ALL AROUND PERFORMANCE

SIZES: SMALL < 8 US / MEDIUM 7 - 11 US / LARGE >10 US

No kite has done more in the sport of kitesurfing than the Switchblade.  World Titles, World Records, Podium topping, all on a stock production kite that has also brought so many people not only into the sport, but given the perfect platform to evolve, improve and push their own boundaries of what they thought possible. 

For 02 we have given the Switchblade a further performance boost. The redesigned and rebalanced bridle gives the option to not only increase the turning speed, but also lighten up the feel of the kite.  A lighter faster kite not only extends the reach of this amazing product to different riders, but also allows for faster steering and control for jumping.  The five strut stable frame of the Switchblade really comes into its own in the higher wind ranges.  Here the legendary boost and hangtime of the Switchblade really shines.

FEATURES

The most critical piece of equipment in kiteboarding is the Control System.     A system that you not only you rely on for your safety and well being, it’s also the direct link between you and the elements.

A lot of work goes into Kite Design.   The Cab Design Works Team works countless hours tuning and modifying the way a kite feels  in order to make it the highest performing product on the market.   In order to get the most out of all the work, you need a control system that gives you a direct connection to the kite.   This connection needs to be intuitive and seamless in use, allowing you to focus on having the most fun in the elements.   

Introducing the COS.

The goal in the development of the COS was to make its use so easy, that the rider can concentrate on their next jump, or wave.

This is the most feature rich control system to date, but the package is so simple and intuitive to use that anyone can feel the full benefits. 

OVERDRIVE

Easy adjust Overdrive bar end with 8cm width and leader adjustment for maximum turning speed. Industry first dual density highly textured bar grip. Ergonomically designed asymmetric finger bar for intuitive and instant tactile left/right orientation. Soft touch bar ends provide a safe and stable steering platform. On-the-fly bar width adjustment and convenient line retainers.

TRIMLITE

Simple and clean trim system. Compact and durable stainless steel TrimLite Cleat™. Allows precise and positive trim adjustment. Light weight design. Elasticized trim line, internalized mainline and landing lines protected with PU tubing. Minimalist system with perfect balance and trim to match the changing wind conditions.

BIO BASED DYNEEMA

Bio-based Dyneema® fiber boasts the exact same performance as conventional Dyneema® with a carbon footprint that is 90% lower than generic HMPE fiber. As well as its extraordinary strength, bio-based Dyneema® excels in cut and abrasion resistance and has a high resistance to UV, a crucial benefit for its use in flying lines. So, whatever style you choose to ride, ride with the confidence and trust in a product that lessens your footprint, not your performance.

TOOLLESS

No tools needed.

COS RELEASE

An all new push click Quick Release is the foundation of the COS. Matched with the ability to interchange connection methods without tools, this is the most advanced system on the market today.

SWIVEL

The new dual tube auto unwind feature allows you to just focus on the next trick at hand without having to manually untwist your front lines. The Ceramic Bearings keep friction to an absolute minimum, just unpin the bar, pull it in and you’re ready to go.

DUAL PU TUBES

The Dual PU Tubes keep the clean smooth finish that Cabrinha riders are used to, but allow for an independent chamber for the 1X Security line to pass through.

If there is one wing that has helped shape and define the sport, it’s the Mantis.

Now in its 3^rd generation the wing which set the benchmark for stability and rigidity has been further refined to maximize the true potential of wing foiling.

Increased convex dihedral has helped expand the range of the Mantis by providing an increased power to stability ratio, combined with the new Convex Strut the Mantis V3 is the cleanest and most efficient wing to date.    A refined air foil section in the critical area of the kite has helped increase the low end power of the Mantis, further increasing its range of use.

FEATURES

Vision is a word that can mean multiple things.  It could be said that it relates to the increased range of sight that was incorporated into this new wing through strategic window placement, or  its new outlines, or it could mean the act of foresight to see where this incredible sport is going, and to create a product for the next generation of wing foilers.  How ever you take it, the new Cabrinha Vision is the next generation wing from the Cab Design Works Team.

GRADE B WINGS - Lightly used and may contain a patched pin hole(s). 

The original Mantis set a benchmark with regards to leading edge rigidity, and this year it has been even further refined, culminating in an ultra-rigid frame and also refined profile. Combined with a pretensioned canopy, this gives a crisp high performing product that maintains its performance through a wider range of conditions.

Refined sizing and wingspans allow for more progressive power in the small sizes, while the wingtip shape adjustment helps deflect water during start up, and also allows for deeper profiles to aid in power delivery.

The Mantis V2 showcases Cabrinha’s forward driving wing program and puts the ultimate in technology and efficiency into your hands to maximize water time and performance.

In 2003 a kite was launched to help people maximize their time on the water.  The name became synonymous with the light wind riding, and has since become a staple in many kiters quivers.     

The Contra 3 Strut continues this legacy and provides the rider with the ultimate blend of light wind power and agility to maximize time on the water in threshold winds.   

Its supported 3 strut frame allows to not only drive forward when using more a traditional selection of kiteboards, but it also provides a stable canopy and an increased high end range.

Regular Fit

The all-new Hollow Mast system is yet another example of the state of the art foil program from Cab Design Works. It nods to the critical & complete design approach of the team to view every foil component individually with a view to improve stiffness across the entire platform. It implements a bladder molded construction with strategic layering of carbon as far to the outside as possible. This culminates in our stiffest ever mast to front wing connection. This reduction in flex eliminates any lag in the turn and transfers energy while pumping seamlessly through to the front wing.  

Superior Torsional and bend rigidity.  Low weight and minimum drag.

• Optimized airfoil for low drag to stiffness ratio
• TE scallop for improved turning and efficiency
• Integrated high modulus mounting plate
• Bladder molded, hollow mast construction for superior skin compression, providing ultimate rigidity
• Premium high modulus prepreg carbon fiber construction
• Barrel Nut compatible(x-series MkII and H-series MKII)
• Tapered Fit
