Cabrinha Moto XL Apex 2026

The Cabrinha Moto XL Apex 2026 is a light-wind freeride kite built on the Moto platform, delivering true low-end power without losing speed, control or fun. Each size is tuned to rider weight, so most riders need just one. 13, 15 and 17m.

Light wind riding shouldn’t feel like hard work. The Moto XL Apex sets the benchmark by delivering true low-end power without sacrificing speed, control, or fun.

Built on the proven Moto platform and refined for threshold winds through the Apex construction and unique profiles, the Moto XL Apex strikes the ideal balance between efficiency and playfulness. It gets you riding earlier, stays lively in the air, and responds intuitively even when the wind is on the edge.

The sizing is intentional. Rather than overlapping ranges, each size is tuned around rider weight, so most riders only ever need one kite. Choose the 13, 15, or 17 based on your size, and ride knowing the kite is working exactly as designed.

Precision craftsmanship and assembly allow the Pure Form Panels to create the cleanest entry to the kite to date, improving airflow and efficiency where it matters most. Combined with lighter materials, refined construction, and the new Airframe inflation system, the result is a kite that feels natural, balanced, and confidence inspiring.

The ultimate session saver, the Moto XL Apex earns its place in every quiver by maximising time and fun on the water.

Key features

• Smooth as Silk: Pureform Panels provides the cleanest entry profiles to date, taking the performance of the Cabrinha products to all new heights.
• Lightwind Optimisation: Designed with the main focus to be ridden in the threshold winds where most kites can’t perform.
• Teijin D2 Canopy Material: Lightweight with exceptional bias control, the Teijin D2 Material works hand in hand with the Ultra HT to provide the best in performance and reactivity.
• Easy Intuitive Relaunch: The Moto XL’s arc shape in conjunction with its light wind specifIc profiling delivers incredibly simple relaunch in the lightest of winds maximising riding time and keeping you on top of the water having fun when others are swimming in.
• Profiles: The unique profiles of the Moto XL cross the line between raw power and performance, giving you the power to get up and riding, while still providing the ability for the kite to fly forward for jumps and wind range.
