HIGH PERFORMANCE FREERIDE
Sizes: 4m / 4.5m / 5.5m
When you demand direct control and instant responsiveness on the water, the 2026 Cabrinha Mantis Apex Wing delivers a light, rigid frame engineered for rider precision. Built with an ultra-light Aluula Gold center section, you'll feel immediate feedback with every gust and pump while enjoying dependable canopy stability during your glide. Cabrinha fine-tuned the frame tension and progressive wingtip twist so you can sheet in effortlessly without losing efficiency. Whether you're blasting across flat water or carving down swell, this wing keeps you tuned in and connected to your hydrofoil.
What Cabrinha has to say:
The Mantis has been a benchmark for Cabrinha and the wing foil world since its inception. A product that not only helped define its place in the market, but also led the way to many others who have tried to tap into its special feeling. With this foundation in mind, we went to work to create the Mantis Apex.
At the core of the Apex is Aluula Gold, a material that's as light as it is responsive. By building it into the center section of the leading edge and strut—and utilizing HTD Lite in the wingtips—we've created a wing that reacts faster, holds its shape longer, and gives back exactly what you put in.
The Mantis Apex is more than high end performance. The wing breathes with you, remaining active in the gusts and stable in the glide. It's sharper, more controlled, and more intuitive. For us, design isn't about trends. It's about feel. And when something feels this right, you know it's built with purpose.

Materials and Care
- Do NOT leave your wing exposed to sunlight for long periods of time. Between sessions, choose a shaded area to secure your wing. When not in use, stow away.
- Always dry your wing prior to rolling or folding. Folding or rolling a wing when wet may affect the color clarity and longevity.
- It is recommended to wash the wing components with fresh water and dry before storing.
