2027 Cabrinha Nitro Apex Kite

Performance Big Air

Sizes: 6m, 7m, 8m, 9m, 10m, 12m

When you are ready to push your heights and jump higher, the 2027 Cabrinha Nitro Apex Kite gives you the confidence to commit. Designed specifically for big air, extended hang time, and kite loops, this kite delivers fast responsive steering and predictable loop recovery. You will notice increased canopy stability under high loads thanks to its lightweight Aluula outer strut construction. With its refined aerodynamic profile, you can drive your board speed across the water without feeling capped out. Whether you are throwing powered loops or floating high above the spot, the 2027 Cabrinha Nitro Apex Kite delivers the exact feedback and control you need.

What Cabrinha has to say:

Fear of heights? Maybe try a different kite. A no compromise design for Big Air, Hang Time, and Kite Loops, the all new Nitro is a next-generation kite design from legendary designer Pat Goodman. A purpose-built high performance product that utilizes Aluula laminate Material in critical areas, the result is a kite that delivers explosive lift, extended hang time, precise control, and the confidence to commit when it matters most.

The Aluula outer struts create a lighter, stiffer, and more efficient structure that remains stable and refined even under the highest loads. Combined with the high aspect platform and refined 7-point bridle system, the Nitro delivers exceptional boosting performance, fast responsive steering, and predictable loop recovery. The addition of the Vert-X Bridle allows riders to choose between the Unify High-Y or Low-V configuration, giving even greater control over the kite's handling characteristics and overall feel.

Who is this for?

The Nitro Apex is engineered for big air riders who demand maximum hang time, explosive lift, and precise loop control in pumping conditions. It caters to riders who want clear bar feel mid-loop and the control required to push board speed and jump limits.

Design Profile:

5 strut, high sweep, high aspect, hybrid strut.

Performance Features:

• Airframe Inflation System
• Teijin D2 Ripstop Canopy – Lightweight, high performing with exceptional durability
• HT140 Reduced Diameter Leading Edge – Lowers weight, improves aerodynamic efficiency and steering speed
• Aluula Struts – Increase strut stiffness while reducing weight
• 7-Point Precision Bridle – For responsive steering and pivot turning
• Vert-X Adjustable – Use with the Unify's High-Y or Low-V setup
• Single Sliding Pulley – For dynamic steering
• Swept Wing Tip Design – Reduces drag and increases efficiency of the canopy area
• High Aspect Design – For efficiency and hang time

Design Features:

• High Or Low V - The use of the Vert-X bridle allows the Nitro to fly in either the High or Low V setup, depending on your style of riding and conditions.
• Raise The Limit - Designed around Big Air riding, the Nitro focuses on hang time and kiteloops for pumping conditions.
• The Right Stuff - The strategic use of Aluula in the outer struts provides increased rigidity in high wind or high powered loops, while reducing overall weight.
• Speed Machine - Allows you to push your board speed without feeling a maximum limit.
• More Than A Feeling - Provides clear bar feel mid-loop and upside down so you always know where the kite is.
• Like A Knife - The outline combined with the reduced diameter leading edge cuts through the air cleanly across all wind conditions.

Tech Specs:

• HT140 Leading Edge - Reduces leading edge diameter to increase steering speed and flight speed through the window.
• Aluula Struts - High strength-to-weight ratio material in the outer struts reduces weight and stops LE to trailing edge compression during fast maneuvers.
• Bullet Proof Bumpers - Durable TPU bumpers protect the canopy to LE sewing against abrasion when resting on hard surfaces.
• AIRFRAME - Single point inflation system engineered for simplicity and reliable setup.
• Vert-X Bridle - Vert-X bridle with a single sliding load block allows adaptation to high or low V settings without sacrificing the arc shape.
