Re: Cabrinha Bars differences

I just bought a new 2022 Trimlite with the conventional Chicken loop. My initial take away was how heavy it is. Im replacing the 44cm fixed bar from 2017. The new center hole piece seems to be stainless steel instead of the old aluminum one. The ends are adjustable unlike the old one…..which likely...

Re: North reach vs cabrinha switchblade (3s vs 5s)

it really depends on what year SB you are referring to. The new 04 SB is very fast but still offers quite a lot of power. Is the really a noticeable difference? I tried very old SBs before I bought (I think 2014?) and I personally own 2018 (7m) 2020 (12m) and 2022 (9m) and really cannot see big dif...

Re: 7 strut kites to learn in 2024

I have a friend who’s looking to get into kitesurfing this season and was looking for gear to get started. I’ve found a good offer for a 2007 Cabrihna crossbow 10m. This is a 7 strut kite though and i was wondering if the low price point equals out the age and design of the kite. would it make sens...

Re: Cabrinha Contra 11m vs 13m

It just means that you are using a bigger foil, and when the bigger kite gets overpowered foil size matters. Smaller foil will handle the power better. I'd say 950 counts as big foil for your weight. I think maybe the larger effect is how fast the foil goes. The faster you go, the more apparent win...

Re: Cabrinha Contra 11m vs 13m

Interesting. I use a 950 front wing. What do you mean if I use a 1000+ front wing it lowers the top end of a 11m 1 strut? It just means that you are using a bigger foil, and when the bigger kite gets overpowered foil size matters. Smaller foil will handle the power better. I'd say 950 counts as big...

Re: The New Cabrinha Switchblade

This new is still very heavy, for example 9 m is 3.11 KG vs Harlem Force (also 5 struts) with 9m - 2.785 kg 12 m is 3.79 vs Harlem 12m - 3.224 kg.. So, what Cabrinha thinking writing this bla bla bla - This Lite Series kite utilizes the HTD Lite materials which make this the lightest Switchblade to...

Re: Cabrinha drifter for foil or Contra 1s?

I'm 100 kg and I have already 11 and 9 contra 1 s, just for foiling only. but I'm also interested wave riding. and I started thinking about 7m or 6 meters drifter. but I also would like to use it for foiling for strong winds. so maybe 7s 1 strut (but 1s is not dedicate...

Re: Cabrinha Operating System COS Bar (clarifications)

Howdy y'all! As it turns out, COS is COS. Product number is the same and there are no changes. We take a look at prices every launch cycle and sometimes they need to change. That would explain any change there. Enjoy the COS!
