NITRO
PERFORMANCE FREERIDE / BIG AIR
SIZES: 6 / 7 / 8 / 9 / 10 / 12
In 2004 Cabrinha took big air kiting to a new level with the Nitro. A kite that was ahead of its time, it powered riders to the top of the podiums around the world. 19 years later we have broken the boundaries in the big air realm and are bringing it back to our roots.
The Nitro is back. A Pat Goodman design from Cab Design Works, which is the pinnacle of Big Air kiting.
Development was a no holds barred approach to see just what could be created to reach the extremities of height and stability. An Apex series product, the Nitro utilizes the most cutting edge materials, purposely developed for use in inflatable structures to be flown in the extreme demands of big air kiting. With phenomenal warp and weft elongation strength, especially under load, Ultra HT material keeps the kite in a stable arc, but the reactive bias movement allows the kite to turn even when under increased pressure allowing the kite to really fly and recover from loops.
The sport of Big Air kiting is more extreme now than ever before. Tricks, which were individual in the past are now combined into one jump, and the demands on the product have never been higher. To ride to the extremes, you need a kite that will get you there, and the Nitro is that kite.
Features:
NEW: Lightweight canopy design for reduced weight and reactive performance
NEW: Sprint 3.0
NEW: Ultralite bladders for an overall lighter weight kite
NEW: Trailing edge EVA rigidity battens
Nano Ripstop Canopy: Durability, stability and responsiveness
NEW: Ultra HT - strong, stable and responsive material, exclusive to the NITRO kite
NEW: Durable TPU leading edge bumpers

FX2
FREESTYLE / CROSSOVER
SIZES: 7 / 8 / 9 / 11 / 13
Air and style are two words synonymous within the board sport industry. Most people develop their skills to achieve one or both of these terms, but to really master them both, you need a product that will allow you to get there.
A true crossover kite, the FX2 gives riders the tools to take to the sky in the Big Air realm delivering fast powerful loops with amazing catch ability, but with a change of bridle, they then have a no compromise freestyle machine that will allow you to push your limits and the boundaries of what you thought possible.
The new Hybrid Frame and HRD Lite materials have further increased the range of the FX2 to allow for an increased low end range, and also maneuverability in the higher winds and during double loops.

PERFORMANCE FREERIDE
All-round performance and versatility in a huge range of conditions will spark your motivation to push your progression and go for bigger jumps.
We completely redesigned the Spark and newly calculated its lift distribution leading to a more sportive behavior. A slightly wider but flatter wing tip reduces bar pressure and increases the Spark’s turning speed, which leads to a very agile handling.
In order to stabilize the tips during fast turns and small radius loops, the side strut was moved slightly towards the tip.
The flatter leading edge bending curve design in the center improves the Spark’s performance, especially on upwind tacks.
With the addition of the Spark 15 LW and 17 LW you’ll be able to utilize the stable flying characteristics, controllability, power and great hang time in a wider range of conditions.
The Spark combines easy jumping, low bar pressure and control with power, great lift and sportive handling, which allows you to enjoy its outstanding versatility in a huge wind range.

Predictable and versatile, the Triad has had some big upgrades this year. The kite is not only perfect for taking your twin tip riding up a level, but it now excels in all types of surf riding. The wingtip shape has been redesigned to increase drift and down the line performance. The kite has been swept back to increase turning speed and lighten the bar pressure. With a lower aspect ratio, the Triad is faster and lighter, making it perfect for navigating tricky sections in the waves, but maintains its predictable flying characteristics, promoting progression in all disciplines. The Triad maintains its sheet in and go performance due to its luff strut and fairly deep draft, making it an easy kite to progress from beginner to higher level riding. We have redesigned the dacron structure of the kite to strategically place reinforcements only where needed, increasing strength and decreasing overall weight. This multifaceted kite merges ease of use, surf performance, and light responsive bar feel into one intuitive package.

LIGHTWIND FREERIDE / FOIL
Not only performance at the extreme low-end is guaranteed with the One, which also provides incredible agility and controllability in stronger winds.
A more boxy wing tip shape makes the handling smoother and more balanced, facilitates relaunching the One and leads to improved upwind performance.
The dedicated light-wind profile with low drag wing tips provides a huge low-end without sacrificing control, when the wind picks up.
This profile also further boosts the One’s upwind abilities, especially in light wind conditions. The combination of the progressive profile-volume distribution over the wing span and its progressive arc leads to very agile and dynamic handling.
Due to its lightweight construction the One is perfectly suited for foiling, especially in the smaller sizes.
With its huge wind range the One allows you to enjoy your kiteboarding and kitefoiling session in marginal wind conditions, but also when the wind increases drastically.
