Looking for user feedback on 14m Pivot. I think I realize it's not a true light wind kite but at 100kg a little extra juice for TT is sometimes needed.
Just want to hear if it keeps some of the great Pivot DNA or not. Yes, I realize it is a big kite and won't fly like a 9m but sometimes a 14m becomes a pig.
Thanks!

Re: naish pivot 14m
I think for a big guy who wants' to ride powered up this is going to be a sick kite for you. In the context of a 14m it's pretty nimble. My friend with similar dimensions to you loves his 14m Pivot. As you note there's better light wind kites for smaller riders, foiling, etc, but for a big guys who rides a 14m when other guys are on 9's, 10's etc this is going to be a great kite for you.

Re: naish pivot 14m
I think it depends to what kind of kite you compare it. When you compare it to delta shaped freeride Kites like XR5 or Rebel they probably have a similar windrange in the same size. When you compare it to C-Shaped Hybrid Kites go a meter down.
