2025 Cabrinha Switchblade Apex Kiteboarding Kite

2025 Cabrinha Switchblade Apex Kite

The Icon Reborn. Apex Performance. Unmatched Versatility.

The kite that shaped a generation returns—reengineered for 2025 with the biggest performance boost in its history. The Switchblade Apex now features Ultra HT material in its leading edge and struts, unlocking lightning-fast response and ultra-precise control. Whether you're chasing huge boosts, flowing through surf, or carving lines on a foil, the Switchblade continues to set the benchmark for confidence-inspiring performance in all conditions.

With the support and structure of a 5-strut platform, but the responsive, playful handling of a 3-strut kite, the new Apex design allows you to fly harder, higher, and cleaner—no matter your board or riding style.
