Hello,
I would get a Pivot if I had to go down to 6m (I guess).
Dash is quite c-ish and may feel very twitchy in that size and presumably the gusty conditions in case you need it for TT riding.
Same as you, friend of mine who instantly was hooked after he tried my Dash, recently called me to discuss what to get for a 6m. as there was no Dash in that size left on stock. I've never tried 6m Pivot but thought that could be better for really strong conditions (and easy to sell in case he doesn't like it
), and indeed he is very happy now.
Shorter bar is a must for both though...

hello, the problem is not in the speed of the kite, but in the control.
This Sunday comes again very strong wind, I will try to change the trimaje, and I will also try the Pivot 6 meters, have at least climb higher with the kiteloops.
sorry if it's badly translated, I do not know how to write English

Hello again. Tested the pivot of 6m three days, I can say that I have already found my kite of 6, in addition my provider behaved really well and I changed it for my dash of 6 without asking anything in return, so it is already mine. Besides that it is much more docile in handling, it has a really spectacular pop, it goes up and up and does not stop going up, and it has a really fast loop to be a delta, and with a great hang time.
From now on I will see them with the pivot 6 in circumstances of greater wind.
Greetings to all
