Performance/ Freeride/ Crossover 

The Cabrinha Switchblade is the best selling kite of all time for a reason:

The Cabrinha Switchblade is back again with its uncompromising performance and durability. With a completely new Nano ripstop canopy material the 2020 Cabrinha Switchblade tougher than ever before. In addition to the the Nano ripstop fabric's superior durability which has a tear strength twice as high as last year, the added ripstop fibers also decrease the stretch of the fabric resulting in a more responsive kite that lasts longer.

The Switchblade is best performance freeride kite out there making it great for riders of all levels in any environment. If you've never been on a Switchblade, come out and demo one at our Waves Village Watersports Resort in the Outer Banks and see what you've been missing.

What we like about the 2020 Cabrinha Switchblade:

The Switchblade is the best all around kiteboarding kite out there from beginner to pro, everyone can use a Switchblade. Switchblades are very stable and predictable which makes it a great kite for beginners, and it's that same predictability that makes it such a good freestyle kite for the pros. Switchblades are also one of the easiest kites to relaunch when you crash a feature that we can all appreciate. The upwind ability of the Switchblade is also amazing making it easier when learning how to go upwind as well as when you are enjoying the boosting performance of the highest jumping kite on the market. Finally we like the Switchblades because they have massive amounts of low end power and great de-powerability making a much wider usable wind range per size than a lot of other kites, so much in fact that you can usually replace a 3 kite quiver from other kites with 2 Switchblades.

Designed for the discerning rider who values unrivaled predictability and uncompromising high end performance, the Switchblade is made for those that want style, power, performance and craftsmanship.

The Switchblade’s reputation for being the world’s highest performance freeride kite not only comes from the thousands of customers who hail its praise, but from its countless world titles. Fastest sailing craft in the world (2010). King of the air (2017). Worlds highest tow-up jump (2018).

What's most amazing about the Switchblade is that all this performance comes in one of the easiest to use packages. Its balance and power delivery make this kite light to the touch and simple to fly. Whether you are working on your freestyle game or testing your limits in boosting incredible air, the Switchblade will deliver with a level of predictability and reliability that can not be found anywhere else.
