2012 Cabrinha Nomad Kite
The 2012 Cabrinha Nomad takes its legacy to the next level. When it comes to Freestyle riding and looping the kite, the Nomad delivers. Its turning speeds, forward flying speed, and constant steady pull all result in one desirable kite. The Nomad accelerates as it whips through the radius of a kite loop, resulting in a full loop with plenty of time to climb back up to cushion your landing. If you like to unhook when riding take out the Nomad and be amazed. Whether in the surf or going for some wakestyle tricks, the Nomad is what you have been searching for.

2012 Cabrinha Quicklink Control System with IDS
Features
The all new QuickLink control system with IDS is all about connections. Without a doubt the most important piece of kiteboarding equipment is a control system with the ability to securely connect and dis-connect on demand. It shatters the status quo and sets an entirely new standard in design. From its functional form to its ergonomic geometry to its proven handling of security, the QuickLink control system raises the bar to a new untouchable height.
Internal Swivel - Manually unspin any twists in flying lines. The worlds first fully spinning center line landing system
Spinning Leash Connection - The leash can rotate freely around the harness loop Security Pin - Easily removable for unhooked riding. The center location of the pin also serves to reduce foul hooking. Intelligent Depower System: QuickLink uses our proven IDS method of 3 Stage Security. A system which was first developed by Cabrinha and has become the industry's gold standard in security. 3 Levels of Security:
Stage 1: Depower on Demand (push bar away)
Stage 2: IDS Activation (Push Quick Link unit away)
Stage 3: Disconnect from Kite
Ergonomic Design - The EVA bar ends are shaped to create a smooth transition from the bar grip to the bar end. The bar ends have smooth curves and edges and the EVA is forgiving when coming into contact with the body. The EVA bar ends have been lowered and widened to accommodate the entire line set wound onto them.
Floating Bar Ends - The EVA bar ends are buoyant enough to float the entire control system with lines attached.
Flex Grooves - The tips have flex grooves which aid in the bending of the tips while winding your lines onto the bar, and also aid in steering impulse.
Recoil - A spring loaded function which always keeps the bungee trim adjusters contained and well within reach. Making it the cleanest trim adjustment system on the market. With Recoil there is never a loose adjustment tail as seen with most above or below the bar trim systems.
Wider Center hole Fitting - Steering and sheeting is much smoother with the increase in the diameter of the center hole fitting. The hole is now 2mm wider in diameter and the radius surrounding the hole has been increased 10 degrees to allow for reduced friction when steering.
Multibore Tubing - Cabrinha was the first to introduce the multibore tubing to internalize the center mainline as well as the 500kg landing line. Internalizing both lines decreases the external clutter on the control system and the PU tubing serves as protection from the constant action of the bar against the lines.
