What the team at Kiteboarding Closeouts thinks: We’ve been providing great kite info and reviews for the past 13 years and are excited to tell you about the Cabrinha’s new 2020 options.
The 2020 Switchblades continues the tradition of the ultimate control and ultimate all-around, does-it-all, go-to kite. If you’re torn about which kite get, you won’t be disappointed with the Switchblade. It boosts great with great control, feels really stable, relaunches easily, stays in the sky and now has even stronger materials.
Whether you like to play in the surf or prefer to kite in the buttery smooth shallows, the Cabrinha Switchblade inflatable kite can create the perfect power for any type of board you ride (twin tip, directional, foil boards). Its unique design fits all riding styles (freestyle, freeride, big air).
This kite has a flexible design and can be used with previous generation bars.
This kite has continuously been the go to kite for our instructors. It is simple and easy to fly and control upon launch and landing. After the lessons, you will see them boosting (nearly out of the bindings) to the moon on them. Got a question about the 2020 switchblade kite? Feel free to contact us about Cabrinha kites.
