PERFORMANCE LIGHTWIND / FREERIDE

The Cabrinha Contra 1 Strutt has quickly garnered a reputation as one of the best kites for lightwind freeriding and has proven a versatile addition to any kite quiver. With its single strut design, this light and nimble Cabrinha Contra 1 Strut kite allows the use of much smaller sizes to maximize foilboardings true potential.   Featherweight control and amazing drift characteristics allow for low angles of attack while on foil, and the rear line tension increases steering impulse even when depowered. This dynamic Cabrinha Contra 1 Strut kite design will put an optimized Contra light wind kite in your hands whether you ride a twin tip, surfboard, or a foil board. 

Cabrinha Contra 1 Strut Features

• PURE PROFILE PANELS - Strategically placed panels allow for a seamless and smooth airflow over the most important area of the flying surface, creating an efficient and true to design profile that no others can match.

• MINIMALISTIC - Through intensive research and development the Contra 1S comes with one rear line attachment option. Simply put, this is the best possible option straight out of the bag.

• EFFORTLESS RELAUNCH - Even in the lightest of wind conditions the Contra 1S gives you the confidence to try tricks knowing any mishaps won’t mean a swim in.

• DRIFT - Superior drift characteristics allow for low angles of attack while on the foil. Rear line tension is carried through even when depowered.

• LIGHTWIND OPTIMISATION - Designed with the main focus to be ridden in the threshold winds where most kites can’t perform.

• AGILE AND NIMBLE - Single strut design allows the kite to twist and react like no other.

Cabrinha Contra 1 Strut Technology

HIGH TENACITY DACRON - Our Dacron is specifically designed for inflated kite structures. The construction of this material is very warp orientated using ultra high tenacity yarns with an increased thread count to combat elongation in the warp direction under the high inflation pressures. Lower elongation make for a more accurate kite with less deformation while in flight.
	NANO RIPSTOP CANOPY - A higher level of performance can only be achieved when the kite's design properties are supported by a stable and reactive kite material. Nano Ripstop does just that.
PURE PROFILE PANELS - Strategically placed panels allow for a seamless and smooth airflow over the most important area of the flying surface, creating an efficient and true to design profile that no others can match.
