The Cabrinha FX2 kite has been specifically designed for riders that mix hooked and unhooked freestyle tricks, love jumping big and kiteloops.
A true crossover kite, the FX2 gives riders the tools to take to the sky in the Big Air realm delivering fast powerful loops with amazing catch ability, but with a change of bridle, they then have a no compromise freestyle machine that will allow you to push your limits and the boundaries of what you thought possible.
The new Hybrid Frame and HRD Lite materials have further increased the range of the FX2 to allow for an increased low end range, and also manoeuverability in the higher winds and during double loops.
The FX2 implements an upright modified C shape design to get the best performance characteristics of a C shape with the versatility of a hybrid outline. The FX2 delivers a fast turn in a tight arc which makes it perfect for kite looping whether you are hooked or unhooked. Its lean entry and profile allows the kite to reach its zenith after a loop to give you a soft and controlled landing.
The pulley-less bridle is short and tight, increasing reactivity and user feedback. Its lightning fast turning speed, direct steering, and quick relaunch make it perfect for intermediate to highly advanced riders.
Features:
2 Personalities:
Where you choose big air or freestyle, both seamlessly combine into one high performing freeride kite.
Butter Smooth Control:
The FX2 combines a smooth power delivery with excellent on-demand depower. This culminates in an incredibly high performing kite that is exceptionally easy to fly.
Forward pull and quick recovery from kiteloops are achieved by the rigid 3 strut hybrid C shape.
Direct Steering:
The no pulley bridle offers direct steering input and feedback.
6-Line Steering:
Adjustment to the 6 line ‘ultimate freestyle’ mode unshackles the FX2 into a new beast. The more speed and pop, the greater the slack and recovery.

The FX2 kite is specifically designed for riders that mix hooked and unhooked freestyle tricks, love jumping big and kiteloops. The world of Freestyle / Crossover kiting has evolved into an exciting genre in our sport. Once a very narrow and technical discipline is now a mix of technical tricks and massive aerial maneuvers, both hooked-in and unhooked. For this you need a kite with the sensitivity and ‘slack’ when unhooked and the ability to boost a massive hooked-in kite loop. The FX2 delivers on these two fronts and more with the power and handling to take your riding seriously.
The Cabrinha Operating System (C.O.S) was made to make its use so easy, that the rider can concentrate on their next jump, or wave.
This is the most feature rich control system to date, but the package is so simple and intuitive to use that anyone can feel the full benefits.
Giving you complete control and awareness while in the sky and allows precise input when you need it most. The ergonomic new safety system gives you complete confidence in the wildest of conditions while allowing a full range of movement when the bar is pulled in and levered either side during Kiteloops.
It’s a do it all bar for any level of kiteboarder.
