a pivot over a park any day. (or a trigger over either)

...and so many postings about Pivot made you feel obliged to point this out?

Yah. I disagree that the trigger compares to it.

That's coming from a Blade dealer. Spam

Rode the 14M, 12M, and 10M Pivot over the past month and all I can say is I love this kite. I am looking at a new quiver and right now the Pivot is the winner. The 14M Pivot turns ridiculously fast for a large kite.

Hi,
I ordered 2 new pivots for waveriding and I´m pretty excited :)

I have an urgent question: Do I need a pump adapter for the new high flow valve or does a normal kite pump work??? I don´t find any pictures of the inflating process...

No need. The fat adapter that comes standard works fine.

Which did you order?

Thank´s taut! I thought, it is similar to cabrinha´s system...

Is there any benefit from buying a new pump?

I ordered 5m and 6m pivots for waveriding and 8, 10, 12m parks :) and 20m Fusion bar...

5m & 6m because I share it with my wife...
