04 CABRINHA MOTO XL APEX
PERFORMANCE LIGHTWIND / CROSSOVER
For all kite designers, threshold winds have always presented the greatest obstacle. Do you build a light kite that forgoes the low end power that gets you moving, or a powerful kite that sacrifices turning and playfulness?
Pat Goodman was able to expertly create the ideal balance of power and pleasure by utilizing the materials utilized in the Apex Series, which builds upon the wildly popular Moto X base.
The new reduced weight bladders and the ultra-light Ultra HT not only reduce weight but also contribute to the kite's dynamic and enjoyable feel.
The kite you need in your arsenal is the Moto XL Apex. The best way to save a session, it will make you come out of the water with that smile that tells everyone how much fun you had.
