Description

Performance Freeride:

The Prodigy is the perfect first board as it will get a rider tracking upwind with its easy to control handling. From there it’ll grow with you as you quickly progress through the stages. The reason for its easy handling and smooth feel lies in the combination of its wood core, fast rocker line, and forgiving outline.

 

The wood core is responsible for its flex and dampening through the choppy water. The fast rocker will get a rider up on a plane quickly yet allow him or her to control their speed through the Prodigy’s superior edge control.

Built to last, the combination of a wood core and biax glass present a unique blend of weight and durability.

 

Cabrinha have designed an entirely new component set to lower the weight and to raise the finish standard even higher. Cabrinha's new 3D moulded foot pad fits like a well worn shoe. The dual density EVA will cradle your foot from side to side and protect it from the impact of hard landings. The widebody adjustable foot strap is extremely simple to attach and easy to adjust to a perfect fit.

PVC Core:
Vertically laminated Paulownia stringers produce a high compression / lightweight core. Paulownia has one of the highest strength to weight ratios of all wood species. The result is simple. Bullet proof, with a smooth consistent flex pattern.

Average density: 310kg/m3

 

Bi-Axial Fibreglass Laminate:
A simplified weave ensuring durability with a loose feel.

 

Hardglass:
A pre-laminated fibreglass thats pre-tensioned and cured under pressure. We apply this to the board in strategic locations to increase strength with a minimal increase to the weight.

 

Top and Bottom Sheet:
A lightweight and tough material. UV and scratch resistance properties make it perfect for Kiteboard production.

 

ABS Rails:
The ABS sidewall is laminated to the core during the lay-up process. It's designed to increase the strength while ensuring a smooth, durable and consistent ride.

 

Core Profile:
All of Cabrinha's core are produced with CNC milling. This means that every core is true to their design. Flex, profile and manufacturing consistency are all exact every time.

 

Flex Pattern (True Twin Flex):
A symetric pattern provides and identical flex, forward or switch, ideal for all types of riding conditions.

 

Mounting System (Stainless Steel Inserts):
Based on the industry standard 6 inch (15.24cm) pattern. Cabrinha's stainless steel inserts are custom made to eliminate pull out and spinning. Cabrinha's inserts are all 1/4-20 thread and sized to properly fit the core profiles. They are inserted from the bottom of the core, glued and are in for good.

Arrangement / Layup (Laminate):
Each board has its own unique layup. Cabrinha have tested many different laminates to produce the best combination of strength and weight. The Cores are profiled to dial in the specific flex for a design. Then the laminate is applied to support the flex and increase strength.

 

Stance Options:
The stance options provided are design specific based on the rider size and style. The Prodigy 08 features a 14/17 footstrap stance to suit the smaller target rider.

 

The Prodigy also comes standard with 4 high quality glass fins and a handle.

Rocker: The rocker is a key element in the overall feel and performance of your board.
ABS Shaped Sidewalls: Shaped sidewalls allow for precise edge control and provide a smooth transition on sliders.
Flex Support: Kiteboards are subject to high shock loads. Wakestyle, flat landing, kiteloops and sliders wear heavy on a board. By adding spot reinforcement, Cabrinha have addressed these loads without adding thickness or weight.
Binding Inserts: Cabrinha's stainless steel inserts are custom made to eliminate pull out and spinning.
3D Foot Pads: The new generation foot pads have been redesigned with performance. lightweight and ease of use. The new moulded EVA mid section reduces weight. As well the plate has been canted to give better ergonomics. A new outline provides a solid foot position and integrates the cut EVA grip area. The interal plastic is pre-curved and has the weight greatly reduced.
Wideboy Adjustable Footstrap: The strap has been totally redesigned for the new model. Fit, function, styling and ease of mounting have all been addressed. Traditional footstraps lose their fit as the strap gets bigger or smaller. By adding two side adjustments, the strap stays centred on your foot. The internally moulded Side Curtain EVA elimates any contact with the adjustment webbing no matter how large you make the strap. Even when the strap is in it's smallest setting - there is no added bulk. The outboard tongue can be removed to allow easy mounting of the strap. This feature also allows the strap to be left on the board for travelling.

Reviews

Fantastic Entry Level Board! Luke Monroe

This is a great entry level board for yourself, your friends or the whole family. I was surprised when I took this board to the beach! So many people wanted a go and got up on the water on their first or second attempt when they had been struggling with their own boards all day!

It is so easy to control and the footstraps are nice and solid and contour to your feet really well!

 

If you are in your first year of kiteboarding, starting out or are struggling to get on top of the water with your current board - get one of these!
