ORBIT VS ORBIT PRO - Worth the upgrade?

[@rickydoo9118]

Good job, and thanks for your opinion on the handling and performance, but I'd still like to know the specific overall weight differences. What is the overall weight difference between the pro and standard orbit? And what are the weights of the competition? Specifically the Aluula infused kites.

Great stuff, nice that you guys are looking at gear reviews now

Core XR pro vs Evo D Lab

[@mrmonkeboy]

The local lads moved away from duotone - shit quality. Split bladders, broken lines, broken bars ... the kites were constantly being repaired. They moved to Core XR and are now waiting for the Alula XRs to get in stock.

[@dero0019]

yeah mate 100% agreed... this year is the downfall of duotone@@mrmonkeboy

[@casparguo7300]

The duotone shity line brokes two time with 3 months！

[@nixon_capedr]

you compare aluula kites with dacron kites? is this a fair and right comparison in terms of price and weight? I think the best comparison is to compare the north orbit/orbit pro with duotone sls rebel (both 5 struts). in your price comparison you compare it to duotone d/lab kites? which duotone d/lab kite has 5 struts?

[@dero0019]

duotone has a massive line snapping issue right now with all kites

[@samisubzero]

Exactly what I thought

[@carlmajor4917]

So the Orbit Pro has less bar pressure than the regular Orbit kite ?

[@Leonvanbergen]

Rebel, xr & orbit pleaseee!🚀

[@Luis-ni5zx]

Great video! Stoked to get one

[@barrygolbach9534]

now equal to the cabrinha nitro....which are stacked behind the orbit in the video

[@pschipper5920]

Did you compared the Pro with previous year Orbit? I have the feeling they gave the new standard orbit a different bridle to prevent the buckle in wingtip at take off While the orbit pro is probably likely to buckle again but faster

[@Ohadraviv_]

you can tell its 2024 by the logo :)

[@undertowsurf]

24 orbits new wingtip shaping, pro has nmax and tweaked bridle for turn speed.

[@Stinokiteboarding]

Nitro Aluula

[@dero0019]

stino 💀 real talk, it's time to switch from cabrinha to another brand that isn't duotone cabrinha and duotone gear have gotten progressively worse which is quite serious cabrinha: quick releasing issue duotone: broken bars, lines, exploded bladders, etc. time you find another brand

[@Shahar_tsabry]

Xr pro vs Evo d lab

[@VK-pl1nd]

Rebel, Edge, XR, Orbit

[@Jochumvideos]

Cool video as always

[@maciejtyrcz]

XR Pro

[@carlitokite]

Funny to see the "Harlem Force" as a kite present in the biggest competition. Unknown brand, unknown kite. For now it's just speculation around Lorenzo 🤣

[@theofoulon8707]

Unknow Brand ? Not sure, Harlem is on the market for a while.

[@vikingh3008]

Let’s be honest the podium depends massively on the riders not the kite, it’s not like F1 car racing where basically the best car wins no matter what. And the cheaper prises are because it’s not Aluula, Aluula comes at a premium and once you tried an Aluula kite you know why, people who haven’t tried an Aluula kite will say it’s all sales talk, try one and you will realise it’s not.

Next Level Kite? Sorry, all North Orbit Pro riders out at KOTA in round 3. Next level of no chance kite against Aluula kites from Core, Naish, Cabrinha, Duotone. For sure you need to push the kite as you are sponsered from North. Easy to understand but sorry, the kite is far away from the performance of Aluula and SLS kites and I am sure North will come soon with Aluula kites. So compare apples with apples when you argue the price point. Removing One pump clips and dacron patches is huge innovation to save weight:) for North. I am sorry, the Orbit Pro is a joke. Maybe my level is not good enough but I prefer my Orbit even they replaced it already 3 times because of my LE clothing theme. Ahh and again, to the comments, Duotone has bladder issues and line snaps, Cabrinha has a shitty bar (ask Lorenzo), Core XR Pro are exploding when you pump it to 10 psi, etc. etc....

Dlab v orbit pro

[@justinsmith4562]

nah i'll just stick with the orbit
