The switchblade & FX are their big air / airstyle kites
I own a quiver of Switchblades and a quiver of AV8's and have flown a friend's FX. I much prefer the AV8 for hang-time / airstyle twin-tip riding. You just can't compare the hang-time of the Switchblade or FX to the AV8.

Since 2005 Cab has had a hang-time racing bow-style kite in their lineup (Crossbow, Velocity, Apollo, AV8). I'm just disappointed they gave up on this style kite. :(

Might be time to demo an Ozone Edge.
And I actually prefer Moto a little bit more than Switchblades
Yes, it could be hard to handle when the wind blows inconstantly but boy oh boy does it handles like a charm when the wind is ok

This is only one of the wildcard. Keep an eye on cabrinha.com as the wildcard page will soon load and show what models and sizes of kites and wings are available in what wildcard color combinations. Thanks.

What has happened to AV8 ?? Did they said anything ? Are there plans to replace it with something new ? AV8 style kite in ALUULA version would be amazing.
