Take A Look At The 2025 CABRINHA MOTO X XL APEX!
Threshold winds have always been the toughest challenge to any kite designer. Do you make a powerful kite, but sacrifice turning and playfulness, or do you make a light kite, but sacrifice the low end power that get’s you up and going.
Building off the highly successful Moto X platform with the combination of the materials used in the Apex Series, Pat Goodman was able to skillfully handcraft the perfect blend between power and fun.
The lightweight Ultra HT and the new lighter weight bladders bring down the weight, but also aid in the fun lively feel of the kite.
The MotoXL Apex is the kite you need in your quiver. The ultimate session saver, it will have you coming off the water with that look on your face which makes everyone know just how much fun you had.

A unique and proprietary coating process increases durability and performance unlike anything you have felt before.
Pureform Panels provides the cleanest entry profiles to date, taking the performance of the Cabrinha products to all new heights.
Designed with the main focus to be ridden in the threshold winds where most kites can’t perform.
Lightweight with exceptional bias control, the Teijin D2 Material works hand in hand with the Ultra HT to provide the best in performance and reactivity.
The Moto XL's arc shape in conjunction with its light wind specifIc profiling delivers incredibly simple relaunch in the lightest of winds maximising riding time and keeping you on top of the water having fun when others are swimming in.

Engineered to provide a lightweight material with exceptional bias control and recovery, the Teijin D2 Material works hand in hand with the Ultra HT material on the Apex kites to provide the next level in performance and reactivity.
These new Durable TPU bumpers are strong, lightweight and durable. They crossover protecting the canopy to LE sewing. A new manufacturing process helps with abrasion when the kite is resting on a hard surface.
The Sprint 3.0 inflation system increases air flow from leading edge to the strut. The straight and angled valves allow for no kinking of the inflation tube. It's secure fit design also allows for easy maintenance.
Cabrinha's new apex bridles are thinner and have lower elongation that optimises efficiency and steering. The reduced diameter lines increase airflow efficiency as airflow passes between the lines.
An all NEW stylish expanding backpack allows for fast pack down and comfy transportation of your kite, pump and control system. Easily Expands to carry multiple kites in one bag leading to more adventure and less faff!
