Cabrinha Nitro Apex 2027 Kite

Explosive big air kite for hangtime and kiteloops from Cabrinha

Afraid of heights? Then you might want to look for another kite. The Cabrinha Nitro Apex 2027 Kite is without a doubt 100% designed for big air, hangtime and kiteloops. Legendary kite designer Pat Goodman created a completely new Nitro with one goal in mind: boosting higher and staying in the air longer. At Cabrinha, this is the go-to kite for those nuking wind days when you want to go absolutely massive.

At the heart of the Nitro Apex is a hybrid frame. Cabrinha uses Aluula laminate in key areas, specifically the outer struts. Aluula has an incredible strength-to-weight ratio, making these struts both lighter and stiffer. You'll notice the difference in the high-end and during powerful kiteloops. The kite holds its shape, the profile doesn't compress from leading edge to trailing edge during fast manoeuvres and the Nitro remains stable even under extreme loads. Thanks to its reduced weight, the kite also flies faster through the wind window. The HT140 leading edge takes things even further. This material allows for a smaller leading edge diameter, reducing drag and increasing turning speed.

Compared to previous versions, the Nitro features a completely new outline. Combined with the thinner leading edge, this kite cuts through the air more efficiently than ever. As a result, it delivers impressive low-end performance in lighter winds while remaining easy to control when the wind really picks up. Cabrinha has also practically removed the speed limiter. You can keep building board speed without feeling like you're hitting a ceiling. More speed means more energy during takeoff, resulting in even higher boosts. The high aspect ratio, high sweep and swept wingtips reduce drag and improve aerodynamic efficiency, giving you extra lift and massive hangtime.

The 7-point precision bridle with a single sliding pulley provides plenty of control. This combination delivers a free, dynamic steering response and allows the kite to rotate tightly around its axis during pivot turns. New for this model is the Vert-X bridle. This allows you to fly the Nitro with either the High-Y or Low-V Unify setup, depending on your riding style and the conditions, without changing the kite's arc. One of the biggest improvements is the feedback through the bar. When you're upside down in a kiteloop, you want to know exactly where your kite is. The Nitro gives you that confidence, with predictable recovery after every loop.

Cabrinha has also paid attention to the practical details. The Teijin D2 ripstop canopy is lightweight and durable, while strong TPU bumpers protect the seam between the canopy and leading edge when the kite is resting on a hard surface. With the Airframe single point inflation system, you can inflate your kite quickly and pack it away just as easily. Already dreaming about your next storm session and curious how high you can really boost? Then the Cabrinha Nitro Apex 2027 deserves a spot in your quiver.
