Cabrinha MANTIS APEX
The Mantis Apex by Cabrinha has quickly established itself as a leading product in the wing foil industry, building upon the legacy of the original Mantis. This innovative wing combines a history of excellence with cutting-edge technology, providing an unrivaled experience for riders. At the heart of the Mantis Apex is Aluula Gold, a lightweight yet highly responsive material that...
Cabrinha AER
The AER is an all-new wing from Cabrinha that goes against the flow of the current design brief in the industry. It’s a project wing that started out shedding weight to see what was possible and then surprised the team with just how versatile it was. Gone are the booms and hard handles, and making a comeback are some premium...
Cabrinha MANTIS
The Mantis is Cabrinha’s all-around freeride, wave and big air wing. It’s undergone quite a lot of upgrades over the last year’s model and looks set to be the wing of choice for those riders who aren’t into freestyle but love everything else winging offers. In addition to a new profile and shape, there are also some new materials and...
Cabrinha Bump
Prone foiling has been a part of the hydrofoil riding scene ever since modern day hydrofoils came into play. In the beginning, it posed a great challenge to figure out how to ride and foil properly. However, the barriers have been broken down and now, with the right equipment and board, anyone can enjoy the world of prone foiling. The...
Cabrinha Code
The evolution of the Code board is a shining example of how things improve with time, like a fine wine. As the foils and wings advance, the Code has undergone refinements to cater to the intricacies of this incredible sport. They have increased the volume flow across the entire range, introduced a recessed deck, and adjusted the buoyancy distribution. This...
Cabrinha Link
As passionate wingfoilers, their screens are constantly graced with images of people charging waves or taking to the skies. While these images may seem out of reach for most, with the right equipment, anything is possible. The barrier of entry into sinker board riding has been broken with a wide range of sizes and adaptive strap mounting options. The Link...
Cabrinha Mantis
The ‘04’ Cabrinha collection release brings the 4th generation of the Mantis. Cabrinha promises that the “04 Mantis marks the biggest evolutionary step for this iconic wing”. With so many prominent design and construction improvements, this seems like a pretty fair statement! The predecessor to the ‘04’ mantis set a very high benchmark. It was a versatile wing comfortable with...
Cabrinha Swift
The recent downwind foiling hype has kept the pace of foiling equipment development at an all-time high and has had a huge impact on board designs. Facebook groups have been rife with posts about the secondary use case (or primary, depending on your circumstance!) of downwind boards being light wind-winging boards. Brands have managed to persuade many riders into justifying...
Cabrinha Vision
With the sport evolving at such an incredible rate, they need a wing that matches this evolution and takes them into the next generation of Wing Foiling. Known for its incredible range and light feel, the Vision is back in 04. Increased low-end power in the smaller sizes, refined airflow across the board, and the lightest weight light wind wings...
Cabrinha Fusion H-Series MKII
The Cabrinha H-SERIES is back with an updated design and promises an even more efficient and high-performance package than before. With Cabrinha’s foil offering currently being relatively small, the H-SERIES MKII will hold the flag as their higher aspect design for all foiling disciplines. If it is anything like its predecessor, we know it will deliver both the speed and...
Cabrinha Mantis Apex
The Cabrinha Mantis Apex is the first high-performance alternate construction methodology wing to hit the market from the brand. Whilst the Apex shares part of its name with the Mantis, and the brand describes it as an evolution from the original Mantis, it is a noticeably different beast! It does intend to meet the exact design requirements of the Mantis...
Cabrinha Mantis V3
The Mantis is the wing most synonymous with Cabrinha, and the previous two versions have acquired many loyal fans over the years. It has always been an easy to use wing that aims to provide high levels of accessible performance for all disciplines. Having spent a good amount of time on the second version, I was looking forward to seeing...
