Any reason why you would want it to pivot ?
to be honest my point for view its a gimmick !
But hay everyone has there own preferences ! just as easy spinning the bar as you ride out of the trick

Thought it might be a gimmick. Hadnt thought about the unhooking bit but makes perfect sense.

Enjoyed Thursday but was close to my limit, would have been better off on a 7M but fun all the same. First time used that beach but seems great for that direction and loads of room for everybody.

Look forward to the next session, fingers crossed for next wk.
